Good day,
I am trying to model the wheel loads on the transverse section of a bridge. I have successfully created the moving wheel loads but I also want to apply the beam dead loads also.
I attempted to do this by first creating the dead load case details and then editing the moving load generation by adding the dead load case to the "predefined loads to be added" drop down menu.
When I add the dead load case to the predefined loads I get an error stating that there is not enough space.
Any help will be appreciated.
Please find the Staad pro file attached.
Bridge Deck .std
The issue was that you were trying to add a load case to a generation that was not defined ahead of the generation. I moved the load case 146 ahead of the load generation and renumbered it to load case 1. The load generation now works fine with the load 1 added to each. A modified file is attached for your reference.

Sye sir, u didn't tell the reason that y does it show as such??? u just told a process to not show up as "not enough space?"
When you are trying to add a predefined load to a moving load generation, that load has to be defined before the generation command. The error was generated because the load case 146 was defined after the load generation commands.
