I prefer adding such effects manually. Once you have your stresses just do manual calculations and superimpose

I have currently with me some papers, i was reading...and making notes...luckily the topic is LONG TERM DEFLECTION It is still in my pending tray...Once i find enough time to get information and absorb the topic i will write a post and share with you all. Well i was doing research on LONG TERM topic and also how to use it in SAFE and what are different options available in SAFE...well i made a comparison sheet and i found every result different than the rest...which made me more confused....

Well the same symbols are used for many different things in each discipline of science...I quickly took a look and i found some variables like n1 and Q, which are used in Gust Factor Calculation according to ASCE. but other factors i dont know. If somethings clicks my mind, I will update you!

or Cananyone tell what are these notations stand for

oh i c..i was thinking from design office point of view..!

sure it is responsibility of architect but in field engineers supervise the work !!! there are chances when such events come to their jurisdiction :-)

WE ARE NOT RESPONISBLE FOR THE DIRECTION AND WC SETTING OUT...WE CONSTRUCT AND DESIGN THE BUILDING...ITS ARCHITECT RESPONSIBILITY!...I AM SURE YOU WILL NEVER FIND WC IN STRUC DRAWINGS..AND WILL NOT EVEN NOTE THAT IN ARCH DRAWINGS... BUT YEAH YOU CAN DISUCSS WITH THEM IF YOU LIKE!...I DONT THINK A GOOD ARCHITECT (EVEN THE NON MUSLIMS WORKING IN MUSLIM COUNTRIES) BUILD A DESIGN AGAINST MUSLIM NORMS..

Any job Oppurtunity For fresh civil engineers....??..jst graduated 2 months ago from UET peshawar....my intrest is in the field of structural engineering....

I can check it, if you do it neatly.
