2.3.2 B.M due to wheel 2
Here the wheel load is placed unsymmetrically with respect to the YY axis of the panel. But Pigeaud's curves have been derived for loads
symmetrical about the centre.We imagine the load to occupy an area placed symmetrically on the panel and embracing the actual area of the
loading, with intensity of loading equal to that corresponding to the actual load. We determine the moments in the two desired directions for this
imaginary loading. Then we deduct the moment for a symmetrical loaded area beyond the actual loaded area. half of the resulting value is taken
as the moment due to the actual loading.
