BS-Editor 2: "Area loads" menu item

Using this menu item you define area loads and loads with limited plan dimensions.

The "x area load(s) to edit" button allows you to determine the number of area loads to be considered. Subsequently you can enter the sizes "p(v)" (= vertical) and "p(h)" (= horizontal), the ordinates and the "Depth" of the area loads. You must also enter the "Wall pressure shape" of the resultant horizontal forces on the wall (see also "Theoretical principles: Area loads"). To define an area load as a live load, activate the corresponding “Live” check box on the right.

Use the "Loads with limited plan dimensions" button, to define such loads (see also "Theoretical principles: Loads with limited plan dimensions"):
