I am new to Mathcad and I am trying to make a simple load combination sheet where I enter in the loads (i.e. dead, live, snow), calculate the load combinations per ACSE7, then have mathcad select the largest value. I have the load combinations calculated, each under its own variable (i.e. load1, load2, load3). I need help with figuring out how to get mathcad to select the largest value. Thank you!

Have you tried using the max function?

If you need to find the index number of an element in a vector or array, then use the match function. To find the index of the maximum value in a vector v, use match(max(v),v).
