Purpose: Used to specify whether or not the slab braces the top flange throughout the bridge.
--> Given in girder input
Use of this condition causes the cured slab to not act as continuous bracing where shear connectors are not present. Otherwise, the cured slab is assumed to brace the top flange throughout the bridge regardless of where shear connectors are present.
