Combination of Vertical and Lateral Loads


The Design Force (i.e., AF, SF or BM) will be the maximum between the following two
combinations
(i) Vertical Force = DL+LL
(ii) Combined Vertical and Lateral Force = 0.75 (DL+LL+EQ); i.e., 0.75 times the
combined force from Vertical and Lateral Load Analysis.
The design Shear Forces and Bending Moments for various beams are calculated below
using the two options mentioned above.
