Diaphragms: Internal (within girders) and external (between girders) diaphragms
Boundary Conditions: Bearing fixity definitions
Temporary Support: Support elements for segmental construction
Sections
Define U-girder geometry and sections
Configure deck cross-sections and reinforcement
Define internal and external diaphragms
Set bearing fixities
