Week 8 Challenge

1,2,3 Answer

AIM: To calculate the dead load ,live load and wind loading to the model

Load Calculations:

DEAD LOAD

a) Dead load of 1.2 Kn/m2

b) Finishes= 50mm * 24Kn/m3 =1.2Kn/m2

c) Brickwall Load= 0.155*20*3.6 = 11.2 Kn/m ( Ground to Intermediate Floor)

d) Brickwall load= 0.155*20*3.6 = 11.2 Kn/m2 ( Intermediate to roof Floor)

e) Brickwall load= 0.155*20*1.2 =3.72 Kn/m2 ( Parapet)

f) Roof load= 1.5Kn/m

g) Ceiling load= 0.3Kn/m

h) Slab thickness= 150mm

LIVE LOADS

i) Staircase=5Kn/m2

j) Workshop=5Kn/m2

k) Storeroom=5Kn/m2

l) Office room= 2.5 Kn/m

j) Service load= 0.6Kn/m

WIND LOAD

4 Answer

AIm:To apply the above calculated load to the model

Selecting the loadcases and defining the loads

Going to the loads selecting the dead load applying the brickwall dead load of 11.2Kn/m2

Applying Live load of 2.5Kn/m on the slabs

Applying wind load by selecting the appropriate loadcases

Wind +X +Cpi

Wind +X -Cpi

Wind +Y +Cpi

Wind +Y -Cpi
