QUESTION: Is it possible to apply live load as point load in Conspan?

ANSWER:

Currently it is not possible to apply the Live load as point load . The workaround solution is apply the Live Load as Dead load on the beam and then change the Distribution factors and Load factors to mimic the Dead load as Live load.
