1 Load On Structure

The document discusses different types of loads that act on structural elements like slabs, beams, and columns. It defines dead loads as the self-weight of structural components plus any permanent loads. Live loads are temporary loads like people, furniture, wind, and liquids. It provides examples of how to calculate the dead load on slabs from finishes, ceilings, and partitions. Beam and column loads from slabs depend on the slab system and location within the structure.

LOAD ON STRUCTURE

Prepared by: Teng Chhay


Date: Apr, 02 2014
Loads
• Dead Load
– self-weight

– Load of nonstructural component: floor covering, partition and

suspended ceilings
• Live loads are all other loads that are not dead loads.
• Weight of the people, furniture and goods
• Forces resulting from wind action and temperature changes
• The pressure of liquids or earth on retaining structures.
Loads on slab
• Loads on slab are surficial load [kN/m2]

– Dead loads

 Tile: Thickness [m] × Unit weight of tile [kN/m3]

 Mortar: Thickness [m] × Unit weight of mortar[kN/m3]

 Self-weight: Thickness [m] × Unit weight of concrete [kN/m3]

 Ceiling  kN 
 m 3 
 Other load (partition wall)
Loads on slab (cont.)
• Live load
Slab Loads on Beam

• Slab load on beam depends on the slab systems:


– Two-way slab (b/a ≤ 2)

– One-way slab (b/a > 2)


One-way slab
Two-way slab
Linear loads on Beam
• Brick wall
– 10cm thk. Brick Wall = brick wall height × 1.8kN/m2
– 20cm thk. Brick Wall = brick wall height × 3.6kN/m2

• Self-weight=Beam section × Unit weight of Concrete


Slab loads on Column

• C1=w×L/2×S/2
• C2=w×L/2×S
• C3=w×L×S/2
• C4=W×L×S
Where
W : Load on slab
L : Long size of slab
S : Short size of slab
