 NOTE FLOOR LOADS:

1. IT WILL BE ASSUMED THAT THE BASIC LIVE LOAD FOR THE

ESCALATOR IS 2.40 Kpa (50psf). AN ADDITIOMAL ELEVATION &
ESCALATOR LIVE LOADS OF 0.96 Kpa (42psf): AND A PARTION LIVE
LOAD OF 0.96 Kpa (20psf) ARE TO BE SPECIFIED BECAUSE THE
LOCATION & ALSO THE CORRIDOR ARE NOT KNOWN: HENCE WILL BE
SUBJECTED TO CHANGE, THE ENTIRE FLOOR WILL BE DESIGNED FOR
A LIVE LOAD OF 5.36 Kpa or SAY, 5.40 Kpa (113psf.)

2. THERE WILL BE NO REDUCTION FOR LIVE LOADS GREATER THAN 4.80

Kpa (REFER TO SEC. 205 – 5 on p. 2 – 15 OF NSCP 2015 ED.)

LIVE LOAD ≤ 4.8 Kpa

B. MATERIALS

CONCRETE: f ’c = 27.5 Mpa

Ec = 4,700 √𝑓′𝑐 = 25 𝑥 103 𝑀𝑝𝑎
STEEL: fy = 410 Mpa

C. WIND LOAD ( ZONE – II ) :

P = qGCP – qi (GCPi)
@ ZONE II : V = 200 Kph

D. SEISMIC LOAD (ZONE – 4 )
