Controlling Column Flexural Loads

SettingDescription
Load Case: This is the Load Case, which resulted in the worst combination of axial in combination with bending. See the Technical Notes (Chapter 3) for a description of the load cases.
Axial: These indicate the total unfactored Dead, Live and Roof Loads associated with the controlling load case. The Live Load and Roof Load are reduced, if allowed. The Live Load may be less than the total Live Load due to skipping associated with the controlling load case. The same applies for the roof load.
Moments: These indicate the total unfactored Dead, Live and Roof load moments associated with the controlling load case.
