Assignment 1

(by group)

Figure 1 shows a layout plan of an office building at UTHM. Given;

Slab thickness = 150 mmBeam size = 250 mm x 500 mmFinishes = 1.0 kN/m2

Ceiling = 1.0 kN/m2

Weight of concrete = 25 kN/m3

3 m height brickwall = 2.6 kN/m2

(all walls)

Characteristic variable action, qk = 3.0 kN/m2

Characteristic. strength of concrete, fck = 25 N/mm2

Characteristicstrength of steel, fyk = 500 N/mm2

(a) Sketch the loading distribution from slab to beams.(b) Determine the design action act on beam B/1-4.(c) By using Simplified Method, draw shear force and bending moment diagram

of beam B/1-4.
