Description

Members in GSA are geometrical objects used in the Design Layer. Members can automatically intersection with other members. Members are as such more closely related to building objects, like a beam, column, slab or wall. Elements can automatically be created from Members used for analysis.

A Member3D is the volumetric geometry resembling for instance soil. It can be defined geometrically by a closed Solid (either Mesh or Brep).

Refer to Members to read more.
