Rules of Defining Abbreviated Names of Snow/Wind Loads in Generation of Code Combinations

The method for defining abbreviated case names when generating code combinations for each of the snow/wind codes in the program is as follows:

Optional elements of the case name (they do not need to be displayed) are marked in bold.

Components of the abbreviation of a case name are displayed in italic.

The general rule is that when you define a name, optional elements included in a case name are in the abbreviation preceded and followed by the underscore mark, such as:

WL/R(+)X
