German term or phrase: Lastansatz
Again, any help on the translation otherwise is also greatly appreciated:

In Abhängigkeit vom Abstand zwischen dem Lasteinleitungspunkt und einem unterirdischen Baukörper (Keller, Schacht etc.) kommt es zu Seitendrücken auf die Stützwände. In der Regel gilt auch hier, dass auch ohne besonderen Nachweis die Last eines SLW 60Regelfahrzeugs (600 KN) aufgenommen werden kann (keine neben- und hintereinander stehenden SLW’s; *Lastansatz* in der Regel ohne zusätzlichen Schwingbeiwert [vgl. VGB-R 602 U]). Außerhalb der SLW 60-Belastungsfläche (3,00 m x 6,00 m) kann in der Regel zusätzlich eine gleichmäßig verteilte Belastung von 10 KN/m² angesetzt werden.

Depending upon the distance between the introduction point of the load and a subterranean structure (cellar, shaft etc.) there can be lateral pressure on the girders. As a rule, it is also applicable here that even without special verification the load of one SLW 60 standard vehicle (600 KN) can be borne (no side by side and no SLW’s lined up one behind another; Lastansatz as a rule without additional vibration coefficient [compare VGB-R 602 U]). Outside of the SLW 60 load surface (3.00 m x 6.00 m), as a rule, an additional evenly distributed load of 10 KN/m² can be applied.
