Service Seismic LC: D + 0.8L + 0.2S + 0.8E

This load combination is intended for checking the serviceability limit state with applied seismic and live loads. It is currently only generated for mat / raft foundations. 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:

Balance Loading: 1.0 (std & alt)

Dead Loading: 1.0 (std & alt)

Live (Reducible) Loading: 0.2 (std & alt) [0.25(0.8)]

Live (Reducible) Loading: 0.2 (std & alt) [0.25(0.8)]

Live (Storage) Loading: 0.4 (std & alt) [0.5(0.8)]

Live (Parking) Loading: 0.2 (std & alt) [0.25(0.8)]

Snow Loading: 0.2 (std & alt) [0.25(0.8)]

Service Seismic Loading: 0.8 (std & alt)
