Syntax
public BoundaryConditions NewAreaBoundaryConditions( Reference reference, TranslationRotationValue X_Translation, double X_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation, double Y_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation, double Z_TranslationSpringModulus )
Public Function NewAreaBoundaryConditions ( reference As Reference, X_Translation As TranslationRotationValue, X_TranslationSpringModulus As Double, Y_Translation As TranslationRotationValue, Y_TranslationSpringModulus As Double, Z_Translation As TranslationRotationValue, Z_TranslationSpringModulus As Double ) As BoundaryConditions
public: BoundaryConditions^ NewAreaBoundaryConditions( Reference^ reference, TranslationRotationValue X_Translation, double X_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation, double Y_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation, double Z_TranslationSpringModulus )
member NewAreaBoundaryConditions : reference : Reference * X_Translation : TranslationRotationValue * X_TranslationSpringModulus : float * Y_Translation : TranslationRotationValue * Y_TranslationSpringModulus : float * Z_Translation : TranslationRotationValue * Z_TranslationSpringModulus : float -> BoundaryConditions
Parameters
- reference Reference
- The Geometry reference obtained from a Wall, Slab or Slab Foundation.
- X_Translation TranslationRotationValue
- A value indicating the X axis translation option.
- X_TranslationSpringModulus Double
- Translation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Translation is not "Spring".
- Y_Translation TranslationRotationValue
- A value indicating the Y axis translation option.
- Y_TranslationSpringModulus Double
- Translation Spring Modulus for Y axis. Ignored if Y_Translation is not "Spring".
- Z_Translation TranslationRotationValue
- A value indicating the Z axis translation option.
- Z_TranslationSpringModulus Double
- Translation Spring Modulus for Z axis. Ignored if Z_Translation is not "Spring".
Return Value
BoundaryConditionsIf successful, NewAreaBoundaryConditions returns an object for the newly created BoundaryConditions with the BoundaryType = 2 - "Area". is returned if the operation fails.

This method will only function with the Autodesk Revit Structure application.
