For beams D is the vertical depth and B the width. For columns D is the dimension along X and B along Y.

Beams12 beams
A beam along X sits on a Y grid and runs from one X grid to another, and vice versa. It is split into an element at every grid it crosses, so results run continuously along the line.

Analysis options
Loadsone combined case — enter factored values
Single combined load case: enter already-factored values. Global Z is up, so beam and slab loads in direction Z are gravity and a positive number acts downward. Joint loads use signed global axes.
Beam loads — UDL/trapezoidal (w₁→w₂ over x₁…x₂) or point load P at x₁, measured from the beam’s first grid. Blank x₁/x₂ means the full length.
| Beam | Type | w₁ (kN/m) | w₂ (kN/m) | P (kN) | x₁ (m) | x₂ (m) | Direction | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Slab loads — area load on a panel, distributed to its edge beams by tributary area (two-way: triangles on the short edges, trapezoids on the long ones).
| Level | X from | X to | Y from | Y to | q (kN/m²) | Distribution | |

Joint loads — at a grid intersection and level, in signed global axes.
