Live Load Generation in Metric option

Its not mentioned in your question whether you are working on Leap Bridge Enterprise or RM Bridge .

I checked Leap Bridge program and in the Live load Library there is  Metric Design truck, Tandem and Lane option available.

In these options the distance between the axles are shown 1.8m .

So in the Loads TAB instead of selecting Design truck Select "Metric Design Truck, Lane and Tandem for Analysis and Design Purpose" , This resolve your issue.

Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Please see the attached screenshot for more information.

Thank you for the explanation , I shall test this issue and will get back to you as soon as I can.

I tested this issue and I agree with your findings,the program is placing the distance between 2 axles at 6m for metric units and the same file with US units the program is placing the axles at 6ft which is a huge difference and needs to be fixed. Please see the first 2 screenshots for more information.

There are a few workaround solution for this issue.

1 ) Automatic Generation of live load using Design truck + lane  under Compute Simple span reaction or continuous Beam Reaction option . Please see the 3rd screenshot for more information.

2) The other workaround solution is to manually change the x1/L distances for 2 forces in Y directions under Cap Loads so that the difference is 0.2L.

3) The third workaround solution is run the analysis in Conbox and then import the Superstructure reaction to RCpier.
