Sections

Alpaca4d offers several parametric cross section definitions for beams and shells.

Solid rectangle section, Circular Hollow Section, Rectangular Hollow Section, I-Section and Generic Cross Section are provided to the users to assign mechanical properties to a beam element.

Constant thickness section has been implemented for shell elements.
