1.	What is the load factor considered for steel structures when combination of dead load, imposed load and earthquake load is considered?(a) 1.5(b) 1.3(c) 1.2(d) 1.7This question was addressed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.This key question is from Determination of Earthquake Loads topic in division Structural Analysis, Loading and Load Combinations of Design of Steel Structures
Answer» Right answer is (b) 1.3 The best explanation: In plastic design of steel structures, load FACTOR is 1.3 when combination of DEAD load, IMPOSED load and EARTHQUAKE load is considered i.e.1.3(DL +/- IL +/- EL ).
