LC1

Open the list of load cases on the toolbar. Then select LC1 to set this load case as current one.

In addition to the self-weight of the model which is accounted for automatically (see the Chapter Load Cases), the weight of the floor is to be considered for the concrete slabs. Click the New Surface Load button on the toolbar to define the loads on those surfaces.

In the 'Parameters' area of the 'New Surface Load' dialog box, enter the value of 0.75 kN/m² (see the Chapter System and Loads) (1).

Then click the Select Individually button in the 'Assigned to Surfaces' area (2) to select the two slabs (nos. 4 and 5).

Click OK and return to the 'New Surface Load' dialog box.

Instead of clicking OK (which would close the dialog box), continue defining surface loads by clicking Apply & Next.

The loads are applied to the two slabs.
