Lanes may be defined according to either layout-line or frame-object geometry.

Lane definition using layout lines

...

When lane geometry is defined according to frame objects, vehicle load is applied directly to those frames. This is the case for both zero-width and nonzero-width lanes. When an eccentricity exists between the lane load and the frame, an equivalent torsional moment is applied to the frame object. Please note that the vertical component is also applied in this location, transverse from the position of the vehicle load within the lane.
