CDD parameters

CDD

Deformation: Max. displacement of beam	Maximal deflection of a beam for the serviceability limit state (defined relatively to the length of the beam).
Deformation: Max. displacement of plate	Maximal deflection of a slab for the serviceability limit state (the absolute value).
Type of loading	Single short term This option sets beta to 1.0. Sustained For sustained loads or many cycles of repeated loading the coefficient Beta is equal to 1.0. See EN 1992-1-1, art. 7.4.3(3).
Beta	Beta is a coefficient taking account of the influence of the duration of the loading or of repeated loading on the average strain. See EN 1992-1-1, art. 7.4.3(3).
