Ultimate Seismic LC: 1.2D + 1.2L + 0.3S + 1.2E

This load combination is intended for checking the strength limit state with applied seismic and live loads. Only the live load percentages specified in Table 8 of IS 1893 (Part 1): 2002 are applied. 25% of the Live (Unreducible) and Live (Reducible) loads are applied, and 50% of the Live (Storage) loads are applied. No Live (Roof) loads are applied. These percentages are incorporated into the following combinations. The load factors used are:

Hyperstatic Loading: 1.0 (std & alt)

Dead Loading: 1.2 (std & alt)

Live (Reducible) Loading: 0.3 (std & alt) [0.25(1.2)]

Live (Reducible) Loading: 0.3 (std & alt) [0.25(1.2)]

Live (Storage) Loading: 0.6 (std & alt) [0.5(1.2)]

Live (Parking) Loading: 0.3 (std & alt) [0.25(1.2)]

Snow Loading: 0.3 (std & alt) [0.25(1.2)]

Service Seismic Loading: 1.2 (std & alt)
