Kw
|
Code of the lane points created with MACRO4 (or 4X, 4Z respectively) |
|
El-from, El-to, El-step
|
Elements where lane points are created. |
|
x/D-dx-B
|
Definition of the distance of the lane point from the start node of the cross beam expressed as ratio of the distance and the distance between start and end node (x/D) or directly as absolute value (dx) --- at start point of the lane |
|
x/D-dx-E
|
Definition of the distance of the lane point from the start node of the cross beam expressed as ratio of the distance and the distance between start and end node (x/D) or directly as absolute value (dx) --- at the end point of the lane Note: Linear interpolation is made between start and end point of the lane
|
|
Relat.
|
Empty when distance definition, or 1.0 when ratio definition |
|
ey, ez
|
Eccentricity of the load application point perpendicular to the element axis in local coordinate directions. Reference line in accordance with options EYel, EZel (see Input pad) |
|
Phi
|
Dynamic coefficient for this lane. Note: The influence values are multiplied with this factor phi. This allows for instance for defining a lane related dynamic allowance (although in practice more often related to the load trains). However, if this factor is dependent on the span length and different in different spans, the selective definition for the individual lane points may be useful. An other possible application is a lane with variable width and uniform surface load. In this case it is advantageous to define a load train for width 1 m, and to define the actual width at the individual lane point as factor phi.
|
|
Ndiv
|
The number of required sub-divisions in the elements. Lane points are created at element begin, element end and any here defined subdivision points |
|
Ortho
|
Additional switch: The searched elements should be orthogonal to the lane. |
