Paul,

 

    What version of EC 6 are you using? The latest update is 6.0.21. I have this version, and I can't duplicate your problem.

Gordon,

 

Yeah, we found those but for example the 1.25 applies only to the Lr not to the combination.  We gave up, I used one of my spreadsheet models (used to do everything on those!), and did a hand check.

 

Ps: on another front, when we changed the loads input to "Tributary Area" - the allowable bending stress increased?  Can't figure that one out!

 

Thanks,
Paul Guthrie

Paul,

There  is a column for Cd factors on the load combination tab in both the wood beam and column modules.
