Combination of Vertical and Lateral Loads

The document discusses load combination for calculating design shear forces and bending moments for beams. It specifies that the design force will be the maximum of either the vertical load (dead load + live load) or 0.75 times the combined vertical and lateral loads. It then provides tables of shear forces and bending moments calculated for two frames using these two load combination options.

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.
