Load calculation

  • For load calculation we are using IS 875

Result:

  • Load calculation

Assume column size 230x300mm.

Assume beam size 230x350mm

Assume slab thickness 150mm

The height of wall is 3m

  • Dead load calculation

Self-weight of column- 0.23x0.3x3x25=5.175Kn

Self-weight of beam - 0.23x0.35x25=2.01K/m

Self-weight of slab -0.150x25=3.75Kn/m2

Self-weight of wall- 0.23x3x20=13.8kn/m

  • Live load

As per IS 875 –Part2

Living room- 2Kn/m2

Kitchen room- 2Kn/m2

Bedroom- 2Kn/m2

Terrace floor- 2Kn/m2
