Inaccurate finite element models and disconnected nodes/elements in the cross frame can occur if the entered station values are not >= the girder start station or <= the girder end station. This can cause stability issues in the finite element model. To ensure correct station input, users should select the start/end options from the station input. This approach is especially recommended for cross frames located at the beginning or end of girders.
Diaphragm Loc. Location [Interior/ Left Exterior/ Right Exterior]: Concrete diaphragms can be defined as either Interior or Exterior. If the exterior option is chosen, additional width from the center of the web can be defined.

Additional Width from Center Of Web: If the diaphragm location is defined with options other than ‘Interior,’ this parameter can be defined; otherwise, it will be marked as not applicable (N/A). Depending on the girders chosen for the location definitions of concrete diaphragms, this parameter can be used to assign additional length to the exterior sides of the girders, based on the directions (left or right) specified for the Diaphragm Loc. parameter.
