BMID

Barrier mesh identification number. Referenced from a DSHAPE bulk data entry.

No default (Integer > 0)

Grid point identification number of connection points. G1, G2, and G3 are required to define tria faces, G4 is required to define quad faces.

No default (Integer > 0, all unique)

1.	Grid points used in the definition of BMFACE entries cannot be used to define structural elements.
