SPL

 

Purpose:  Used to define web splice locations. 

 

-->    Given in girder input

 

A list of internal web splice spacings (feet or meters) beginning from the left bearing of the girder.  The spacing from the last splice to the end support should not be given.  In girder rating, SPL is required if the web thicknesses varies.  When generating girder designs, SPL separates the girder into web sections which are separately designed.

 

There must be at least one span tenth point on each web section.  No spacing should be given for the distance from the last splice to the right end support.
