Structural Load Analysis for Building Design

The document provides material properties, section properties, and loading information for structural analysis of a concrete building frame. Concrete has a compressive strength of 4000 psi. Grade 60 steel is used for beams and columns, while grade 40 is used for stirrups. The column is 24x24 inches, the beam is 24x30 inches, and the slab is 7 inches thick. Dead loads include self-weight and a superimposed load of 0.4 kip/ft^2. Live load is 0.5 kip/ft^2. Wind speed is 70 mph and exposure is category B. Earthquake loads are omitted as the area has low risk. The document lists 10 load combinations for analysis from the STAAD

Input data:

Material properties:

Concrete compressive strength = 4000 psi

Grade 60 steel is used.

Grade 40 bars are used for vertical stirrup bars.

Frame section properties:

Column size = 24”*24”

Beam size = 24”*30”

Slab size = 7 inch

Loads:

1-Dead load:

Self weight of the building

Super imposed dead load including weight of vehicle = -0.4 kip/ft2

2-Live load:

Live load is 0.5 kip/ft2

3-Wind load:

Wind speed is 70 mph

Exposure from shell objects and exposure category is “B” according to “UBC97” and also importance
factor is 1.

4-Earth quake load:

As the building is located in low risk area so it can be omitted from the analysis and design.

Loads combination generated from the Staad Pro:

Dcon1= 1.4*D.L

Dcon2= 1.2*D.L+1.6 L.L

Dcon3= 1.2*D.L+1*L.L+ 1*WINDX

Dcon4= 1.2*D.L+1*L.L- 1*WINDX

Dcon5= 1.2*D.L+1*L.L+ 1*WINDY


Dcon6= 1.2*D.L+1*L.L- 1*WINDY

Dcon7= 0.9*D.L + 1*WINDX

Dcon8= 0.9*D.L - 1*WINDX

Dcon9=0.9*D.L + 1*WINDY

Dcon10=0.9*D.L - 1*WINDX
