Primary Command CONSTRUCT

      

The primary command CONSTRUCT is used to define or to redefine existing sets, coordinate systems, spaces, transforms, time curves, space curves, load masks, and analytical shapes. It also allows the user to define geometric parameters, to merge geometric parts and to define the alphabetic and numeric parts of names that are generated during geometry creation.

CONSTRUCT has the following secondary commands:

FEMGEN command

2.3.1 CONSTRUCT COORDSYS - Define Local Coordinate Systems

2.3.3 CONSTRUCT LMASK - Define a Load Mask

2.3.4 CONSTRUCT MERGE - Merge Geometric Parts that are within a given Tolerance

2.3.5 CONSTRUCT NAME - Define names to be automatically generated

2.3.6 CONSTRUCT PARAMETER - Define a Geometric Parameter

2.3.7 CONSTRUCT SCURVE - Define a Space Curve

2.3.8 CONSTRUCT SET - Group Geometric Parts or Elements

2.3.9 CONSTRUCT SHAPE - Define an Analytical Shape

2.3.10 CONSTRUCT SPACE - Define a Working space

2.3.11 CONSTRUCT TCURVE - Define a Time Curve

2.3.12 CONSTRUCT TRANSFORM - Define a Transformation

FEMVIEW command

2.3.2 CONSTRUCT LINE - Define a line through the mesh

2.3.8 CONSTRUCT SET - Group Elements or Nodes

2.3.9 CONSTRUCT SHAPE - Define an Analytical Shape (Planes only)

2.3.13 CONSTRUCT XSECTION - Superceded; use CONSTRUCT SHAPE
