About this Block
What it does: The Section Body block sections an Implicit Body with a Plane to create an Implicit Body of the profile. Common uses:- Calculate Surface Area of a cross-section.
- The Profile can be used as an input in Extrude Profile , Revolve Profile , Twisted Sweep Profile , and Sweep Profile blocks.
