Purpose:  Used to define concentrated noncomposite dead loads in Line Girder Projects.  (See D1CON for Girder System Projects.)

 

-->    Given in line girder input

 

A list of concentrated noncomposite dead loads (kips or kN) beginning from the left bearing of the girder.  Assumed as part of steel contribution to self weight if self weight approach to loading is used (see SELF WEIGHT FOR DEAD LOAD 1 )  See PDL1SP for PDL1 locations.

 

(Note: PDL1 is only applied during pour 1 in slab pour sequence analysis.)
