Material safety factor from file path [SOLVED]

Hello,

I am trying to assign steel elements with the correct partial factor according to the Norwegian code. I have created a material.struxml file and specified the material partial factors. Then, I import the material file into Grasshopper and create the geometry in FEM-Design. However, the partial factor does not match the value in my material file. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a solution for this?

Created material library

Import material into Grasshopper

Result in FEM-Design

Hi @hso

Can you please share your material.struxml and your grasshopper script to repliclate the error?

I created an example script to send you, and while doing that, I figured out that the country code given in Model.Construct overruns the partial factors given in the material. By not assigning a country code in Model.Contruct, I got the same partial factors as in material.struxml.

Thanks!
