REPORTS
Right or Left (Width) Multiplier. A parameter which describes
the factor by which the slab unit strip must be multiplied to cover
the total tributary of a given span.
It should be noted that the results printed in the output, such as the
moments and reactions, refer to the total tributary (not effective
tributary) unless indicated otherwise.

Span. This column shows the span number (ID). If the problem
has a cantilever at left, its data precedes the first span by a line
starting with “C”. Likewise, in the case of a cantilever at right, the
last line will start with “C” describing the geometry of the right
cantilever.
Seg. This column shows the segment number (ID).
Effective width. Mirrors the data in the Geometry-Effective
Flange width input form
2.5 Drop Cap and Drop Panel Data. This data block gives the
dimensions of drop caps/panels for each support if a two-way slab
is the system type.. Figure 8.3-3 illustrates the definition of data
columns 2 through 10.
