The inclination of the cross-section of a stiffener or a pillar along its trace line. A vector pair giving the local orientation of the web and flange directions at the point given by the Position element. The FlangeDirection is optional and not necessary for a symmetrical cross-section. Only one inclination is necessary for a non-twisted (straight) stiffener or pillar. Inclination has the following child elements:
| Child | Namespace | Type | Use | Cardinality | Choice | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FlangeDirection | ocx | ocx:Vector3D_T | opt. | [0, 1] | False | Direction of the stiffener flange. Not required for symmetrical profiles. |
| Position | ocx | ocx:Point3D_T | req. | [1, 1] | False | The position of the inclination of the cross-section. |
| WebDirection | ocx | ocx:Vector3D_T | req. | [1, 1] | False | Direction of the stiffener web. |
