Setting Combination of Alternative Load Cases on Both Sides of Structure

In my structure, there are three load cases on the left, which should act individually with each other, and three load cases on the right, which should act individually with each other. However, the individual load cases should be combined with those on the other side. How can I set these conditions?

Answer:

First, activate the automatic combinations in the General Data.

Then, activate the "Differently" action in the "Actions" tab of the "Edit Load Cases and Combinations" dialog box, so that the individual load cases can be divided into groups (see Image 01). The assignment is made in the "Group" column using the list that you can access by clicking in this column.

Afterwards, you can check these set options in the "Load Combinations" tab; see Image 02.
