StructuralLoadCase

Load case
Individual loads are not defined "freely". They must be included in load cases. A load case is a group, commonly used to group loads from the same action source. The load cases correspond with the professional terminology specified in national technical standards dealing with loads of civil engineering structures. The application of load cases follows the load management procedures that are usual and also obligatory in civil engineering practice.

Description of the load case
Action type
Enum
Permanent

Variable

Accidental
yes
Type of load in general. Other parameters depend on the adjustment of the load case type
Load group
String

yes
Name reference to existing StructuralLoadGroup object with appropriate settings of Load group type
Load type
Enum
Self weight

Others

Prestress

Dynamic

Static

Temperature

Wind

Snow

Maintenance

Fire

Moving

Seismic

Standard
yes
Define subtype of load. Depends on Action type property.
Subtypes for Permanent:
Self weight; Others ;Prestress; Standard
Use value "Self weight" only for cases of automatically generated load.
If your app is exporting self weight load as load objects, use type "Standard" and use field "Description" to carry the information it is Self weight (example: "Self weight load impulses")
Subtypes for Variable:
Others; Dynamic; Static; Temperature; Wind; Snow; Maintenance; Fire; Moving; Seismic; Standard
Subtypes for Accidental:
Others; Dynamic; Static; Temperature; Wind; Snow; Maintenance; Fire; Moving; Seismic; Standard
Duration
Enum
Long

Medium

Short

Instantaneous
yes, if Action type = Variable
For static standard loads, the duration of the load impact can be specified
