The PointStructuralReferenceOnBeam type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  NameDescription
Public methodPointStructuralReferenceOnBeam
Create information about a point load on the provided StructuralCurveMember
Top
Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAbsoluteDeltaX
Defines the distance between forces acting on the 1D member when CoordinateDefinition is Absolute
Public propertyAbsolutePositionX
Defines the position of the load on the 1D member in local coordinate system when CoordinateDefinition is Absolute
Public propertyCoordinateDefinition
Specifies the definition of the position. It may be absolute or relative
Public propertyExtent
The extent of force on the beam. (Only applicable for moment point loads)
Public propertyOrigin
Specifies where the origin for the position co-ordinate measurement is
Public propertyReferenceMember
The StructuralCurveMember on which the point load acts
Public propertyRelativeDeltaX
Defines the distance between forces acting on the 1D member when CoordinateDefinition is Relative
Public propertyRelativePositionX
Defines the position of the load on the 1D member in local coordinate system when CoordinateDefinition is Relative
Public propertyRepeat
Defines the number of forces acting on the beam. If the number is greater than 1, the forces are distributed uniformly over the 1D member
