Is there a way to create line loads of the type "variable" via the Dlubal Grasshopper plugin for RFEM6?
I cannot find any input in the LineLoad component to pass the list of location and load values (the L-Type "LOAD_DISTRIBUTION_VARYING" does exist, however).
If I import an already created variable line load from RFEM6, I also cannot find the load magnitudes.
Is there a workaround for this?
Hello adrian.schubert,
there is no component for line loads that allows defining the load parameters for the type "variable." This is currently only available for variable surface loads.
I am happy to take this as a customer request.
In the value list of the input L-Distribution, all possibilities that can be controlled via the web services are generally listed. However, additional inputs are necessary for this case.
As a workaround, the line load of the type "trapezoidal" can also be used, where the load parameters are defined via lists.
I have attached a file that shows how this could be implemented as an example:
Varying Line Load.gh (29.8 KB)
If you have any further questions or problems, please feel free to get in touch again :)
Best regards
Paul
