Enter load modifiers for Ductility, Redundancy, and Important on the tabs in this window. Refer to LRFD 1.3.2.1 for more information about load modifiers.

Ductility

Select whether your structure is Non-Ductile, of Conventional Design, or has Enhanced Ductility. Enter the ductility factor h_D if you selected Non-Ductile or Enhanced Ductility. This value applies to the Strength Limit State only. All other limit states have h_D=1.0

Redundancy

Select whether your structure is Non-Redundant, of Conventional Level of Redundancy, or has Enhanced Redundancy. Enter the factor h_R if you selected Non-Redundant or Enhanced Redundancy. This value applies to the Strength Limit State only. All other limit states have h_R=1.0

Importance

Select whether your structure is Important, of Typical Importance, or is Not Important (yeah right). Enter the factor h_I if you selected Important or Not Important. This value applies to the Strength Limit State only. All other limit states have h_I=1.0
