TCOVT

Purpose: Used to define cover plates on top flange.

--> Given in girder input

List of top cover plate thicknesses (inches or mm) in order from left to right. (Also see TCOVB , TCOVSP , BCOVB , BCOVSP , BCOVT )

Note: Layered cover plates can be represented by equivalent cover plates (of combined thickness where layered) separated by a small spacing of, say, 0.1 feet. (However, if the width varies per layer, then this would need to be resolved into an appropriately assumed width.)
