Specification in the excel
| Name of the column header | Type of data | Value example or enum definition | Required value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Name | String | FF1 | yes | Human readable unique name of the force |
Type | String | Standard | no | This property defines what the load is caused by, E.g. Standard, Wind, Snow, Self weight, Hoar Frost, Predefined, Plane Load, Water Pond, Water Pressure, Soil Pressure, Generated Water, Generated Soil |
Direction | Enum | X Y Z Vector | yes | Specifies the base direction of the load X, Y, Z - action will be applied in one of these directions Vector - size and direction calculated from vector |
Value [kN] | Double | -1 | yes, if Direction = X,Y or Z | Specifies the size of the load |
Vector (X;Y;Z) [kN] | String | (10;10;0) | yes, if Direction = Vector | Specifies the size of the load in , direction by vector |
