where w = load per m2 acting on roof slab since roof beam load is required = 10 kN/m2
lx = short span = 3.5m
r = (ly / lx ) = 6/3.5 = 1.71
Actually there are two triangular portions. Equivalent udl has to be calculated for both
triangular portions and maximum has to be applied over B 1-2.
total udl on beam CB-4 = 22.15 + 3.28 = 25.43 kN/m say 26 kN/m
Point Load = 50 kN
The load coming on B 2-3 will be triangular load from either side
where w = load per m2 acting on floor slab since floor beam load is required = 14 kN/m2
lx = short span = 3.5m
r = (ly / lx ) = 6/3.5 = 1.71
Actually there are two triangular portions. Equivalent udl has to be calculated for both
triangular portions and maximum has to be applied over B 1-2.
Weight of wall above beam CB-4 = 20 x 0.115 x 3.0 x 1.5 = 10.35 (partition

Point Load = 80 kN
The load coming on B 2-3 will be triangular load from either side
Actually there are two triangular portions. Equivalent udl has to be calculated for both
triangular portions and maximum has to be applied over C 1-2.
Equivalent udl due to triangular load = w x lx / 3
= 10 x 3 / 3
= 10 kN/m
total udl on beam CB-4 = 22.15 + 3.28 = 25.43 kN/m say 26 kN/m
Point Load = 50 kN

Note: When space frame analysis is done, there is no need to give point load on beam
C 1-2 and B 1-2 as load will be automatically taken from beam CB - 4
