 Load calculations

Specify the assumed size of the rooms.

- All columns are 300mm x 300mm

- All beams are 300mm x 450mm

- Slab thickness if 125mm

- The height of the wall is 3m

A. Column

the height of the column as 3 m

Dead load of the column of size 0.3*0.3*3

Total volume of the column

= 0.3*0.3*3

= 0.27 m^3

Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3

Dead load of column

= unit weight of concrete * volume of concrete

= 25 KN/m^3 * 0.27m^3

= 6.75 KN

B. Beams

Total C/S area of the BEAM

= 0.3*0.45

= 0.135m^2

Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3

Dead load of column

= unit weight of concrete * area of concrete

= 25 KN/m^3 * 0.135m^2

= 3.375 KN/m

C. Slabs

Dead load of a slab of 125mm thickness

Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3

self-weight of the slab= unit weight of concrete * thickness of concrete

= 25 KN/m^3 * 0.125

= 3.125 KN/m^

D. waHeight of wall 3

Dead load of a wall of 300mm thicknes

Unit weight of brick wall = 20KN/m^

self-weight of the wal

= unit weight of brick wall * thickness of wall*height of wal

= 20 KN/m^3 * 0.3m * 3

= 18 KN/

• According to the IS875 (part2) tabl

For the residential buildings use the live load of the UDL 2KN/m^

For this rooms and bathrooms and no balconies are present in the building

And near staircase provide the live load on UDL 3KN/m^

Here since it is the house the live load of the 2KN/m^2 is adopted on the slabs from IS 875-part 2 Table 

.Wind load calculati

since, height of the building is less than 10 m wind load calulation is not implemented on the build

where total height of building is 3m+3m = 6m.
