    Question on load combinations

    I am using a structural design program and I was surprised to find out that the program generated load combinations 1. have load cases considering live load = 0. for example, if using UBC97 eq. 12-5, there are load combinatios 1.2D+1.0E 2. When using eq 12-6 in UBC97, have load combinations...
