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:
The determination of loads is a critical step because any deviation in calculations of applied loads will lead to an underestimate of loads, which may cause structural failures or it will lead to an overestimation of loads, which may cause uneconomic design.
In this course, we will study the determination of Live & Roof Live 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:
This course involves a deep study on the determination of Live & Roof Live Loads, according to ASCE7-22-Chapter 4, and 2021 IBC-Chapter 16.
