Moving Load: p2 - Vehicle Definition || Wheel load & axle distance || Crane,Truck Load || AASHTO,IRC

In this video I will discuss about various components required to define a moving load in STAAD and how to add a vehicle definition with wheel load and axle distance considering different type of vehicle and crane.
** NOTE: There is a small CORRECTION related to the WHEEL LOAD ORDER - I will discuss this in the next video **
For any bridge or crane girder, load is applied on the structure from a moving vehicle and as location of the vehicle change over time, we need to find out the critical load position which provide maximum result. Though this seems like a complex process, STAAD is well capable of handling this type of load for analysis and there is a moving load feature available to generate all possible load condition.

Hi sir
When I applied moving load in staad and ran the analysis my vehicle is stuck in one place and does not move forward, any ideas how to overcome this issue?

Not sure, may be something wrong with the load increment value or with the initial position of the vehicle. Check those inputs along with load generation number.
