• An action is:– An assembly of concentrated or distributed mechanical forces
acting on a structure (direct actions), or– The cause of deformations imposed on the structure or
constrained in it (indirect actions)
5.1.1 Definitions of Loads and Actions
ActionDirect Action — Load
Indirect Action
5.1.2 Types of Actions
1. Classification according to the variation of their magnitude with time
– Permanent action, which is likely to act continuously throughout a given reference period and for which variations in magnitude with time are small compared with the mean value.
5.1 Loads and Actions …25.1 Loads and Actions …2
2. Classification according to their variation with space
– Fixed action, which has a fixed distribution on a structure;– Free action, which may have an arbitrary spatial distribution over
the structure within given limits.
3. Classification according to the structural response
– Static action, i.e. not causing significant acceleration of the structural or structural elements;
– Dynamic action, i.e. causing significant acceleration of the structural or structural elements.
– Variable action, for which the variation in magnitude with time is neither negligible in relation to the mean value nor monotonic.
– Accidental action, which is unlikely to occur with a significant value on a given structure over a given reference period.

(1) The design reference period is divided into r equal intervals
5.2.1 Stochastic Process Model of Loads
Assumptions of Stationary Binomial Random Process
– Actually, loads are random variables varying with time in the design reference period i.e. loads are random process.
– In general, loads are treated as stationary binomial random process.

(2) In each interval, the probability of the load Q occurring is p, while the
probability of not occurring is . 1q p (3) In each interval, when the load Q occurs, its magnitude is a non- negative random variable, and its probability distributions during different intervals are identical. Let the probability distribution of the load Q in interval be denoted by

The function is called an arbitrary point-in-time probability distribution of the load Q.

(4) The magnitudes of the load during different intervals are independent random variables, and they are also independent of the event that the load occurs in these intervals .

– The representative value of a load is a value used for the
verification of a limit state.rQ

5.4.2 Characteristic Value
– The characteristic value of a load is the maximum value of the load that acts on the structure during the design reference period.
kQ
1. Definition
– It is the principal representative value when designing structures. The other representative values are obtained by conversion of the characteristic value.
– It is chosen either on a statistical basis, so that it can be considered to
have a special probability of not being exceeded towards unfavorable values during the design reference period;
or on acquired experience; or on physical constraints.
– It is used in both ultimate limit state verification and serviceability limit state verification

5.5 Combination of Load Effects

5.5 Combination of Load Effects …15.5 Combination of Load Effects …1
5.5.1 Basic Concepts
– The total load Q is a sum of individual load components such as
dead load, live load, wind load, snow load, seismic actions, etc. They
all vary with time.
iQ
– When only one kind of the time-dependent loads acts on the structure, its maximum value during the reference period is then used in structural design.
– When two or more time-dependent loads act on the structure, their maximum values during the reference period cannot occur simultaneously. Therefore, the load effect combination problem should be considered.
