Analytical iTwin Load Cases and Loads

Analytical iTwin Load Case objects and their Load Cause property are analogous to RAM Concept Loadings and their Loading Type property. The following table gives the RAM Concept Loading Type pulled from Analytical iTwin for each Analytical iTwin Dead Load Cause.
