Staad.Pro - horizontal distributed load

$
0
0

Hello, 

I want to apply horizontal load of 1.5kN/m2 on particular areas as shown on the snip below (footbridge parapets).

I have tried adding plate/area load but that requires a surface. 

Similarly I have tried adding floor load but I cannot apply it to certain areas. Additionally it takes diagonals into account and I do not want them to take any horizontal load. The third issue is that I cannot find a way to apply it in local coordinates, only global, hence I cannot apply it to the whole footbridge at once. 

Could you please advice on the best way to work around this? I have attached the model for reference.

Thanks

Hristo
