Purpose: Used to control intermediate transverse web stiffener spacing in girder design generation.
--> Given in girder design input
A list of panel transition point spacings (feet or meters), beginning from the left bearing of the girder, to be used when spacing transverse stiffeners during girder design generation. Panel transition points are defined to be the points where transverse stiffener spacing changes. Thus, between two consecutive panel transition points, the transverse stiffener spacing is uniform. Supports and web splice locations always are used as panel transition points. If transverse stiffeners are used, but transition points are not given as data, transition points automatically are place at points ten percent of the span length from both ends of each span.
