Structural design is a set of processes that assures that a building is capable of resisting applied loads, fulfilling its functions, and sustaining its stability.
The processes of structural design can be summarized in the following steps:
- Determination of applied loads
- Selection of an economical and proper structural system
- Structural analysis of structural system to get internal actions
- Design of structural members to resist internal actions
The determination of loads is a critical step because any deviation in calculations of applied loads will lead to an underestimation of loads, which may cause structural failures, or an overestimation of loads, which may cause an uneconomic design.
In this course, we will study the determination of Dead Loads, Soil Pressure & Hydrostatic Pressure Loads.
This course is the first course of a series related to the determination of loads; all of these courses are independent and do not require any prerequisites. The following is the list of related courses:
2. Determination of Live & Roof Live Loads as Per ASCE7-16
3. Determination of Rain Loads as Per ASCE7-16
4. Determination of Snow Loads as Per ASCE7-16
5. Determination of Flood Loads as Per ASCE7-16
6. Determination of Ice Loads as Per ASCE7-16
7. Determination of Crane Loads as Per ASCE7-16, MBMA2016, and AISE13
8. Determination of Wind Loads as Per ASCE7-16
9. Determination of Seismic Loads as Per ASCE7-16
10. Load Combinations as Per ASCE7-16
This course involves a deep study on the determination of Dead, Soil Pressure, & Hydrostatic Pressure Loads, according to ASCE7-16-Chapter 3, and also 2018 IBC-Chapter 16.
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Weights of materials and construction
- Weights of fixed service equipment
- Weights of vegetation and landscaped roofs
- Weights of solar panels and their systems
- Concepts of adding different dead loads to wind & seismic loads
- Soil loads and hydrostatic pressures
- Difference between dry coil condition and saturated soil condition
- Difference between active earth pressure, passive earth pressure, and at rest earth pressure
