To calculate the dead , live and wind load for RC residential structure and to apply them using TSD

• AIM: To calculate the dead load in design based on IS code and apply on the model

• Tools used : Load cases ,Full UDL , Area load ,Property window\

• Calculation : 

1. Slab model  
2. Finishes Loading = 0.05 X 24 KN/M^2 =1.2 KN/m^2 
3. Brick Wall with cement plaster thickness = 225mm
4. Unit weight = 20KN/m^2
5. Floor Height = 3.6 m
6. Brick Wall Loading = 225 X 20 X 3.6 /1000 = 16.2 KN/m
7. Roof Wall Loading = 1.5 KN/m

• PROCEDURE 

1. Click on load cases in the load tab and check if there is dead load created ,If not created then create load cases named as dead load by

• Clicking on add option

 

• In the left bottom corner ,Select dead load in the dead load case drop down 

 

• Click on area load in the load tab and enter the direction as global Z and value of  load as 1.2  KN/m and select all  the slabs  for applying the slab loading 

 

  

 

 

• Then click on UDL in the load tab and enter the value as 16.2 KN/m for the ground floor and first floor  and select the beam lines and extra walls accordiing to the plan 

• Again click on full UDL and enter the value as 1.5 KN/m for the roof floor walls 

• AIM :  To calculate the live load in design report based on IS code and apply it on model

• Tools used : Load cases , Live load ,area load , Property window 

• Calculation 

1. Live loads of diffrent type of rooms is to e taken as IS 875 Part 2 

 

 

• PROCDEDURE 

• Click on load cases and a create load case named as live load and select the lopad type as imposed in the load type and dropdown and click OK 

 

• In the left bottom corner , In the load cases dropdown and select the load case as live load

 

• Click on area load in the load tab.Enter the value of loading as per the plan given in the attachements for ground floor and first floor

 

 

• AIM : Generate manual wind loading in design report based on IS code with given input 

• Calculation :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• AIM : To apply wind load calculation on the model 

• PROCEDURE : 

1. Click on frames in the model tab and create frames for outer wall of the structure 

• Open frame using frame using structure window and click on wall panels in the model tab and create wall panels in all frames 

 

• Now click on load cases in the load tab add new load cases and name them as wind load +Y +Cpi,wind load -Y-Cpi and select the type as wind load and click OK

 

•  Open frame C which is considered as wall A and apply wind load +Y-Cpi, wind load +Y-Cpi  as per calculation shown above on clicking on area load and setting direction as global +Y and entering the value as 0.42 and 2.5 resp.

 

•  Repeat frame A which is wall B and frame 5 which is wall C  and frame 1 which is wall D set direction as global X for walls C and D 

•  RESULT :

1. Wind load applied on walls of structure
