Column 2

Assume column size = 12”x12”

From roof floor to 2nd floor
1 . calculate dead load
12 x 12
Own weight of column = 150x x10 = 1.5kips
144

Own weight of beam

For x direction
12 x 14
B12x14 = 150x x10 = 1.75 kips
144
For y direction
12 x 14
B12x14 = 150x x15 = 2.625 kips
144
Total beam load = 1.75+2.625 = 4.375 kips
When own weight of slab are calculated for column load one fourth of each slab area that
carried by the column are considered.
4
Own weight of slab = 150x(75+75)x4x = 7.5kips
12
Finishing weight = 20x (75+75) = 6 kips
Total dead load = 1.5+4.375+7.5+3 = 16.375kips

Calculate Live Load

Total live load = 20x (75+75) x4 = 12 kips

Axial Load For Column, Pu = 1.2DL + 1.6LL

= 1.2x16.375 + 1.6x12= 43.55 kips

From Second to First Floor

Own weight of column= 1.5kips
Own weight of beam
For X direction
 12 x 16
B(12x16) = 150x x10 = 2kips
144
For Y Direction
12 x 16
B(12x16) = 150x x15 = 3kips
144
Total beam load = 2+3 = 5kips
Own Weight of 9” wall = 0.168kips
When own weight of slab are calculated for column load one fourth of each slab area that
carried by the column are considered.

Own weight of slab =7.5 kips

Finishing weight =20x (75+75) = 3kips
Total dead load =1.5+5+0.168+7.5+3= 17.168kips
Calculate Live Load
Total Live Load =40x (75+75) = 22.5 kips
Axial load for column, Pu =1.2DL + 1.6LL = 56.601 kips

From First to Ground Floor

Own weight of column = 1.5kips
Own weight of beam
For X direction
12 x 16
B(12x16) = 150x x10 = 2kips
144
For Y Direction
12 x 16
B(12x16) = 150x x15 = 3kips
144
Total beam load = 2+3 = 5kips
Own Weight of 9” wall = 0.165kips
When own weight of slab are calculated for column load one fourth of each slab area that
carried by the column are considered.

Own weight of slab =7.5 kips

Finishing weight = 20x (75+75) = 3kips
Total dead load =1.5+5+0.168+7.5+3= 17.168kips
Calculate Live Load
Total Live Load =40x (75+75) = 22.5 kips
Axial load for column, Pu =1.2DL + 1.6LL = 56.601 kips
