Syntact logic

With the LOAD_SECTION command, sections can be loaded from the standard library with specified material. Sections can be named, too with the command. Names are displayed in the section administrator, and can be used as reference in further commands.

Standard sections can be loaded with the following syntact logic:

Syntax:

LOAD_SECTION "Library name of cross section" "Name of the material" "Used name of cross section"

If the "Name of the material", and the "Used name of cross section" is not defined, section will be loaded with default material (S235), and the name will be the library name of the section.
