It is possible to copy the definition of load combinations from one model to another using interactive database editing as follows:
(1) Say that you have an existing Model A that contains a definition of load cases and load combinations and that you need to copy the definition of the load combinations to a new Model B.
(2) Create the Model B as a new model and define the relevant load cases in it.
(3) To copy the definition of load combinations from Model A to Model B, do the following:
- Open Model A, go to "Edit > Interactive Database Editing" and select table "MODEL DEFINITION > Load Pattern Definitions > Response Combinations > Table: Combination Definitions", open the load combinations definition table and export it to Excel.
- Open Model B and select the same load combinations database table as described above for Model A. You may need to check the "Expose All Input Tables" option on the "Choose Tables for Interactive Editing" form to display this table, because this table will be empty for a new model. Export the empty table to Excel and copy the load combinations definitions from the Excel file that was exported from Model A.
- After saving the changes, the load combination definitions are now available in Model B.
