Thanks for the video. It seems that at 28:43 second in settlement combination the cover slab LL is not considered. Is it necessary or not?

[@subindesar2631]

Yes, you are right. The slab LL (slab live load) is also necessary for the settlement check. It needs to be included in the settlement combination. Thanks for the feedback.

hi. nice video. for fixed base the area springs to be provided with very high stiffness?

[@subindesar2631]

Yes.

[@hiuchinglam2318]

why do we need to restrain the base slab in horizontal direction? Thanks.

[@subindesar2631]

Because the structure is assumed to be stable in horizontal direction.
