Refer to Usage of Table Tool to enter or modify the following data :
ID : Thickness type number
Type : Unstiffened or Stiffened plate type
In = Out : Enter 'Yes' when the in-plane and out-of-plane stiffness are based on the same thickness
Thick - In : Thickness for in-plane stiffness calculation
Thick - Out : Thickness for out-of-plane stiffness calculation
Offset : Offset of a plate section
Offset Type : Offset type (Ratio/ Value)
Offset Ratio : Ratio of the offset distance to the plate thickness
Offset Value : Offset distance entered by the user directly
