![]() But did you know that these load combinations had a lot of provisions that maybe we don’t know yet? This article aims to summarize the provisions made by ASCE 7-10 and UBC 97 code for the readers/ structural design engineers to easily determine which one is going to consider or being omitted in the design load combinations during our structural design.įor a clearer understanding on the notations, kindly use the actual ASCE 7-10 and UBC 97 code. ![]() With reference to ASCE 7-10 section 2.3.2 and UBC 97, just like any other code used in building design, the two mentioned code set standards according to the following basic load combinations presented in Table 1.1 and Table 2.1 below. ![]() The right load combinations will, of course, provide us the effective results that may not compromise the soundly and economical aspects of the design. Too many load combinations may result in an over design outcome, thus it can compromise the economic aspect of the projects. As this may dictate the outcome of our design. Design Codes & Standards, Design LoadingsĪSCE 7-10 Load Combos, Load Combinations ConsiderationsĬhoosing the right load combinations in structural design is necessary for structural design. ![]()
