.. include:: sub.txt ======================= BeamColumnJoint Element ======================= This command is used to construct a two-dimensional beam-column-joint element object. The element may be used with both two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures; however, load is transferred only in the plane of the element. .. function:: element('beamColumnJoint', eleTag,*eleNodes,Mat1Tag, Mat2Tag, Mat3Tag, Mat4Tag, Mat5Tag, Mat6Tag, Mat7Tag, Mat8Tag, Mat9Tag, Mat10Tag, Mat11Tag, Mat12Tag, Mat13Tag, ) :noindex: =================================== =========================================================================== ``eleTag`` |int| unique element object tag ``eleNodes`` |listi| a list of four element nodes ``Mat1Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for left bar-slip spring at node 1 ``Mat2Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for right bar-slip spring at node 1 ``Mat3Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for interface-shear spring at node 1 ``Mat4Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for lower bar-slip spring at node 2 ``Mat5Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for upper bar-slip spring at node 2 ``Mat6Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for interface-shear spring at node 2 ``Mat7Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for left bar-slip spring at node 3 ``Mat8Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for right bar-slip spring at node 3 ``Mat9Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for interface-shear spring at node 3 ``Mat10Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for lower bar-slip spring at node 4 ``Mat11Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for upper bar-slip spring at node 4 ``Mat12Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for interface-shear spring at node 4 ``Mat13Tag`` |int| uniaxial material tag for shear-panel ``eleHeightFac`` |float| floating point value (as a ratio to the total height of the element) to be considered for determination of the distance in between the tension-compression couples (optional, default: 1.0) ``eleWidthFac`` |float| floating point value (as a ratio to the total width of the element) to be considered for determination of the distance in between the tension-compression couples (optional, default: 1.0) =================================== =========================================================================== .. seealso:: `Notes `_
