With robot structural analysis, you can generate load combinations
00:08
to ensure a structure will remain stable and resist multiple loads
00:13
to create a new manual load combination.
00:16
After opening a project with defined geometry of a structure
00:20
and loads acting on it
00:22
from the text menu,
00:24
select loads manual combinations.
00:28
The combination definition modification dialogue displays
00:33
from here,
00:34
you can alter the combination number type and name
00:39
select. OK.
00:41
The combination's dialogue displays
00:44
from here
00:45
define the components and factors of the combinations
00:49
you can use either automatic multipliers or assign multipliers manually
00:55
from the case list,
00:57
select a case number.
00:59
In this instance,
01:00
the dead load is selected
01:03
next in the factor field. Enter one
01:06
and then click the arrow
01:08
to add the selected load case to the list of cases. In combination.
01:13
Now select the snow load
01:16
in the factor field,
01:18
enter 0.75
01:21
and then click the arrow to add the selected load case to the list of cases.
01:26
Continue this process for each load case. In
01:30
this example,
01:31
wind two is assigned 0.75
01:35
and the live load is assigned one
01:39
once finished select apply,
01:43
then click new
01:45
to begin creating another load case combination,
01:49
the combination definition modification, dialogue displays
01:53
expand the combination type drop down
01:56
and select SLS
01:58
click. OK.
02:00
The combination dialogue updates
02:03
with the new combination displayed
02:06
again,
02:07
select case numbers
02:09
assign multipliers or use automatic multipliers
02:14
and then
02:15
add them to the list of cases. In combination
02:19
when finished click apply
02:22
and then click close
02:25
from the tool bar.
02:26
Expand the case's drop down.
02:29
The case combinations are accessible from this drop down.
02:34
Defining manual combinations of loads acting on a structure
02:38
and defining the combination multipliers is an easy process.
