Parameters

reference Reference

A Geometry reference to a Beam’s, Brace’s or Column’s analytical line end.

X_Translation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the X axis translation option.

X_TranslationSpringModulusDouble

Translation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Translation is not “Spring”.

Y_Translation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the Y axis translation option.

Y_TranslationSpringModulusDouble

Translation Spring Modulus for Y axis. Ignored if Y_Translation is not “Spring”.

Z_Translation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the Z axis translation option.

Z_TranslationSpringModulusDouble

Translation Spring Modulus for Z axis. Ignored if Z_Translation is not “Spring”.

X_Rotation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the option for rotation about the X axis.

X_RotationSpringModulusDouble

Rotation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Rotation is not “Spring”.

Y_Rotation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the option for rotation about the Y axis.

Y_RotationSpringModulusDouble

Rotation Spring Modulus for Y axis. Ignored if Y_Rotation is not “Spring”.

Z_Rotation TranslationRotationValue

A value indicating the option for rotation about the Z axis.

Z_RotationSpringModulusDouble

Rotation Spring Modulus for Z axis. Ignored if Y_Rotation is not “Spring”.

Return Value

BoundaryConditions
If successful, NewPointBoundaryConditions returns an object for the newly created BoundaryConditions with the BoundaryType = 0 - “Point”. . is returned if the operation fails.

Remarks

This method will only function with the Autodesk Revit Structure application.

Example

bool CreatePointBoundaryCondition(Autodesk.Revit.DB.Document document, AnalyticalMember column)
{
   // Get the start point reference of the column
   Reference startReference = null;
   if (null != column)
   {
      AnalyticalModelSelector selector = new AnalyticalModelSelector(column.GetCurve(), AnalyticalCurveSelector.StartPoint);
      startReference = column.GetReference(selector);
   }
   else
   {
      throw new Exception("Cannot get end point for selected column");
   }

   // Get the Revit creation document
   Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document docCreation = document.Create;

   // Create the Point Boundary Conditions for the start point
   BoundaryConditions condition = docCreation.NewPointBoundaryConditions(startReference,
                                                                         TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                         TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,

                                                                         TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0,
                                                                         TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0);
   if (null == condition)
   {
      throw new Exception("Can't create the point boundary condition for selected column start point.");
   }

   // Give the user some information
   TaskDialog.Show("Revit", "Point boundary condition created successfully.");

   return (null != condition);
