AASHTO Table 3.4.1-2

21
Q

Service 2

A

Load combination intended to control yielding of steel structures and slip critical connections due to vehicular live load

22
Q

Service 3

A

Load combination for longitudinal analysis relating to tension in prestressed concrete superstructures with the objective of crack control

23
Q

Service 4

A

Load combination relating only to tension in pre stressed concrete columns with objective of crack control

24
Q

Define the permanent load Abbreviations ES,EV,PS,SH

A

ES= Earth surcharge load

A

BL= Blast Loading
BR= Vehicular braking force
CE= Vehicular centrifugal force
CT= Vehicular collision force
CV= Vessel collision force

27
Q

Define the transient loads: EQ,FR,IC,IM,LL,LS

A

EQ= Earthquake load
FR= Friction load
IC= Ice load
IM= Vehicular dynamic load allowance
LL= Vehicular live load
LS= Live load surcharge
