LineLoad

Line load feature of a line.

Property	Long name	Unit	Description
Name	Name	-	Name of the LineLoad.
Comments	Comments	-	Comments on the LineLoad.
LineLoad	Line load	-	Uniform Load value is constant over the entire line. Linear Load value changes linearly along the line. Perpendicular Load value is perpendicular. Perpendicular vertical increment Load value is perpendicular with a vertical increment.
q_x,start,ref	qx,start,ref	F/L	x-component of the load at the start of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_y,start,ref	qy,start,ref	F/L	y-component of the load at the start of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_start,ref	|qstart,ref|	F/L	Absolute value of the load at the start of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_x,end,ref	qx,end,ref	F/L	x-component of the load at the end of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_y,end,ref	qy,end,ref	F/L	y-component of the load at the end of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_end,ref	|qend,ref|	F/L	Absolute value of the load at the end of a line when it is set to either uniform or linear.
q_n,ref,ref	qn,ref,ref	F/L	The normal component of a line load when it is set to either perpendicular or perpendicular vertical increment.
q_n,inc,ref	qn,inc,ref	F/L	The increment of a line load when it is set to either perpendicular or perpendicular vertical increment.
y,ref	yref	-	The increment of a line load when it is set to either perpendicular or perpendicular vertical increment.
