When a load is defined in LBS, it is defined corresponding to a certain construction stage. However, there is no way to change the stage after the load is defined. The user has to delete the load and redefine it in a different stage. (e.g. allow a load to be changed from stage "final" to stage "initial")

A user defined load does not have to be tied to a construction stage. Instead, it can be assigned/added to different combinations in order to analyze the load effects as required by the user. Therefore, the same user defined load case can be assigned/added to the initial or/and the final stage.
