# Bearing Load \[SPIG]

Point forces and moments applied at a bearing location.

## Bearing Load

**Bearing:** Bearing at which the load is applied.

**Stage:** Construction stage at which the load becomes active.

**Fx:** Force along the element local X axis.

**Fy:** Force along the element local Y axis.

**Fz (Gravity):** Force along the element local -Z axis. A positive Fz value corresponds to the downward (gravity) direction.

**Mx:** Moment about the X axis.

**My:** Moment about the Y axis.

**Mz:** Moment about the Z axis. Positive Mz uses a right-hand rule about +Z (upward).
