Almost all of the loading types previously discussed are available with a "transfer" variation. The transfer variations represent loads transferred from the structure above onto the level under consideration (via columns or walls). A few loading types are not available with a transfer variation, or have a somewhat different meaning with a transfer variation. These are:

Self-Weight

There is no transfer variation of this loading type.

Balance

The transfer variation of this loading type is for loads generated by the tendons in the structure above the level under consideration. Unlike the non-transfer balance type: multiple loadings of this type may exist; the loadings do not contain loads generated from the tendons; and the loadings of this type are user-editable. Loadings of this type are considered in the calculation of hyperstatic effects.

Hyperstatic

There is no transfer variation of this loading type.

Stressing Dead

There is no transfer variation of this loading type.

Temperature

There is no transfer variation of this loading type.

Shrinkage

There is no transfer variation of this loading type.
