Takes a horizontal slice through a sample wall to which this CompoundStructure is applied and returns a simple compound structure which describes that slice, i.e. a series of parallel layers.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 21.0.0.0 (21.1.1.109)

Syntax

C#
public CompoundStructure GetSimpleCompoundStructure(
	double wallHeight,
	double distAboveBase
)
Visual Basic
Public Function GetSimpleCompoundStructure ( _
	wallHeight As Double, _
	distAboveBase As Double _
) As CompoundStructure
Visual C++
public:
CompoundStructure^ GetSimpleCompoundStructure(
	double wallHeight, 
	double distAboveBase
)

Parameters

wallHeight
Type: System..::..Double
The height of the wall.
distAboveBase
Type: System..::..Double
The distance from the base of the wall at which to take the section. If distAboveBase < 0, then internally distAboveBase = 0 is used. If distAboveBase > wallHeight, then internally distAboveBase = wallHeight is used.

Return Value

A simple CompoundStructure representing a series of parallel layers.

Remarks

If IsVerticallyCompound is false, the output is a copy of this CompoundStructure.
