Syntax
COMBTABLE arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5
Description
Combination tables are another form of superposition. The basic concept is based on a tableau of input results (load case results and superpositions), which are combined factorially. The output of a combination table are again envelopes. The user has a lot of freedom to define a combination table to map desired scenarios. Generally, the combinations are prescribed by the standard used.
The user has full control and responsibility over the table. Certain checks by the program should support the correct definition of a table.
The concept additionally provides for simplifying the definition of special combination tables prescribed by the standard by means of an adapted input. These types combination tables are not yet implemented. Nevertheless, the user can create his own templates, which he can then use across projects.
There can be several combination tables in a project, whereby only one is switched active for the evaluation.
