Continuous at Start-Continuous at End[Yes/No]: Users can choose whether the deck is continuous or discontinuous at the start or end regions, which affects the generation of the finite element model. To ensure continuity between two different decks, users can select the "continuous" option for the end location of the first deck and the start location of the second deck. If the user wants to define the deck as discontinuous with a gap between two decks, they can select the "discontinuous" option and define girders end locations accordingly. Selecting continuous or discontinuous options will not affect the behavior if only one deck is defined. Material: The material used for the shell elements generated for the deck.
