Answer:
When creating free loads, they are not linked to an object. Basically, "ALL" affected surfaces are loaded. This is also displayed in the attached graphic. If you define a free load (for example, a free individual load with 10 kN) and do not specify a surface, all surfaces affected by this load in the load direction are loaded. If two surfaces are included, the sum of the support reaction is 20 kN (no further loads are required in the structure).
Question
In the case of "free loads", the sum of the loads does not match the sum of the support reactions. Is this a program error?
