    The document provides design criteria and load computations for sample floor framing. It specifies dead and live loads for different building occupancies and floor components. It also outlines two methods for distributing loads in two-way and one-way slab systems based on the span-to-depth ratio: 1) for short spans in two-way slabs, the uniform load is 1/3 of the unit load multiplied by the span; 2) for long spans in two-way slabs, the uniform load is calculated using a formula involving the unit load, span, and span-to-depth ratio. Preliminary sizes are provided for beams and slab thickness.

    LOAD COMPUTATIONS

    Sample Floor Framing

    DESIGN CRITERIA:

    1. DEAD LOADS

    SLAB ………………………..…. 3.00 KPa For Slab Load:


    SLAB FINISHING ………….. 1.10KPa Approx. thickness of slab =
    Perimeter= ( 6+6+5+5 )∗1000
    180
    CEILING ………………………. 0.10KPa Slab Load = (Concrete Unit weight)(Slab thickness)
    MEP ……………………………. 0.10KPa = (24kN/m3)(125mm) = 3kPa
    Interior Partition ………… 1.00KPa
    ___________________________ Preliminary Size:
    Total Floor Load = 5.30KPa Beam: 300x500mm
    2. LIVE LOADS

    Type of Occupancies

    Office …………………………………….. 2.4KPa Stairway/Lobby/Corridors ……… 4.8 KPa

    Residential …………………...……….. 1.9KPa Exterior Balconies ………………….. 2.9KPa

    School …………………………..………. 1.9KPa Corridors ……………………………….. 3.8KPa


    DISTRIBUTION OF LOADS

    1. TWO-WAY SLAB SYSTEM, L/S ≤ 2.0


    wS
    For Short Span; W =
    3

    wS 3−m2
    For Long Span; W = [ ]
    3 2

    Where:
    W = Uniformly distributed load in kN/m
    w = Unit load in kPa
    Short Span
    m=
    Long Span

    2. ONE-WAYSLAB SYSTEM, L/S > 2.0
