# Load Geometry Definitions \[CUG]

In addition to the library objects, it is possible to apply different loads to the bridge. The first step is to define the load geometrically. OpenBrIM provides three options for this:

* **Surface Loads**: Common types include roadway, stay-in-place formworks, and utility loads.
* **Line Loads**: Utility loads are frequently used.
* **Point Loads**: Various utility loads can be applied.

For further explanations of each load geometry, refer to the documentation on the corresponding pages.
