1) IS THIS LOAD CASE COREECT????
2)WHAT IS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOT SUSTAIN AND LIFT UP CASE
BOTH CASES SHOWING DIFFERENT RESULTS,
3)IN ONE OF CASE ALL SUPPORTS ARE SITTING PROPERLY, NOT HAVING UPWORD DISPLACEMENT STILL IT WAS FAILING IN ABOVE CASE,

PLEASE, CAN YOU RECTIFY ABOVE PROBLEMS,

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Dear Satish,

This topic are discussed repeatly in our forum. Search using tools on above right...and still contraversial . Your load cases are correct. If you have D in L1 case then L3 should be T+D.

But please note that displacement in hot SUS case is unreal coz only NATIVE load case gives the real value for the displacement.
