Computation of loads:
This is one of the important step in the design process. The correct
estimation of load leads to a safe and economical design of the beam. In
the Slab-beam system or framed structure the loads are transferred from
slab to the beam and then to the column and finally to the footing and soil
underneath. The transfer of load from slab to beam depends on the type
of slab viz. whether it is a oneway slab or a cantilever slab or a two way
slab.
Calculation of Slab Loads/m2 :
Roof slab:
Live load for access provided
=1.50KN /m2
Dead Load:
Self weight of slab 0.12 x 1 x 25
=3.00 KN /m2
Weathering course
=2.25 KN/m2
=5.25 KN /m2
= 6.75 KN /m2
Floor slab:
Live load for residential purpose
=2.00KN /m2
Dead Load:
Self weight of slab 0.12 x 1 x 25
Floor finish
Provision for partition wall
Total Dead Load
Total Load on Roof slab =LL + DL
Toilet slab :
=3.00 KN /m2
=1.00 KN/m2
=1.00 KN /m2
=5.00 KN /m2
= 7.00 KN /m2
=2.00 KN /m2
Live load
Dead Load:
= 3.00 KN /m2
=11.00KN /m2
= 1.00 KN/m2
Floor finish
= 1.00 KN /m2
= 16.00 KN /m2
= 18.00 KN /m2
When the slab is one-way slab, the loads transferred to beam is as shown in
figure:
Areas of floor covered by different beams are as follows:
Beam
B1
B2
Area
A/2
B3
Nil
B4
Nil where A= Lx Ly
w Lx/2 KN/m
In case of two way slab trapezoidal load is transferred to long span and
triangular load is transferred to short span.
Load transferred to trapezoidal loading on Beam B1= wLx/6 {3- (Lx/Ly)2 }
Load transferred to triangular loading on Beam B3 & B4= wLx/
Load transferred to Beam B2=2 times Trapezoidal loading= 2 x wLx/6 {3(Lx/Ly)2 }
Load due to wall on beam: Density of brick wall x Wall thickness x height
of wall.
=20 x 0.23 x (3.0-0.30) =
KN/m
Self weight of beam: Density of concrete x depth of beam below slab x
width of rib. =25 x (D-Df) xbw = 25 x (0.6-0.12) x 0.23 =
KN/m.
Load from secondary beam
Load on the main beam=concentrated load due to end reaction of
secondary beam.
Analysis of Building Frame:
Structural Analysis is the determination of the internal forces in the
members of the structure due to external loads acting on it. The external
loads may act at the joints or on the members. The internal forces that
we are calculating for design of beams and columns are called Axial
forces, shear forces, bending moment or torque. Structures are Statically
determinate structure and statically inderminate structures.
If the number of reactions is equal to the number of available static
conditions, then the reactions & the internal forces can be determined
using the principle of statics alone. So this types of structures are called
statically determinate structure. Example: Simply supported beam,
cantilever beam, Propped cantilever beam.
temperature variations than the floor slabs. This is required to take care of
temp. differences.
It is advisable to not to use 6mm bars as main bars as this size available
in the local market is of inferior not only with respect to size but also the
quality since like TATA and SAIL are not producing this size of bar.
