On what basis analysis based on characteristic load values for Permanent Loads?
Direct Answer
Option A: Expected Values
Permanent loads, such as the self-weight of the fuel tank and its internal components, are calculated using expected values. These values represent the most accurate estimation of the static forces acting on the structure, ensuring that the design supports are correctly sized to handle constant, long-term gravitational stresses.
