RE: STAAD Pro - Reference loads and repeat loads
Also please refer the Section 5.31.6 - "Defining Reference Load Types" of the Technical Reference Manual. It also has those clarifications.

You can create a node where you apply the load. This node need to have a rigid master/slave connection with the other nodes where the load has to be transferred.

The maximum moment is 4941.67k-ft in beam 209 at load case 148. I am expecting the maximum moment to be about 5343k-ft.
