Display Intersection of Free Surface Loads

Often in RFEM, only part of a surface must be loaded, not an entire surface. A typical case of this is soil pressure. For this purpose, there is the option of defining free surface loads. They are surface-independent and are displayed in defined coordinate dimensions in the graphic.

However, checking the load, especially the load direction, can be problematic initially. But for this, the load area located completely within the surface can be displayed using an option. This can be found in the Display Navigator under "Loads" → "Free Loads" → "Intersections."
