For calculations total load on columns, Beam, Slab we must know about various load coming on the column.
Types of loads on the column
![The 450 kg uniform i beam sensor The 450 kg uniform i beam sensor](/uploads/1/1/2/2/112223891/729783517.png)
If simply supported at both ends and 450 kg and 220 kg are total loads uniformly distributed along the beam, each end reaction (at supports) is one half of (450 + 220 = 670 kg) or 335 kg. 95 views View 1 Upvoter. A uniform steel beam has a mass of 420 kg. On it is resting half of an identical beam, as shown in (Figure 1). Determine the vertical support force at A. Determine the vertical support force at B. Please explain how to solve. I am very confused. Integrated Concepts You have a grindstone (a disk) that is 90.0 kg, has a 0.340-m radius, and is turning at 90.0 rpm, and you press a steel axe against it with a radial force of 20.0 N. (a) Assuming the kinetic coefficient of friction between steel and stone is 0.20, calculate the angular acceleration of the grindstone. (b) How many turns will. I-BEAM Standard Grade: Q235, SS400 of JIS G3192 Size: from 100 x 100 to 900 x 300 Steel Grade: Q235B, Q345B, SS400, ASTM A36, S235JRG2, S235JR, S275JR Standard: GB700-1998, JIS G3101, ASTM, EN10025 No Specification Theory Weight kg/m No Specification Theory Weight kg. Similar calculations as above. I assume each meter of the beam has dimensions of 230 mm x 450 mm excluding slab thickness. So, self-weight can be around 2.5 kN per running meter. The density of bricks varies between 1500 to 2000 kg per cubic meter.
1- Self-weight of the column x Number of floors
2- Self-weight of beams per running meter
3- A load of walls per running meter
4- Total Load of the slab (Dead load + Live load + Self-weight)
The columns are also subjected to bending moments which have to be considered in the final design. The best way to design a good structure is to use advanced structural design software like ETABS or STAAD Pro. These tools are leagues ahead of manual methodology for structural design and highly recommended.
In professional practice, there are some basic assumptions we use for structural loading calculations.
For Columns
Self-weight of Concrete is around 2400 kg per cubic meter, which is equivalent to 240 kN. Self-weight of Steel is around 8000 kg per cubic meter. Even if we assume a large column size of 230 mm x 600 mm with 1% steel and 3 meters standard height, the self-weight of the column is around 1000 kg per floor, which is equivalent to 10 kN. So, in my calculations, I assume self-weight of the column to be between 10 to 15 kN per floor.
For Beams
Similar calculations as above. I assume each meter of the beam has dimensions of 230 mm x 450 mm excluding slab thickness. So, self-weight can be around 2.5 kN per running meter.
For Walls
The density of bricks varies between 1500 to 2000 kg per cubic meter. For a 6″ thick wall of 3-meter height and a length of 1 meter, we can calculate the load per running meter to be equal to 0.150 x 1 x 3 x 2000 = 900 kg which is equivalent to 9 kN/meter. You can calculate load per running meter for any brick type using this technique.
For autoclaved, aerated concrete blocks like Aerocon or Siporex, the weight per cubic meter is between 550 to 700 kg per cubic meter. By using these blocks for construction, the wall loads per running meter can be as low as 4 kN/meter, which can result in a significant reduction in the cost of construction.
For Slab
Assume the slab has a thickness of 125 mm. Now each square meter of the slab would have a self-weight of 0.125 x 1 x 2400 = 300 kg which is equivalent to 3 kN. Now, assume Finishing load to be 1 kN per meter and superimposed live load to be 2 kN per meter. So, we can calculate the slab load to be around 6 to 7 kN per square meter.
Factor of Safety
In the end, after calculating the entire load on a column, please do not forget to add in the factor of safety. For IS 456:2000, the factor of safety is 1.5.

Calculate Loads
The standard method for specifying the dimensions of a American Wide Flange Beam is for example W 6 x 25, which is 6 inches deep with a weight of 25 lb/ft.
I-shaped cross-section beams:
