Objective of this CourseObjective of this Course
• To analyze, comprehend and present the behavior of structural systems under external effects
• Design loading for a structure is often Design loading for a structure is often specified in codesspecified in codes• General building codesGeneral building codes• Design codesDesign codes
Loads
• Types of loadTypes of load• Dead loadsDead loads
•Weights of various structural membersWeights of various structural members•Weights of any objects that are Weights of any objects that are

Loads
The floor beam is used to support the 1.83m width of The floor beam is used to support the 1.83m width of lightweight plain concrete slab having a thickness of lightweight plain concrete slab having a thickness of 102mm. The slab serves as a portion of the ceiling for the 102mm. The slab serves as a portion of the ceiling for the floor below & its bottom coated with plaster. A 2.44m floor below & its bottom coated with plaster. A 2.44m high, 305mm thick lightweight solid concrete block wall is high, 305mm thick lightweight solid concrete block wall is directly over the top flange of the beam. Determine the directly over the top flange of the beam. Determine the loading on the beam measured per m length of the beam.loading on the beam measured per m length of the beam.

Loads
• Earthquake loadsEarthquake loads•Earthquake produce loadings through its Earthquake produce loadings through its
interaction with the ground & its response interaction with the ground & its response characteristicscharacteristics
•Their magnitude depends on amount & type of Their magnitude depends on amount & type of ground acceleration, mass & stiffness of ground acceleration, mass & stiffness of structurestructure
•During earthquake, the ground During earthquake, the ground vibrates both horizontally & verticallyvibrates both horizontally & vertically

• Other natural loadsOther natural loads•Effect of blastEffect of blast•Temperature changesTemperature changes•Differential settlement of foundationDifferential settlement of foundation
Loads
• Material uncertainties occur due toMaterial uncertainties occur due to•variability in material propertiesvariability in material properties•residual stress in materialsresidual stress in materials•intended measurements being different from intended measurements being different from
fabricated sizesfabricated sizes•material corrosion or decaymaterial corrosion or decay
• Many types of loads can occur Many types of loads can occur simultaneously on a structuresimultaneously on a structure
Structural Design
• In working-stress design, the computed In working-stress design, the computed elastic stress in the material must not elastic stress in the material must not exceed the allowable stress along with the exceed the allowable stress along with the following typical load combinations as following typical load combinations as specified by the ASCE 7-02 Standardspecified by the ASCE 7-02 Standard
