Combination rules
conference paper
Load combinations specified in EN 1990 for verification of ultimate limit and serviceability limit states in conjunction with the partial factor method are discussed and illustrated by practical examples of typical civil structures. Alternative procedures to identify critical load cases are reviewed. Actions, load cases determined in accordance with combination roles, and action effects are shown considering four typical examples of structural elements: cantilevered beam, continuous beam, cantilevered frame and three bay two-dimensional frame.
