| Magnitude (At start)
|
Applies to all load types. Enter the magnitude of
the load. For those loads with Magnitude at End, the field says Magnitude at
start.
|
| Magnitude (At end)
|
Applies to Distributed, Partial, and Variable load
types. Enter the magnitude of the end of the load. For those loads with
Magnitude at Start, the field says Magnitude at End.
|
| Distance (From start)
|
Applies to Force, Moment, Distributed, and Partial
load types. Enter the distance from the beginning of the member that you are
applying the load. The beginning of the member is the first point that was
placed, or the i end.
|
| Distance (From end)
|
Applies to Distributed and Partial load types. Enter
the distance from the end of the member to stop applying the load. The end of
the member is the last point that was placed, or the j end.
|
Used to add an analytical
load to a member. To view the analytical members and nodes, you must be in a
view that lets you see these members.
