Abaqus VDLOAD/DLOAD

I'm using the ABAQUS DLOAD subroutines, and I'm curious what the dimensions of the 

volume distributed body load should be. 

 

I understand ABAQUS uses [LT-2] for GRAV body loads. However, I'm curious if the 

units for BZNU acting over a volume should be [density]*[acceleration] or just

[acceleration].

 

Thank you,
