BEAM DESIGN
SANS10100 1.1 Consider the 2 –span beam given:
Loading
Total dead load, Gn equals self-weight, Gself, plus superimposed dead loads,Gsdl
Self-weight of beam, Gself = 24 x 0.4 x 0.6 = 5.76 kN/m
Gsdl = 10 kN/m
Total dead load = 10 + 5.76 = 15.76 kN/m
Live load =8 kN/m
Design Load, wu = (1.2 x 15.76) + (1.6 x 8) = 31.712 kN/m
Load case 1
Load case 2
Load case 3
