Barrier [RW]

The Barrier object models a standard-plan barrier carried on the haunch seat at the top of a retaining wall segment. It is distinct from the bridge barrier: it is hosted by a wall segment rather than a deck, and follows the segment's alignment and top-of-wall profile.

General

Segment: The wall segment that carries the barrier. The barrier follows the alignment and top-of-wall elevation of the selected segment.

Barrier Section (Standard Plan): Cross-section of the barrier, selected from the standard-plan barrier sections.

Batter Side [Left=1/Right=2]: Side the barrier face is battered toward. By default this follows the stem orientation of the host segment.

Start Offset: Longitudinal offset of the barrier start from the start of the host segment (default: 0).

End Offset: Longitudinal offset of the barrier end from the end of the host segment (default: 0).

Transverse Offset (onto haunch seat): Transverse position of the barrier on the haunch seat at the top of the wall (default: 0).

Barrier Material: Material assigned to the barrier.

FEA

Generate FEM [NO=0/YES=1]: Setting this to NO disables the analytical (finite-element) representation of the barrier (default: YES=1).

Quantities

Total Volume: Concrete volume of the barrier. (Read-only)
