Floor loads in Staad or Area loads in Ram Elements are a mechanism to transfer loads to the surrounding beams. You can have a beam within the area that is not loaded, but the floor load patch always needs to be bound by a series of beams.

Is this possible in Staad.Pro? I'm trying to find out how to apply line/floor/area loads on a no beam line. Is a dummy beam a correct solution? Just for loading purposes only

Yes, you can do that in RAM Structural System. It looks like you already tried it, was there some problem?
