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

Above Screenshot is applied with a Floor Finish Load of 1.2 KN/m2 consisting of 50 mm thickness with Density of 24 KN/m3.

=========================================================================

Dead Load comprises of Area Load of 3.125 KN/m2, calculated by ( 125mm slab thickness * Unit Density of RCC 25 KN/m3)

====================================================================================

Live Loads to be applied over the Floor plans are of three types as shown under:

S No Occupancy's Characteristic Load to be applied
1 Office Room 3 KN/m2
2 Common Place of Gathering & Store room 5 KN/m2
3. Toilet 2 KN/m2
4. Equipment Room & Water Tank load over Mummty Level 10 KN/m2

=================================================================================

Imposed Load/ Live Load given in the qusetion is shown in the above screenshot.

==============================================================================

Brick Wall Load enclosed under Dead load, consists of 12 KN/m with Member Load applied under "Full Length" option of 12 KN/m calculated by (4.8m height * 0.25 m thickness * 10 KN/m3 as Unit weight of Brickwall).

Highlighted member at the 2nd Floor in the above screenshot represents Brick Wall Loading.

=========================================================================

Load cases to be taken into consideration are as follows;

Various Load Cases to be considered in the analysis:

============================================================================

Wind +X +cpi

================================================================================

Wind X- cpi

=================================================================================

Wind +Y +cpi

==================================================================================

Wind +y -cpi
