Building model geometry

 2D line model
 Continuous beam, with variable number of spans and intermediate supports.
 Pins and rollers for supports
 One cross section
 One material

Loading

 Moving load analysis for traffic loading

 AASHTO standard vehicles:
 Arema standard trains (multiple track reduction ignored, max of 2 tracks)
 Customized vehicles
 Lane loading (UDL)
 MPFs
 Impact

Design

 Load factor
 Resistance factors (shear, flexure)
 Safety factor
 Maximum allowable moment. Shear
 Utilization (scripted result)

Reporting

 Check points
 BM and SF
 Word template
