This document contains information inputted into the quickBridge software to analyze a bridge. It describes a 3-axle truck with axles located at 0, 4.3, and 8.6 meters. The bridge has a single 35 meter span with a uniform load of 50 kg/m. The software then computes the shear and moment diagrams to determine the maximum shear of 145.8 kg-m and maximum moment of 145.8 kg-m. It also provides help text and disclaimers for using the software.
