Loads and Load Combinations in SEI/ASCE 37-02
Section 2 of the SEI/ASCE 37-02 Design Loads on Structures During Construction Standard deals with the definition of the loads, and the specification of load factors and load combinations to be used in design of structures during their construction phases. Provisions are made for both ultimate strength and allowable stress design. The construction loads, load combinations and load factors were developed to account for the relatively short duration of load, variability of loading, variation in material strength, and the recognition that many elements of the completed structure that are relied upon implicitly to provide strength, stiffness, stability or continuity are not present during construction. The load factors are based on a combination of probabilistic analysis and expert opinion [Rosowsky]. The concept of using maximum and arbitrary point-in-time (APT) loads corresponding load factors is adopted to be consistent with ASCE 7 [ASCE 7].
