*The Cullen Selector uses Factored Design Loads to Eurocode 5. They are characteristic values modified as follows:

Design Value = (Fk x kmod) / ?m

Fk: characteristic values (from test or calculation)

kmod : Modification factor for duration of load and moisture content (EN1995-1-1 table 3.1: 0.7 for long term, 0.8 for medium term & 0.9 for short term actions

?m: Partial factors for material properties and resistances - 1.3 for connections in all cases (EN1995-1-1 table 2.3)
