Live Load Reduction

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

In certain design scenarios, ASCE 7 and IBC code provisions allow design engineers to reduce the magnitude of live loads applied to both floors and roofs in the structure.  ENERCALC for Revit provides a set of tools to implement live load reduction during the launch of a beam calculation.

NOTE:  It is advisable for any user to be thoroughly familiar with all code provisions and limitations associate with Live Load Reduction prior to using these tools in ENERCALC for Revit.
