Line Loads
The frame "Line loads" contains a table with the list of input line loads. Each line load is assigned to a certain load case and input lines. Selection of the load is performed in the "Active load case" combo list. Adding line loads is performed in the "New loads of lines" dialog window.
The program allows for specifying either mechanical (e.g. forces), deformational (e.g. prescribed displacements of supports), or temperature actions.
The input line loads can also be edited on the desktop with the help of active objects.
The program employs the following coordinate systems (sign convention).
