Constructs a tee section.

Constructs a tee section with the top left corner at (0, d), with depth d, width b, flange thickness t_f, web thickness t_w and root radius r, using n_r points to construct the root radius.

Parameters:

  • d (float) – Depth of the tee section

  • b (float) – Width of the tee section

  • t_f (float) – Flange thickness of the tee section

  • t_w (float) – Web thickness of the tee section

  • r (float) – Root radius of the tee section

  • n_r (int) – Number of points discretising the root radius

  • material (Material) – Material to associate with this geometry

Returns:

Tee section geometry

Return type:

Geometry

Example

The following example creates a tee section with a depth of 200 mm, a width of 100 mm, a flange thickness of 12 mm, a web thickness of 6 mm and a root radius of 8 mm, using 8 points to discretise the root radius:

from sectionproperties.pre.library import tee_section

tee_section(d=200, b=100, t_f=12, t_w=6, r=8, n_r=8).plot_geometry()
