# Load \[CBG]

## General

**Pier Cap:** Select the pier cap to which the braking load will be applied.

**Load Case:** Assign the braking load case that this load belongs to.

**Location \[Top Spring Node=1/Bottom Spring Node=2]:** Specifies the node location on the bearing spring element where the load is applied. Top Spring Node (1) applies the load at the top of the spring, and Bottom Spring Node (2) applies it at the bottom.

**Load Direction \[Fx=1/Fy=2/Fz=3]:** Specifies the direction of the applied force. Fx (1) applies the force along the longitudinal axis, Fy (2) along the transverse axis, and Fz (3) along the vertical axis.

**Load Magnitude:** Define the force magnitude for each bearing spring along the pier cap. Each row in the table corresponds to one bearing spring, ordered from left to right.

**Moment Direction \[Mx=1/My=2/Mz=3]:** Specifies the direction of the applied moment. Mx (1) applies the moment about the longitudinal axis, My (2) about the transverse axis, and Mz (3) about the vertical axis.

**Moment Magnitude:** Define the moment magnitude for each bearing spring along the pier cap. Each row in the table corresponds to one bearing spring, ordered from left to right.
