SOFiLOAD
Distributed loads for girder systems and frameworks can be defined very simple
via load distribution area (record LAR). The usage of LAR areas is shown in the
following example of a hall with steel girders.
X
Z
The system is generated with the program SOFiMSHA. The positive Z direction
is defined as gravity direction (SYST GDIR POSZ). The input of SOFiLOAD begins with the definition of the load distribution areas:

The load distribution area LAR 1 is defined for a roof area (oneside, in the
middle). The input is done via coordinates. A for M and N produces an automatic
partition.

The load distribution area 3 contains the complete longitudinal wall at one hall
side.

Because the load distribution area 4 is available at this front of the hall, it is used
via the automatic reference for the conversion of the input load into beam loads.

The divergence of the load type input is to be recognized then clearly at the determined beam loads. Only beam loads in global Z direction are determined for load
case 17. On the other hand beam loads in global Y and Z direction result in load
case 18, because the local z direction of the load distribution area is not identical
with a global direction.
