Question
How do I use the Material function?
Answer
The Material function allows you to define the material properties of an object using either a database or user-defined information.
You can set the database for concrete and steel materials.
For user-defined materials, you can set parameters such as elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, coefficient of thermal expansion, and unit weight.
The values you set will be integrated into the subsequent CIVIL analysis file generation.
