(2a) First Storey:

(i) Dead Load:

Assume slab to be non-suspended slab
Floor finishes =0.75 kPa (assumed) x (6/2 +4/2) x (5.6/2 +4.4/2) =18.75 kN
Column =0.45 x 0.4 x 4.75 x 24 = 20.52 kN
Brickwall =20 x 0.175 x (6/2 +4/2) x 4.75 = 83.13 kN
Total =122.4 kN

(2b) Second Storey:

(i) Dead Load:

Slab =0.15m (assumed) x 24 x (6/2 +4/2) x (5.6/2 +4.4/2) = 90 kN
Floor finishes =0.75 kPa (assumed) x (6/2 +4/2) x (5.6/2 +4.4/2) = 18.75 kN
Column =0.45 x 0.4 x 3.46 x 24 = 15 kN
Brickwall =20 x 0.175 x (6/2 +4/2) x (5.6/2 +4.4/2) = 60.55 kN
Main Beam =24 x 0.6m x 0.8m x (6/2 +4/2) = 57.6 kN
Secondary Beam =24 x 0.25 x 0.45 x (6/2 +4/2) = 13.5 kN

Total Dead Load = 122.4 + 255.4 + 196.77 + 50.75 + 56.25 = 681.57 kN


Total Live Load = 100 + 50 + 14.07 = 164.07 kN
Total DL + LL = 776.54 kN

Strip Footing Size of 2m width (instead of 4m) x 4m (Span Length) x .75 Thk



Ground Footing Foundation Weight =24.0 x 2 x 4 x .75 = 144.0 KN

Acting Soil Pressure =989.64 / (2.0 x 4.0) =123.71 KN//m

Refer to Section 5.6 of the report, the tested foundation allowable bearing soil
pressure is 140.00 KN//m
