Recommendation
The following simplified load arrangements are recommended for buildings:
(a) alternate spans carrying the design variable and permanent load (γQQk + γGGk + Pm), other spans carrying only the design permanent load γGGk + Pm and
(b) any two adjacent spans carrying the design variable and permanent loads (γQQk + γGGk + Pm). All other spans carrying only the design permanent load, γGGk + Pm.
