Dear Xiong, 
 We have made many improvements in our latest version regarding the properties exposed in GUI and what is needed in a Python script. 
 Since you are using an older version the solution is a bit more complex; Matthew is right. Practically you need to define more properties as we need them to internally compute the properties for the calculation. 
 So, for instance, try the following: 
 g_i.embeddedbeammat( ("MaterialName",'pile'), ("BeamType", 0), ("PredefinedBeamType", 1), ("Diameter", 1.2), ("Thickness", 0.15), ("E", 36.00E6), ("w", 24), ("Size", 1.2), ("A", 0.494800842940392), ("Iyy", 0.0695813685384928), ("Izz", 0.0695813685384928), ("I", 0.0695813685384928), ("Lspacing", 10.5), ("SkinResistance", 2), ("Tmax", 10000), ("Fmax",200) ) 
 Note that the figure these out is by creating the material manually and using the echo command to get all the listed properties.
