Hi all,

I've the following load case:

L1: WEIGHT FOR HANGER LOADS
L2: OPERATING FOR HANGER TRAVEL
L3: W+T1+P1+H(OPE)
L4: W+T1+P1+H+WIN1(OPE)
L5: W+T1+P1+H+WIN2(OPE)
L6: W+T1+P1+H+WIN3(OPE)
L7: W+T1+P1+H+WIN4(OPE)
L8: W+T1+P1+H+U1(OPE)
L9: W+T1+P1+H-U1(OPE)
L10: W+T1+P1+H+U2(OPE)
L11: W+T1+P1+H-U2(OPE)
L12: W+T2+P1+H(OPE)
L13: W+T2+P1+H+WIN1(OPE)
L14: W+T2+P1+H+WIN2(OPE)
L15: W+T2+P1+H+WIN3(OPE)
L16: W+T2+P1+H+WIN4(OPE)
L17: W+P1+H(SUS)
L18: L4-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L19: L5-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L20: L6-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L21: L7-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L22: L18,L19,L20,L21(OCC) MAX
L23: L8-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L24: L9-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L25: L10-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L26: L11-L3(OCC) ALGEBRAIC
L27: L23,L24,L25,L26(OCC) MAX
L28: L17+L22(OCC) SCALAR
L29: L17+L27(OCC) SCALAR
L30: L3-L17(EXP) ALGEBRAIC
L31: L12-L17(EXP) ALGEBRAIC

My doubt is:
is correct, for load case L18,L19,L20,L21,L23,L24,L25,26 use a ALGEBRIAC combination method or should I use a ABS combination method?

Algebraic. You are extracting the difference between two load sets to determine the occasional response.
I assume your model contains nonlinear restraints.

For non linear restraints you consider guide or stop with GAP, for example?
