Follow the next steps to specify the load cases (classes) combined with the load factors.

...

Go to Combinations/Design Load Combinations/Limit States one last time and select Load Cases 1.

...

Click on three-dots icon under DC1 column of StrengthI limit state and click Select.

...

Select DC1 (Remember, its content was composed of the corresponding construction stages in Combinations/Result Extraction Cases step).

...

...

In same way, keep selecting the load cases for the corresponding limit states.

...

Load cases not included in this example should remain as NULL.

Tip

Serviceability limit states (Strength, Service, and Fatigue) and load combinations are completed.

Follow the next steps to include a unique load combination for the constructability limit state.

...

Under Combinations/Design Load Combinations/Limit States, add a row named StrIConst.

...

Select DC1 and keep the rest of the load cases as NULL.

...

Enter γmax as 1.4.

...

Go to Combinations/Design Load Combinations/Load Combination Table one last time.

...

...

Add a row named SuperStrConstLCT.

...

Select StrengthI column as StrIConst, and keep the rest of the limit states as NULL.

Tip

Analysis loads & combinations of the code checks are completed.

...

Go to Limit States under Design Load Combinations on the tree view.
