Annex A: Profile Library Formcodes

Within SCIA Engineer, each shape within the Profile Library is uniquely identified by a so called Formcode. The Formcode defines the shape, the parameters which describe the shape and in some cases also additional parameters like distance between bolt holes, unit warping ordinates etc.

In this Annex the different Formcodes and their parameters are described.
