Rating uses a different set of Loads and Loads Combinations from the Design Mode


The LBS users can utilize either the Design Mode or the Rating Mode. Therefore, the Rating Combinations are different from the Load Combinations and the Rating Loads can be dissimilar from the Design Loads. The user must initially select the Mode: Rating or Design, and make all the necessary modifications inside this mode because each file and report will accept only one mode. As shown in the images below, if the modifications are created in the wrong mode, for example, at the design, they will not automatically appear later in the rating mode.
