TCL Command SUP

Syntax

SUP arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5

Description

Definition of superposition steps that are executed one after the other. In a superposition step, the input values are compared with the values present in the envelope and the superposition is performed according to selected rules.

Steps of a traffic load evaluation and other superposition steps cannot be combined in the same envelope. But the respective resulting envelope from traffic load evaluations and others can be combined.

More information about the superposition rules: Loadcase superposition

Arguments

arg1

Value	Dimension	Meaning
ADDLC	KEYWORD	Unconditional addition of the load case results
ANDLC	KEYWORD	Conditional addition of the load case results
ORLC	KEYWORD	Conditional replacement of the load case results
ADDENV	KEYWORD	Unconditional addition of the envelope results
ORENV	KEYWORD	Conditional addition of the envelope results
ANDENV	KEYWORD	Conditional replacement of the envelope results

arg2 (arg1 = ADDLC, ANDLC, ORLC)

Value

Dimension

Meaning

lcname

TEXT

The load case name is composed of the name of the construction and the load case name. If there is only one construction plan, its name can be omitted as prefix. Optionally, the calculation day can be specified. If the day is not specified, the end day is assumed.

lcname = schedule:loadcase(day)

FINAL is a defined keyword that denotes the end of the final creep.

arg2 (arg1 = ADDENV, ANDENV, ORENV)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
envname	TEXT	Envelope name

arg3 (arg1 = ADDLC, ANDLC, ORLC, ADDENV, ANDENV, ORENV)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
*	KEYWORD	The input values can also be factorized. The factor or factors follow as the next argument.

arg4 (arg3 = *)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
fact	DOUBLE	Factor applies to both cases, favorable and unfavorable.
(ffavor,funfav)	TEXT	Two different factors for the favorable and unfavorable cases are given in parentheses separated by comma.

arg2 (arg1 = INFL)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
VERTICAL	KEYWORD	Vertical influence direction
BRAKING	KEYWORD	Influence by braking
CENTRIFUGUAL	KEYWORD	Centrifugal influence
COMBINED	KEYWORD	Combined influence of 3 components

arg3 (arg1 = INFL)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
lset	TEXT	Name of the lane set

arg4 (arg1 = INFL)

Value	Dimension	Meaning
lane	INT	Number of the lane

arg5 (arg1 = INFL)

Value	Dimension	Meaning

Scopes

ENVELOPE

Examples

SUP ORLC "GradCool-linear-temp (FINAL)"

A temperature load case of the final state is conditionally superimposed.

SUP ANDENV "Grad-linear-Temperature" * 0.75

An envelope is factorized and conditionally superimposed.

SUP INFLINE VERTICAL "Lane Set_left" 2 1

SUP TRAIN "TS-200"

The specified influence line is evaluated with the specified load train and the result is conditionally superimposed.
