Parameters
----------
name
A String specifying the repository key.
a
A Float specifying the *a* dimension of the box profile. For more information, see [Beam
cross-section
library](https://help.3ds.com/2021/English/DSSIMULIA_Established/SIMACAEELMRefMap/simaelm-c-beamcrosssectlib.htm?ContextScope=all).
b
A Float specifying the *b* dimension of the box profile.
uniformThickness
A Boolean specifying whether the thickness is uniform.
t1
A Float specifying the uniform wall thickness if *uniformThickness*=ON, and the wall
thickness of the first segment if *uniformThickness*=OFF.
t2
A Float specifying the wall thickness of the second segment. *t2* is required only when
*uniformThickness*=OFF. The default value is 0.0.
t3
A Float specifying the wall thickness of the third segment. *t3* is required only when
*uniformThickness*=OFF. The default value is 0.0.
t4
A Float specifying the wall thickness of the fourth segment. *t4* is required only when
*uniformThickness*=OFF. The default value is 0.0.
