CHAPTER – 4

LOAD COMBINATIONS:
As per is 1893 (Part 1): 2002, Clause no. 6.3.1.2, the following
load cases have to be considered in the limit state of design of reinforced concrete structures
(when earthquake forces are considered on a structure) –

i. 1.5(DL+IL)
ii. 1.2(DL + IL ± EL)
iii. 1.5(DL ± EL)
iv. 0.9DL ± 1.5EL

Where the terms DL, IL, EL stands for the response quantities due to dead
load, imposed load and designed earthquake load respectively.
In our project we have just considered only the first two load cases for
simplicity. The values for load combinations are picked up from the figures shown at the end of
the previous chapter.
