Reinforced Concrete I

Lecture 2

In order to study any structure you must

study the following items:

Different load Cases for structures

Dead Load

Live Load

Wind load

You can take the case of total load and it

will be nearly close to the max- max shear

Load Combinations:
In case of neglecting earthquake loading and wind loading
U =1.4D+1.6L
In case of live load less than 0.75% of the dead load.
U=1.5(D+L)
Incase of horizontal earth pressure or water pressure (E)
U=1.4D+1.6(E+L)
In case of either Wind load (W) or earthquake (S)
U=0.8(1.4D+1.6L+1.6W)
U=1.12D+aL+S
Where a =0.25 for ordinary buildings.
