The first table in the OSG, p64 (it has no table name). It says the following maximum loads are assumed per circuit, and then it lists circuits and their rating, along with Load.

My question, is this table showing maximum load that it's recommended these circuits should reach? Or is the Load they are speaking about in this table, the demand after diversity has been applied?

A tutor at college pointed us to this table and said it gives proper diversity on final circuits, but to me this seems not necessarily to be the case so I'm just trying to clear it up for myself so I can reference it in the proper way.

Thanks again in advance for any help.
 
The very first table is the maximum assumed load.

That whole section is about specifications for standard circuits so you don't have to worry about voltage drop, so the very first table specifies the assumed maximum load for the circuit. i.e. the value they've used in the voltage drop calculations for the current.

And if you're a trainee, we have a trainee only area. If you register as a trainee you'll get access.
