## Steps

### Step 1: Navigate to Load Combination Table

Navigate to **Combinations > Design Load Combinations > Load Combination Table** in the tree view.

### Step 2: Review Default Load Factors

Review the default load factors provided for each limit state per AASHTO LRFD Table 3.4.1-1.

### Step 3: Modify Load Factors (If Required)

Adjust load factors based on project-specific requirements:

| Load Type            | Strength I | Service I | Service III |
| -------------------- | ---------- | --------- | ----------- |
| DC (Dead Load)       | 1.25/0.90  | 1.00      | 1.00        |
| DW (Wearing Surface) | 1.50/0.65  | 1.00      | 1.00        |
| LL (Live Load)       | 1.75       | 1.00      | 0.80        |
| PS (Prestress)       | 1.00       | 1.00      | 1.00        |

### Step 4: Configure Multiple Presence Factors

Ensure multiple presence factors are applied correctly for live load combinations.

<summary><strong>Quick Tip:</strong> Max/Min Load Factors</summary>

Use maximum load factors when the load effect increases the design action, and minimum factors when it decreases the design action. This ensures the most critical condition is evaluated.
