What loads have to be given first in the STAAD model?

Question

Accepted Answer

The loads that need to be given first in the STAAD model are the dead loads and live loads.

Dead loads, which include the self-weight of the structure and permanent loads, should be given first.
Live loads, such as occupancy loads and variable loads, should be given after the dead loads.
Other loads like wind loads, seismic loads, and temperature loads can be added subsequently.
Loads should be applied in the correct direction and magnitude as per the design requirements.
Example: In a building design, dead loads like the weight of the walls, floors, and roof should be given first, followed by live loads like furniture and occupants.
