In Load Input view, Location from left has been modified to be
Location from edge of left support,
Location from left end or
Location from left bearing point
for clear span, full span, and design span respectively. These designate where the load is measured from; support point, end of joist/beam or inner edge of support.
The program now includes unfactored axial reactions for each load type in the Reactions table of Column Mode, whereas previously only lateral reactions were shown. The table has been renamed Reactions from Lateral reactions for this reason.
These reactions are helpful when using them as loads to be applied to a supporting member for combination with other loads on that member.
The following problems affected only the display of column reactions shown in the Analysis Diagrams when self-weight was automatically included in bearing design, and have been Corrected The self-weight was correctly handled in the Design Check output.
The factored bearing reaction was calculated using a self-weight component that did not include the dead load combination factor.
Previously When self-weight is the only axial load for a given load combination, no bearing reaction was shown.
The word Moving has been removed from Add moving concentrated live load in load input view and anywhere else it appears in the program. The IBC does not refer to these loads as "moving", only "concentrated", and the term "moving" loads ordinarily refers to vehicular loads on bridges, trestles etc., not concentrated occupancy loads examined at different locations on a member.
Due to numerical rounding, sometimes the area load value shown in the Design Check and Design Summary output reports was slightly different than that input, e.g. 199 psf instead of 200 psf. This has been corrected.
