Load Calculations

1. Live Load : 2.4 KPa ( as per ASCE 7-05)


2. Services Load : 20 psf = 1 KPa
3. Partitions load anticipated = 0.4 KPa , breakup is as follows

9m

9m

9m

Length of Partition wall assumed = 9+9+9 = 27m = 88.58ft


Tributary Area for Partition wall = 9 x 18 = 162 m2 = 1744 ft2
Vertical Height of Partition wall = 8ft
Density of 100mm Gypsum Board Wall = 33 pcf
Partition load per unit length = 3.5/12 x 33 x 8 = 77 lb/ft
Partition load per unit area = (77 x 88.5)/1744 = 8 psf = 0.4KPa
4. 10 mm Finishes load = 0.2KPa
5. Self Weight of Concrete = 1.785 KPa
Total load = 5.78 KPa

RCC Design Calculations

Effective Span of Slab = 2.25m = 7.4 ft


Slab thickness requirement = L/28 = 7.4x12/28 = 3.17 in =80mm (required)
Slab thickness provided = 94mm ..OK
Total load = 5.78 KPa = 115.6 Psf
M = 0.115.6 x 7.42/8 = 0.79 K-ft
As = 0.274 in2 .. provide 10 @ 100
