GDSPC

 

Purpose in Girder System Projects:  Used to define girder spacing in parallel/concentric geometry Girder System Projects.  (Not applicable to Line Girder Projects.)

 

-->    Given in girder system input

 

In Girder System Projects, GDSPC is a list of girder spacings (feet or meters).  The first value is the spacing between Girder 1 and Girder 2, the second value is the spacing between Girder 2 and Girder 3, etc.  The girder spacing for box girder bridges is measured between the centers of the box girders. 

 

 

Purpose in Line Girder Projects:  Used to determine lane fractions in LRFD Line Girder Projects.

 

-->    Given in line girder input

 

In Line Girder Projects, GDSPC is a list of girder spacings by tenth points (feet or meters).  Uniform girder spacing is indicated by giving a single value.
