Load.AddMemberLinearVari

Adds LINEARLY VARYING load to beam or beams.

Load.AddMemberLinearVari BeamNo, Direction, StartLoad, EndLoad, TriLoad Load.AddMemberLinearVari BeamNoArray, Direction, StartLoad, EndLoad, TriLoad

Where:

BeamNo: Integer variable providing the beam number.
BeamNoArray: Integer variable array providing the beam numbers.
Direction: Integer variable giving the direction of load: X direction = 1, Y direction = 2, Z direction = 3.
StartLoad, EndLoad: Double variable providing the load value at the start and end of the member respectively.
TriLoad: Double variable providing the magnitude of the load value for triangular load. If it has a value other than 0, the load is regarded as a triangular load irrespective of values in StartLoad and EndLoad.

(Boolean) True (1) if the function is successful, false (0) otherwise.
