1D entity loading applies to 1D members and elements that are of the beam, bar, tie and strut element type, and to a lesser extent, to cable elements. When loads are applied to members, they will be automatically expanded to load the appropriate finite elements.
Beam Influence effects can be defined here for use in an influence analysis. The effect of a moving load will be found for any of the following situations:
Beam Loads are a ways of applying load to beam members and elements offering the commonly used load patterns as different types. When loads are applied to members, they will be automatically expanded to load the appropriate finite elements.
