combinations

[eissenhover]

Hello, I found 18 combinations for reinforced concrete and 27 for steel in idecad, I may be wrong, when I examined the combinations, positive and negative directions were determined for the wind, but there are only Ex and Ey values for the earthquake, there are no positive and negative directions, the existing combinations buried in idecad Do you think it is enough or do we need to add additional combinations as users, and why didn't the positive and negative directions be determined for the earthquake and worked into the combinations? Thank you in advance for your answers. In addition, when will the idecad version compatible with the new earthquake regulation be released? We, licensed users, will update the price difference and move to a higher model (in line with the new regulation), not like buying from scratch, is it true?

Re: COMBINATIONS Hello; TS 500 and DBYBHY 2007 for reinforced concrete; For steel, the combinations you choose are automatically produced in the GKT, YDKT, ASD, LRFD and TS EN 1993-1-1 and DBYBHY 2007 regulations. If you create different loading situations such as soil load, you have to add to the combinations yourself. If this is not the case, you do not need to add any combination. However, you can create a user-defined combination to control it. The reason why you see only EX and EY in earthquake combinations is because the program automatically creates EX and EY states in the background by taking 30% of the other direction's contribution. There is no situation that is not taken into account. If you wish, Sap2000, Etabs etc. You can control it by creating combinations in the programs. In the new version of TBDY 2018 COMPATIBLE, since the above-mentioned situation creates a question mark, EX and EY will be included in the combinations. The testing process for the new version is currently ongoing and will be published shortly. As you stated, the procedure followed in the transition from version 7 to 8 will be applied for our licensed users. Good work.
