RISA-3D,
Loads,
RISA-2D,
New
RISA-3D
and
RISA-2D
come
with
a
default
list
of
existing
moving
load
patterns.
These
are
listed
in
the
Moving
Loads
Library
which
can
be
viewed
by
clicking
on
the
Moving
Load
Patterns
button
in
the
Advanced
tab.
The
default
options
listed
are
common
AASHTO
loads,
but
you
can
also
add
a
new
pattern,
edit
a
pattern,
or
delete
a
pattern.
Any
changes
you
make
will
be
saved
to
the
database
on
your
local
computer
and
so
the
same
library
of
moving
loads
will
be
available
for
use
in
other
models.
You
may
combine
lateral
and
vertical
loads
in
the
pattern,
and
you
can
define
them
in
a
number
of
ways.
The
loading
direction
options
are
as
follows:
To
add
a
new
pattern:
Click
on
the
Add
Pattern
button
to
add
a
new
moving
load
pattern.
Enter
a
Pattern
Label
and
your
loading:
Click
OK.
The
Distance
value
denotes
the
distance
between
the
previous
load
and
the
next
load.
If
you
have
two
loads
in
different
Directions
but
at
the
same
location,
you
can
enter
a
distance
of
0,
as
is
shown
in
the
example
above.
This
example
will
result
in
loading
like
this:…
