| Type | Left side | Right side |
|---|---|---|
| Barrier | Barrier | |
| Barrier | Median Strip | |
| Median Strip | Barrier |
Size of Plate Element
Specify the maximum size of plate elements auto-generated in the transverse direction.
b1, b2, ~ D, n
Referring to the guide diagram, enter the transverse cross-section data.
Supports of Pi Frame
Fixed Support
Location of a fixed support in the Pi-type frame bridge (Number of Bearings = n+1)
Supports of Culvert
Specify the type and modulus of subgrade reaction of the culvert.
Spring Type
General : Stiffness of general elastic spring.
Compression Only : Stiffness of general elastic spring effective in compression only.
"Compression Only" is applicable for 2-dimensional Box Culvert type only.
Modulus of Subgrade Reaction
Define the modulus for different locations.
Length of Elastic Link
Length of elastic link element (The magnitude does not affect the analysis).
