Generate load combinations automatically

The easiest way to create load combinations is to generate the combinations automatically. In order to do so, see the following instructions.

Note:

Construction Stage combinations must be created manually.

  1. On the Load tab, click Combination.

    The Loading dialog opens on the Combinations page. On this page, you can see all currently existing load combinations.

  2. Click Generate...

    The Combination Generator dialog box opens.

  3. On the first page of the dialog, specify the initial parameters according to your needs.

    Depending on the number of combination types that you selected on the first page, Tekla Structural Designer creates one or more pages of combinations.

  4. Click Next.
  5. Review each page of combinations, and adjust them as necessary.
  6. Click Next to move on to the next page.
  7. To save the load combination, click Finish.

    Tekla Structural Designer adds the load combination to the list of combinations available in the Loading list.

    Tip:

    To review the factors and options that have been applied to a combination, click the combination name in the list on the left side of the Loading dialog box.
