EC2 – worked examples 2-2<br />
EXAMPLE 2.2. ULS combinations of actions for a canopy [EC2 – clause 2.4]<br />
The canopy is subjected to the following loads:<br />
Self-weight G k1<br />
Permanent imposed load G k2<br />
Snow imposed load Q k1<br />
EQU – Static equilibrium (Set A)<br />
Factors to be taken for the verification of overturning are those of Set A, as in Fig. 2.3.<br />

Fig. 2.3. Load combination for verification of static equilibrium.<br />
STR – Verification of resistance of a column(Set B)<br />
The partial factor to be taken for permanent loads in the verification of maximum<br />
compression stresses and of bending with axial force in the column is the same (γG = 1.35) for<br />
all spans.<br />
The variable imposed load is distributed over the full length of the canopy in the first case,<br />
and only on half of it for the verification of bending with axial force.
