8. The Load Combinations
8.1 Load Combinations‐Table 4 of IS 800‐2007.
Refer to Page 29, Table 4 of IS 800‐2007.
In this table, the Live Load is classified into “Leading” and “Accompanying”. We can Define Floor Loads
as Leading and Terrace and Roof Load as accompanying load as accompanying load is define as Load that
which causes lower Action or Deflections. This clause can be conveniently applied with Metal Roof Shed
having a Mezzanine floor within.
Our Structure, The High bay is a multistoried structure Whereas Low bay is Metal Shed. Hence for all
practical purpose we shall not differentiate and consider all live load as leading Load.
We have, referring to Table 4 of IS 800‐2007
Partial Safety factor for Loads ϒf For Limit State

DL+WL/EL 1.5 ‐ 1.5 1.0 ‐ 1.0
DL+WL/EL 0.9 ‐ 1.5 ‐ ‐ ‐
DL=Dead Load
LL=Imposed Load
CL= Crane Load Which we do not have in this Structure
WL=Wind Load
EL= Earth Quake Load

8.2 Load Combinations‐IS 1893‐2016

Refer to Page 7, Clause 6.3.2.1 of IS 1893‐2016, it say when Lateral load resisting elements are oriented
along two mutually orthogonal direction, structure shall be designed for full designed earthquake load in
one Horizontal direction at time ,and not in both direction simultaneously.
8.2.1 Additional Load Directions as per IS 1893‐2016
In Addition to this, Refer to Page 7, Clause 6.3.3.2 of IS 1893‐2016, Additional Load factors are given for
when Lateral load resisting element are not oriented along mutually orthogonal horizontal direction. In
our building this case is not applicable as we do not have Frame that are NOT parallel to major axis or
minor axis about the Plan of Building(X –axis and Z‐ Axis in STAAD)

Design of Steel Structure with STAAD Pro Er. Saroj Biswas

Refer to page 8, Clause 6.3.3.1 of IS 1893‐2016, it states that effects of Vertical Earthquake shaking shall
be considered when is located in Seismic Zone IV and V. Our Structure is in Zone IV.
Refer to page 8, Clause 6.3.3.3 of IS 1893‐2016, says that where both horizontal and vertical seismic
forces are taken into account load combination specified in clause 6.3.4.1 shall be considered.
These load combinations are
±ELx±0.3Ely±0.3ELz
±ELy±0.3Elx±0.3ELz
±ELz±0.3Elx±0.3Ely

Refer to page 8, Clause 6.3.3.4 of IS 1893‐2016, Further says that equations in clause 6.3.4.1 and
6.3.4.2 should be modified by deleting the term representing the response due to component of
motion not being considered.
In the above context, to have further detail, kindly refer to, Commentary on Indian Seismic Code by Dr
Sudhir K Jain and Dr CVR Murthy.

Thus we have an additional Table of Partial Safety factor for Loads as below
Partial Safety factor for Loads ϒf For Limit State as per IS 1893‐2016
Limit State of Strength
COMBINATION
DL LL EL(Horizontal) EL(Vertical)
DL+LL+EL 1.2 1.2 1.2 0.3x1.2=0.36
DL+EL 1.5 ‐ 1.5 0.3x1.5=0.45
DL+EL 0.9 ‐ 1.5 0.3x1.5=0.45
DL+LL+EL 1.2 1.2 0.3x1.5=0.36 1.2
DL+EL 1.5 0.3x1.5=0.45 1.5
DL+EL 0.9 0.3x1.5=0.45 1.5
DL=Dead Load
LL=Imposed Load
EL= Earth Quake Load

Usually last three cases of the above table does not govern the design strength. Hence we may ignore
them to keep the STAAD file concise if we wish to.

8.3 Detailed List of Load Combinations for the Building being designed.
From the above Two table, we have following Load Combinations. Note That , here also we have
grouped Gravity only combination, Combination of Gravity with Seismic , Combination of Gravity with
Wind, and further sub grouped them depending on load factors by assigning them a range of load
numbers. This type of pattern helps use to know the Governing load combination when we click on a
member to see the design results.

Therefore , We shall have

We can create all the Load Combintaions following above process.
8.3.2 Speeding Up of Generation of Load Combination using STAAD Pro Editor
However we can do it now in faster way in the STAAD Editor where we can add comments lines as well.
Close “Add New:Load Cases”
Open STAAD Input Editor. Scroll to load 101. We have now
LOAD COMB 101 1.2FDL+1.2WDL+1.2LL+0.6SQX+VE
11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6
Copy the above two lines and paste it 3 times below above two lines. We have now

11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6
11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6
11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6
11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6
Change last three lines as below
11 1.2 12 1.2 14 1.2 1 0.6

Below Lines shows where we have made the changes(Marked in Boxes)

Using the above method , with Copying, Pssting, changing and deleting words wherever needed, Let us
create all load combinations. Add Comments lines where ever necessary.
We shall have all load combinations as below in STAAD Input Editor.
Note That once we have created all load combintaions,We can copy all these combination from one
Editor to editor of another staad file, if that STAAD Demands same kind of load combinations.
