Load Combinations Clause Samples
Load Combinations. Applicable loads will be considered to act in combination. Combinations producing the most unfavorable effects in the building, foundation, or structural members concerned, will be designed in accordance with ASCE 7-95.
Load Combinations. Structural engineering is all about loads. Loads are typically defined by its source, either dead, live, wind, seismic, etc. The design codes generally group these load cases in load combinations, where each load case is assigned a load factor. The end result is a series of load combinations, both service and factored. Service load combinations are typically used for bearing calculations, whereas factored load combinations are used for concrete design. The Load Combinations dialog box may be invoked from the Design Menu. At the top of the dialog box you may specify the Design Code. In addition, for factored loads the live load factor depends whether the load is > 100 psf.
Load Combinations. The effects of load combinations on structures and structural members shall be investigated using the load combination factors specified in the relevant design codes.
Load Combinations. Load combinations shall be in accordance with the requirements of the UBC.
