Method
Loads on Buildings
1. Dead load :
a. Self weight of the component
b. Superimposed Dead Load (Partition Wall,
flooring etc.)
2. Live Load (Moveable Objects Load)
3. Environmental Loads (Wind, Earthquake,
hydrostatic load, frost heaving etc.)
Load Combinations
Where, D = Dead load, L = Live load, E = Earthquake Load, H = Hydrostatic

load, W = Wind Load, F = Fluid Load, H = Load due to soil, P = permanent
equipment and Lr = roof live load
Concrete and Steel Strength
• In RCC design, 28 days cylindrical compressive
strength is taken as the design strength of
concrete. It is denoted by f’c. The nominal
value of f’c is 2500 psi and maximum of 8000
psi.
• On the other hand, steel tensile strength is
tested by UTM is specified as design strength
whose value ranges from 50 – 72.5 ksi.
Design Type
• Under rein forced, over reinforced and
balanced design:
Reinforced concrete beam sections in which the tension steel also
reaches yield strain simultaneously as the concrete reaches the
failure strain in bending are called balanced sections.
Reinforced concrete beam sections in which the steel reaches
yield strain at loads lower than the load at which the concrete
reaches failure strain are called under-reinforced sections.
Every singly reinforced beam should be designed as under-

reinforced sections because this section gives enough warning
before failure. Yielding of steel in under-reinforced beam
section does not mean the structure has failed, as when steel
yields, excessive deflection and cracking in beam will occur
before failure which gives enough time to occupants to escape
before the section fails.
The failure in under-reinforced beam section is due to the

concrete reaching its ultimate failure strain of 0.0035 before
the steel reaches its failure strain which is much higher 0.20 to
0.25.
Reinforced concrete beam sections in which the
failure strain in concrete is reached earlier than the
yield strain of steel is reached, are called over-
reinforced beam sections.
If over-reinforced beam is designed and loaded to

full capacity then the steel in tension zone will not
yield much before the concrete reaches its ultimate
strain of 0.0035. This due to little yielding of steel
the deflection and cracking of beam does not occur
and does not give enough warning prior to failure.
Failures in over-reinforced sections are all of a
sudden. This type of design is not recommended in
practice of beam design.
