This is a template attribute. Template attributes can be used in filtering, or to retrieve data from the model to use in drawings and reports. For example, when you create a report, Tekla Structures replaces the attributes added in the report template with the corresponding object property values.
The template attribute PERIMETER gives the
perimeter of concrete slabs or polygon plates. In Template
Editor, the content type of this template attribute is PART.PERIMETER. It can be used both in textual templates and in graphical
templates.
PERIMETER can also be used for calculating formwork area, and for take-offs.
