(*) Variable actions are those considered in Tables A2.1 to A2.3.

NOTE 1 The γ values for the persistent and transient design situations may be set by the National Annex.
For persistent design situations, the recommended set of values for γ are:
γG,sup = 1,05
γG,inf = 0,95(1)
γQ = 1,35 for road and pedestrian traffic actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,45 for rail traffic actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,50 for all other variable actions for persistent design situations, where unfavourable (0 where favourable).
γP = recommended values defined in the relevant design Eurocode.
For transient design situations during which there is a risk of loss of static equilibrium, Qk,1 represents the dominant
destabilising variable action and Qk,i represents the relevant accompanying destabilising variable actions.
During execution, if the construction process is adequately controlled, the recommended set of values for γ are:
γG,sup = 1,05
γG,inf = 0,95(1)
γQ = 1,35 for construction loads where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,50 for all other variable actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
(1)
Where a counterweight is used, the variability of its characteristics may be taken into account, for example, by
one or both of the following recommended rules:
− applying a partial factor γ G ,inf = 0,8 where the self-weight is not well defined (e.g. containers);
− by considering a variation of its project-defined position specified proportionately to the dimensions of the
bridge, where the magnitude of the counterweight is well defined. For steel bridges during launching, the
variation of the counterweight position is often taken equal to ± 1 m.
NOTE 2 For the verification of uplift of bearings of continuous bridges or in cases where the verification of static
equilibrium also involves the resistance of structural elements (for example where the loss of static equilibrium is
prevented by stabilising systems or devices, e.g. anchors, stays or auxiliary columns), as an alternative to two
separate verifications based on Tables A2.4(A) and A2.4(B), a combined verification, based on Table A2.4(A), may
be adopted. The National Annex may set the γ values. The following values of γ are recommended:
γG,sup = 1,35
γG,inf = 1,25
γQ = 1,35 for road and pedestrian traffic actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,45 for rail traffic actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,50 for all other variable actions for persistent design situations, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
γQ = 1,35 for all other variable actions, where unfavourable (0 where favourable)
provided that applying γG,inf = 1,00 both to the favourable part and to the unfavourable part of permanent actions
does not give a more unfavourable effect.

γG,inf = 1,00
γQ = 1,35 when Q represents unfavourable actions due to road or pedestrian traffic (0 when favourable)
γQ = 1,45 when Q represents unfavourable actions due to rail traffic, for groups of loads 11 to 31 (except 16, 17, 263) and 273)), load models LM71, SW/0 and HSLM and real trains, when
considered as individual leading traffic actions (0 when favourable)
γQ = 1,20 when Q represents unfavourable actions due to rail traffic, for groups of loads 16 and 17 and SW/2 (0 when favourable)
γQ = 1,50 for other traffic actions and other variable actions 2)
ξ = 0,85 (so that ξγG,sup = 0,85 × 1,35 ≅ 1,15).
γGset = 1,20 in the case of a linear elastic analysis, and γGset = 1,35 in the case of a non linear analysis, for design situations where actions due to uneven settlements may have unfavourable effects.
For design situations where actions due to uneven settlements may have favourable effects, these actions are not to be taken into account.
See also EN 1991 to EN 1999 for γ values to be used for imposed deformations.
1)
This value covers: self-weight of structural and non structural elements, ballast, soil, ground water and free water, removable loads, etc.
2)
This value covers: variable horizontal earth pressure from soil, ground water, free water and ballast, traffic load surcharge earth pressure, traffic aerodynamic actions, wind and thermal actions, etc.
3)
For rail traffic actions for groups of loads 26 and 27 γQ = 1,20 may be applied to individual components of traffic actions associated with SW/2 and γQ = 1,45 may be applied to individual
components of traffic actions associated with load models LM71, SW/0 and HSLM, etc.

NOTE 3 The characteristic values of all permanent actions from one source are multiplied by γG,sup if the total resulting action effect is unfavourable and γG,inf if the total resulting action effect is
favourable. For example, all actions originating from the self-weight of the structure may be considered as coming from one source; this also applies if different materials are involved. See however
A2.3.1(2).
NOTE 4 For particular verifications, the values for γG and γQ may be subdivided into γg and γq and the model uncertainty factor γSd. A value of γSd in the range 1,0–1,15 may be used in most common
cases and may be modified in the National Annex.
NOTE 5 Where actions due to water are not covered by EN 1997 (e.g. flowing water), the combinations of actions to be used may be specified for the individual project.

γGset = 1,00 in the case of linear elastic or non linear analysis, for design situations where actions due to

(*) In the case of accidental design situations, the main variable action may be taken with its frequent or,
as in seismic combinations of actions, its quasi-permanent values. The choice will be in the National
Annex, depending on the accidental action under consideration.
(**) Variable actions are those considered in Tables A2.1 to A2.3.
(***) The National Annex or the individual project may specify particular seismic design situations. For
railway bridges only one track need be loaded and load model SW/2 may be neglected.
NOTE The design values in this Table A2.5 may be changed in the National Annex. The recommended
values are γ = 1,0 for all non seismic actions.
