Action Types
Actions are divided into permanent and variable actions. Permanent actions include dead load, floor structure, roof structure, and others. Wind, snow, and live loads represent variable actions. For example, wind loads usually have a favorable effect on a supporting structure, since they are generally lifting loads. Therefore, actions are further divided into actions with favorable and unfavorable effects.
Entering in RFEM/RSTAB
