#This is where you add loads. For loads there are 3 parameters. The first is type.
#it can be either "point", "distributed", or "triangle". The next is the location along the beam.
#For distributed loads, you enter in a length 2 array where the first value is the start location
#and the second value is the end locaiton. The third parameter is the load. The load does need to be
#signed. For unevenly distributed loads, you have to enter in a length 2 array where the first value
#is the starting force and the second value is the ending force.
