EXAMPLE 1. NEW BUILDING DESIGN FROM REINFORCED CONCRETE

EXAMPLE 1: 'REINFORCED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION STUDY' 60 Select to update the script and register the changes. Selecting "Downloads" will display the following dialog box: where, for each scenario load, you define the corresponding load (LC) including its groups (see "Loads">>"Load groups") with the corresponding multipliers. ❖ For the scenarios involving the earthquake , - first select the category "Permanent Loads" - G(1), coloured blue, and set for LC1 a value of 1.00 in all subgroups and - then select the category "Mobile Loads" - Q(2), coloured blue, and set LC2 to 1.00 in all subgroups. The "+" next to the charging category indicates that there is a load participation, i.e. a non-zero multiplier, for that particular charge. ❖ In scenarios where the earthquake is not involved (simple static, e.g. presence of wind), the loads are shown as numbers and in each load you define, with a factor of 1, the presence of the corresponding load. Each scenario can include up to 4 loadings.
