GetLoadTemperature

Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.SolidObj.GetLoadTemperature

VB6 Procedure

Function GetLoadTemperature(ByVal Name As String, ByRef NumberItems As Long, ByRef SolidName() As String, ByRef LoadCase() As String, ByRef Value() As Double, ByRef PatternName() As String, Optional ByVal ItemType As eItemType = Object) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of an existing solid object or group, depending on the value of the ItemType item.

NumberItems

The total number of temperature loads retrieved for the specified solid objects.

SolidName

This is an array that includes the name of the solid object associated with each temperature load.

LoadCase

This is an array that includes the name of the load case associated with each temperature load.

Value

This is an array that includes the temperature load value. [T]

PatternName

This is an array that includes the joint pattern name, if any, used to specify the temperature load.

ItemType

This is one of the following items in the eItemType enumeration:

Object = 0

Group = 1

SelectedObjects = 2

If this item is Object, the assignments are retrieved for the solid object specified by the Name item.

If this item is Group, the assignments are retrieved for all solid objects in the group specified by the Name item.

If this item is SelectedObjects, assignments are retrieved for all selected solid objects, and the Name item is ignored.

Remarks

This function retrieves the temperature load assignments to solid objects.

The function returns zero if the load assignments are successfully retrieved; otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

VBA Example

Sub GetSolidObjectTemperatureLoad()
   'dimension variables
      Dim SapObject As Sap2000.SapObject
      Dim SapModel As cSapModel
      Dim ret As Long
      Dim NumberItems As Long
      Dim SolidName() As String
      Dim LoadCase() As String
      Dim Value() As Double
      Dim PatternName() As String

   'create Sap2000 object
      Set SapObject = New SAP2000.SapObject

   'start Sap2000 application
      SapObject.ApplicationStart

   'create SapModel object
      Set SapModel = SapObject.SapModel

   'initialize model
      ret = SapModel.InitializeNewModel

   'create model from template
      ret = SapModel.File.NewSolidBlock(300, 400, 200, , , 2, 2, 2)

   'assign solid object temperature load
      ret = SapModel.SolidObj.SetLoadTemperature("All", "DEAD", 50, , , Group)

   'get solid object temperature load
      ret = SapModel.SolidObj.GetLoadTemperature("ALL", NumberItems, SolidName, LoadCase, Value, PatternName, Group)

   'close Sap2000
      SapObject.ApplicationExit False
      Set SapModel = Nothing
      Set SapObject = Nothing
End Sub
