Eriksson Culvert uses the internal forces from both analyses to develop unfactored EQ min/max envelopes for every member in the structure. The considered cases to develop these envelopes are:

  1. Results from the racking analysis

  2. Results from the vertical analysis

  3. Racking + vertical analysis results

Users have the option of determining how ‘(3) Racking + vertical analysis results’ are calculated, by either of the following combinations:

  1. 1.

...

  1. 0 / 1.0, which includes:

    1. 1.0 H + 1.0 V

    2. -1.0 H - 1.0 V

    3. -1.0 H + 1.0 V

    4. 1.0 H - 1.0 V

  2. 0.3 / 1.0, which includes:

    1. 0.3 H + 1.0 V

    2. -0.3 H - 1.0 V

    3. -0.3 H + 1.0 V

    4. 0.3 H - 1.0 V

    5. 1.0 H + 0.3 V

    6. -1.0 H - 0.3 V

    7. -1.0 H + 0.3 V

    8. 1.0 H - 0.3 V

These unfactored forces are then applied in the LRFD extreme event I load combination:
