Creating Joggles

Joggle on a Web or on a Surfacic Flange

When creating a joggle on a web, you can choose the shape of the surfacic flange edge of the part.

  • If you create an element above the part, a line for instance, and want the surfacic flange edge of the part to follow the line:
    1. Open the Surfacic Flange Definition dialog box,
    2. Go to EOP tab and select Element FD or Element FP in the box.
  • If you want the surfacic flange edge of the part to follow the joggle runout:
    1. Open the Surfacic Flange Definition dialog box,
    2. Go to the EOP tab and select Length From OML in the box.

Surfacic Flange on a Joggled Web

This topic provides information about the surfacic flange creation on a joggled web.

Be careful when creating a surfacic flange on a joggled web. Indeed, doing so is impossible when the resulting base feature (i.e. the joggled web) does not intersect with the surfacic flange support anymore, as is the case in the example shown below:

Web as offset by the joggle - view 1

Web as offset by the joggle - view 2

You can make sure that creating a surfacic flange is possible by using one of the following methods:

  • Either extrapolate the web beyond the support surface so that the joggled web intersects with the support.

  • Or select the surfacic flange support surface as web boundary. You can then create the joggle on web and finally the surfacic flange.
