California Building Code 2016 (Vol 1 & 2) > 16A Structural Design > 1605A Load Combinations > 1605A.4 Modifications to Load Combinations in ICC 300

JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER

The text of ICC 300 shall be modified as indicated in Section 1605A.4.1 through 1605A.4.3.

1605A.4.1 ICC 300, Section 303.5.1

Modify Section 303.5.1 by adding Equation 3-1a and replacing Equation 3-2 as follows:

0.9D + 0.4L + 1.6Z (Equation 3-1a)

1.2D + 1.6L + 1.6R_r (Equation 3-2)

1605A.4.2 ICC 300, Section 303.5.2

Modify Section 303.5.2 by adding Equation 3-3a, adding Equation 3-3b, and replacing Equation 3-4 as follows:

D + 0.4L + Z (Equation 3-3a)

0.6D + 0.3L + Z (Equation 3-3b)

D + L + R_r (Equation 3-4)

1605A.4.3 ICC 300, Section 303.5.3

Modify Section 303.5.3 as follows:

The uniform live load L used in Equation 3-2 and 3-4 may be taken as zero when evaluating elements supporting the handrail/guard provided those elements do not also support L.
