Mass p/m for an extrusion

Anonymous

Does anyone know a way (iLogic?) to calculate the mass per meter of an extrusion for profiles by example?

From the Exrusion profile, you can access the Profile.RegionProperties.Area. From there it should be straighforward to calculate the volume of a one-meter extrusion and depending on your material density, deduce the mass.

 

Hope that helps.

looks logical, but I do not have the knowledge to write a ilogic script
for this

I hope someone can give me a design setup
