DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
Design loads that need to be considered in while designing a structure are categorized into:
I. G – Dead Load
II. Q – Live Load due to UDL or PL
III. W – Live Load due to Wind
IV. S – Live Load due to Snow
V. E – Live Load due to Earthquake
Dead Loads are loads that are permanent: Lateral Loads are loads that act
Live Loads are loads that change with

Primary loading generally includes the materials from which the structure was built, the occupants, their furniture,
the direct influence of various typical weather conditions, as well as unique loading conditions experienced during
construction, extreme weather and natural catastrophes.

REINFORCEMENT USED IN LOAD BEARING STRUCTURES
• Generally all concrete structures are reinforced with some type of VARIOUS TYPES OF STRUCTURAL CONCRETE
reinforcement. Nonreinforced concrete members are assumed to carry
only small gravity loads or perform a noncritical, non-life-threatening load-
carrying function. Examples include a slab on grade, a walkway, a low-
height retaining wall, etc. All other applications belong to structural
concrete where some type of reinforcement is used.
• In reinforced concrete, bars are placed where tension and cracking are
expected. In prestressed concrete, the tendons are stressed to apply a
compressive force balancing tensile stresses and preventing cracking.
TYPES OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT USED IN CONCRETE STRUCTURES
• Hot Rolled Deformed Bars: This is the most common type of reinforcement for regular RCC structures.
Hot rolling is done in the mills which involves giving it deformations on the surface i.e. ribs so that it can form
bond with concrete.
• Mild Steel Plain bars: These are plain bars and have no ribs on them. These are used in small projects
where economy is the real concern. As plain bars cannot bind very well with concrete hence hooks have
to be provided at the ends.
• Cold Worked Steel Reinforcement: When hot rolled steel bar undergoes process of cold
working, Cold worked reinforcement is produced. Cold working involves twisting or drawing the bars
at room temperature.
• Prestressing Steel: Prestressing steel is used in the form of bars or tendons which are made up of
multiple strands, however, tendons / strands are more frequently used as these can be laid in various
profiles, which is a primary requirement of prestressing steel. Prestressing strands are, in turn, made
up of multiple wires (typical 2, 3 or 7 wire strands).Typical seven wire strand consists of six wires
spun around the seventh wire which has a slightly larger diameter, thus forming a helical strand.
COLUMNS AND ITS TYPES
Column is a vertical structural member that carry loads mainly in compression. It might transfer loads from a
ceiling, floor slab, roof slab, or from a beam, to a floor or foundations.

BEAMS AND ITS TYPES
A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally to the beam's axis. Its mode of deflection is
primarily by bending. The total effect of all the forces acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending
moments within the beam, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and deflections of the beam.
TYPES OF BEAMS
FOUNDATION AND ITS TYPES
The soil beneath structures responsible for carrying the loads is the FOUNDATION. The structural element which
transmits the load to the soil (such as a footing) is the foundation.
INSTALLATION OF FOUNDATIONS
• First, inspection of the soil takes place where the buildings is going to be built. (Soil
Investigation)
• Second, calculation of the live and dead load that the foundation needs to transfer is
done. According to that, selection of the foundation type & footings take place.
• Third, designing of the structural member’s specifications such as size, reinforcement
and mix ratio to support the load for a longer period is done
FUCTION OF FOUNDATION
• Distribution of loads
• Stability against sliding & overturning
• Minimize differential settlement
• Safe against undermining
• Provide level surface
• Minimize distress against soil movement
TYPES OF FOUNDATION
SHALLOW FOUNDATION
They are usually located no more than 6 ft below the lowest finished
floor. A shallow foundation system generally used when
(1) the soil close the ground surface has sufficient bearing capacity.
(2) underlying weaker strata do not result in undue settlement. The
shallow foundations are commonly used most economical foundation
systems.
DEEP FOUNDATION
The shallow foundations may not be economical or even possible
when the soil bearing capacity near the surface is too low.
In those cases deep foundations are used to transfer loads to a
stronger layer, which may be located at a significant depth below the
ground surface.
SHALLOW FOUNDATION
CEMENT
• Manufactured from clay & chalk
•Act as a binder of the concrete mix
•Cement can be supplied in bags ( 1 bag = 50kg) or in bulk
•Air tight sealed bags requiring a dry dump free store
•Bulk cement delivered by tanker (12 to 50 tones) & pumped into storage silo
AGGREGATES
• 2 types of aggregates: coarse & fine aggregates
•Coarse aggregate is defined as a material which is retained on a 5mm sieve
•Fine aggregate is defined as a material which is passes a 5mm sieve
•Aggregate can be either : Natural rock (disintegrated) Crushed stone gravels
