Design Loading
3.1.1
Dead Load
The following densities and dead load allowances will be adopted in the design of the
structural elements:
3.1.2
25.0 kN/m
23.0 kN/m
Density of Soil
20.0 kN/m
10 KN/m
10 KN/m
3.1.3
Floor Finishes
1.5 KN/m
Services
1.0 KN/m
Live Load
The following live loads shall be taken into account:
3.1.4
7.50 KN/m
Loading Bay
Sand load shall be additive to live loads when area under consideration is used as
2
a work area. A 0.75 kN/m load shall be used in design of slabs.
Earth Pressure
For the design of earth retaining structural elements, the earth pressure will be
determined as follows:
Ka (active earth pressure) = 1sin / 1+sin = 0.33

= 1.40 m.
= 10 * 1.40
= 14.0 kN/m
= 4.57 kN.m
Ultimate Moment due to water pressure
= 1.40 * 4.57
= 6.43 kN.m
= 1.60 m.
= 0.50 * 20 * 1.60
= 16.0 kN/m
= 0.50 * 7.50
= 3.75 kN/m
= 6.90 + 4.80
= 11.70 kN.m
= 1.20 * 11.70
= 14.00 kN.m
Ground water table is lower the base slab so NO bending moment on the base slab due
to the water weight.
