Definition of Linear Distributed Load:
Linear Distributed Load is load that spreads in specific manners (e.g. uniform, or non-uniform, vary from point to point) over the length of certain loaded members, typically like a beam. It is measured as a weight per unit length of member.
Abbreviations of Linear Distributed Load Units:
Unit of measurement: Abbreviation(s)

- Tonne Per Linear Meter: t/m, or tpm
- Pound Per Linear Inch: lb/in, or ppi
- Kilopound Per Linear Inch: kips/in
- Pound Per Linear Foot: lb/ft, or ppf
- Kilopound Per Linear Foot: kips/ft
