point support

Low confidence here, because I could not find a proper reference just now. But Punktlast im Holzbau is point load (see link), so this would make sense.

using {curve} reference points

OK, my confidence is low on this, too. However, in math, you often have a curve that is defined only by a set of points. Once you have a curve that fits the points, you can get the equation for the curve.

So, since this has to do with calculation, this might fit.
