Create cross-section with DUENQ

Hello,

I want to draw a kedernut profile with DUENQ and determine the cross-sectional properties. I would like to use the profile later as a cross-section in the RFEM model.

However, I am having trouble correctly representing the fillets and the corners on the kedernut.

I have uploaded the drawing as a DXF. Could you please draw just one side or one corner for me? Then I can learn from it and understand how you proceeded.

Are there any recommendations for such profiles on how to correctly represent the fillets and the kedernut?

Hi mabdan,

you'll find in this technical article a video that you can definitely relate to for modeling your profile:

Also, in the 2017 info day, starting at about minute 46, you'll find another profile and the procedure:
