Design Loads & Combinations
Prepared by Prof. Marcia C. Belcher, PE
Design Loads
Structural members must be designed so they are strong
enough to carry the service loads imposed on it.
We also want an “economical” structural:
Member that are not excessively large or oversized.
Design process looks like:
Determine design loads felt by each member
Model (FBD)
Determine internal forces (V, M)
Select member material/size
Check deflection limits
Types of Building Loads
Dead Loads:
Called gravity loads because they are vertical forces due to stationary
objects.
Weight of building itself
Utilities, piping, lighting, HVAC, etc.
Non-moveable objects such as carpeting, flooring, stationary service
equipment (chillers, bank vaults, etc.)
Live Loads: Vertical loads due to human occupancy, snow, rain ponding, furniture,
partition walls and moveable equipment.
Horizontal (lateral) loads due to wind, earthquake, water pressure,
blast/explosion, collision, etc.
Load Combinations
ASCE Publication 7 prescribes likely scenarios of load
combinations that a structure may feel.
ie. A structure may feel maximum human occupancy, wind and
snow at the same time.
It is not likely to feel maximum occupancy, snow, wind and
earthquake at the same time.
Load Combinations:
Strength Design Method (LRFD)
Load Combinations:
1. Ldesign = 1.4D
2. Ldesign = 1.2D +1.6 L + 0.5 (Lroof or S)
3. Ldesign = 1.2D +1.6 (Lroof or S) + (.5L or .8 W)
4. Ldesign = 1.2D + 1.6 W + 0.5 L + .5(Lroof or S)
5. Ldesign = 1.2D + Ev + Eh + 0.5 L + .2 S
6. Ldesign = 0.9D +1.6 W
7. Ldesign = .9D - Ev + Eh
Where: D = dead load
L = live load
Lr = live roof load
S = snow
W = wind
Eh = horizontal earthquake
Ev = vertical earthquake
Unit Load Calculations: Sloped Roofs
Most load computations are done in terms of plan view unit areas.
Loads for roof areas that are sloped are commonly expressed in terms of weight per unit area of horizontal projection.
Loads on Inclined Roofs
Ø
LL, W, S
Simplified Approach: Live Loads, Wind Loads, and Snow
Loads are considered to act on a
horizontal projection of an inclined
member.

Loads on Inclined Roof
EXCEPTION:
Full weight of dead load and vertical earthquake
load are computed to act over the entire length
and applied to the horizontal projection.

CALCULATED.

Example: Determining Load Diagrams
Given: A simply supported roof beam inclined at a 10°
slope receives loads as follows:DL =1.2k/ft
Lr = .24 k/ft
S = 1 k/ft
Wh = 15 k
Eh = 25 k
Ev = .2 k/ft
Find: Loading diagram for the beam using strength design
method combinations.
Example: Determining Load Diagrams
Know: Load Combinations1. Ldesign = 1.4D
2. Ldesign = 1.2D +1.6 L + 0.5 (Lroof or S)
3. Ldesign = 1.2D +1.6 (Lroof or S) + (.5L or .8 W)
4. Ldesign = 1.2D + 1.6 W + 0.5 L + .5(Lroof or S)
5. Ldesign = 1.2D + Ev + Eh + 0.5 L + .2 S
6. Ldesign = 0.9D +1.6 W
7. Ldesign = .9D - Ev + Eh
Solution:a. DL adjusted for slope = 1.2 k/ft x 1/cos10° = 1.22 k/ft
b. Vertical earthquake adjusted for slope = .2 x 1/cos10° = .20 k/ft
Equations:
1. 1.4D = 1.4 (1.22 k/ft) = 1.71 k/ft
(this equation has vertical loads only)
Given Loads:DL =1.22k/ft
Lr = .24 k/ft
S = 1 k/ft
Wh = 15 k
Eh = 25 k
Ev = .2 k/ft
1.71 k/ft
L
2. 1.2D +1.6 L + 0.5 (Lroof or S) = 1.2 (1.22k/ft) + .5(1k/ft) = 1.964 k/ft
(this equation has vertical loads only)
3. This equation has vertical loads (wind) and horizontal loads
1.2D +1.6 (Lroof or S) + (.5L or .8 W) =

•The maximum effect (stress & deflection) cannot be determined by
inspection of the loads alone.
•Calculation of maximum stress and deflection for each case is required to
determine the controlling or “worse case” scenario.
