I need to run a bridge analysis under the special vehicle load - ST42.5. My bridge have two lanes and I need to find out the worst case when this vehicle run on the bridge on both lanes with a second lane reduction factor of 0.8. I have created and defined the special vehicle configuration/loads etc in the program. However when I was running the load optimisation the program can only run the vehicle in one of the lanes to get a worst case scenario? I then had to manually add the vehicle on the second lane but this is time consuming and cannot guarantee worst case results? Is there a way that the load optimisation can run the vehicle on all the lanes on the bridge (just like normal SM1600 traffic loads)??
I Have the exact same problem of the self created ST42.5 only applying to one lane not considering additional lane effects. I cant attach my modle as it does "not have a valid extension"

The easiest way to attach your model is zip it up and attach the zip file.
Two compilations are created from the same surface and carriageway. The ST42.5 only generates 1 vehicle the T44 makes 3 Please advise how I can get multiple lanes of the user defined vehicle. Kind regards,
