Structural Plate Weight calculation

Structural Plate Weight calculation

Can you add the weight calculation of plate to the structural catalogue please.

In the structural catalogue there is a plate thickness section ... with area weight and area weight unit... could this be used to calculate the weight of the plate?

There is also a section for material which has the weights inputted... could this be combined to calculate the weight of the plate?

I think - when creating the plate there are already enough parameters inputted and existing data in the catalogue to be able to calculate the weight of the plate.

Then of course this will give a better weight estimation, can be added to BOM in report creator, give a more calculated COG.

I am having similar issue. Our client has required a bill of material of plates, footings, structural profiles. Well, I am stuck in plates. Even if in the catalogue ther is the AreaWeight and UnitAreaWeight, those properties don't appear in the 3d model. Yet, they are in project setup ´late propeties
