-->    Given in girder system input

 

A list of the number of wheel loads by tenth points on girder "i" for moment and shear stress determination.  If a partial list is given, remaining values will be padded using the last value in the list.  Used as an alternative to defining lanes and having trucks placed in those lanes.
