Inherited properties

The following properties are inherited from the base class of the object

Name Type Description Quantity
Loadcase Loadcase The Loadcase in which the load is applied. -
Axis LoadAxis Defines whether the load is applied in local or global coordinates. -
Projected bool If true the load is projected to the region. -
ForceA Vector Force per unit length at the start of the line. ForcePerUnitLength [N/m]
ForceB Vector Force per unit length at the end of the line. ForcePerUnitLength [N/m]
MomentA Vector Moment per unit length at the start of the line. MomentPerUnitLength [N.m/m]
MomentB Vector Moment per unit length at the end of the line. MomentPerUnitLength [N.m/m]
Location Line Line defining the location of the load. -
Objects BHoMGroup<IAreaElement> A collection of IAreaElements (e.g. Panels) to apply the line load to. These are not required for all adapters. -

Derived properties

The following properties are defined as extension methods in one of the BHoM_Engines

Name Type Description Quantity Engine
IsNull bool Checks if a Load is null and outputs relevant error message. - Structure_Engine
IVisualize IEnumerable<IGeometry> Draws arrows representing the load. Visualisation will depend on the load type. - Structure_Engine
Visualize List<ICurve> Draws arrows representing the load along the length of the line of the load. - Structure_Engine
