Ram concept - AS 3600.2009
Hi everyone, When I first looked into load combination of AS.3600-2009 for prestressed concrete, the initial service load combo in Standard is 0.9SW + 1.15P, which is different from 0.8SW + 1.15P in Ramconcept manual. Can anyone explained me why?

RE: Ram concept - AS 3600.2009 Load combo for initial service stage.

The manual, or at least this section, probably hasn't been updated recently. The factor used to be 0.8.
