The material temperature only affects temperature dependent material properties, but not the temperature loads.

 
h1. Temperature Load 

As of SAP2000 V11.0.5, all temperature loads are incremental, so the conversion used in SAP2000 is C:F = 5:9, without the 32 factor. This means that all temperature loads can be viewed as _change_ of temperature type of load. (The [Reference temperature] was removed from the program starting V11.0.0)
