 Design for Loading

• Over Design > Safe / Uneconomical

(over load)
• Under Design > Unsafe / Economical
(decrease Load)
• Un- Design > Experience
• Optimum > Safe / Economical

 Define Materials

• f’c = 2500 psi (Cylinder Strength 6”Ø Length 12”)

• fcu= 25 grade =25 Mpa(N/mm²)=25x145=3625 psi
(Cube Strength 6” )
f’c =0.8 fcu- б
• fy = 40000 psi
• Ec =57000
• US Ton =2240 lbs
• Metric Ton =1000kg =2200 Lbs
• 1Kg 2.2lbs

 Estimate for Frame Section (Column)

= .
• Ag = Gross Area (Sq in)
• Pu = Axial Force (Lbs)
• Pu = Load for column x Area
Load for column
 GF = 100 psf
 FF =280 psf
 RB =100 psf

Daw Su Thet Htar 13

 Calculation for column size
(100 + 280 × 3) × (12.25 × 13.25)
=
0.85 × 2500

=71.799 in²
L=B=8.47 in

Column Size = C 9x9

Daw Su Thet Htar 14

Estimate for Frame Section (Beam)
• Beam Depth = 0.75 x Span Length
Span 12ft = 0.75 x 12 = 9in
Span 12.5ft =0.75 x 12 = 9.375in
Span 13.25ft =0.75 x 13.25 = 9.9375in
Depth = 2 or 3 width

Beam size = B 9x9 , B9x12

 Loading (Lb-ft)
• Define Load
• Define Load Combination
• Assign Live & Finished Load to Slab & Stair
• Assign Wall Load to Beam

Daw Su Thet Htar 18

 Define Loading
• Gravity Load (D.L , L.L) Finished Wall
• Lateral Load (Earthquake , Wind, …..)
Define in Etabs

Daw Su Thet Htar 19

 Load Combination

• Combo 1 = DL+LL (Un-factored Load)

• Combo2= 1.4DL+1.7LL (Factored Load)

Dead Load = DL, Wall , Finished Load(Topping

, Stair Step)

Daw Su Thet Htar 20

 Live Load
• Single family = 40 psf
• Stair =100 psf

Daw Su Thet Htar 21

 Finished Load
• For Slab (1.5” Topping)
.
Finished Load = x 150 =18.75 psf~ 20 psf

• For Stair (Riser 6”)

Finished Load = x 150 +20=57.5 psf

 Wall Load
• 9” thk: wall with plastering both face =100 psf
• 4.5” thk: wall with plastering both face =50 psf
• Light Partition =20 psf
• Wall load are computed linear feet on beam.
• 4.5” Wall load = 50x(h-1)x opening factor
• Opening factor = 1-
