&lt;p&gt;Please see AASHTO article 3.6.1.6 for pedestrian loading info.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since conspan assumes equal distribution of load to all the beams so the workaround solution for this issue is&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to input Pedestrian Distribution factor manually for each beam.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Live Load :&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Similarly for live load user can manually input the LLDF for only those girders where the LL is located.&lt;/p&gt;
