Determine the external wind pressure on the roof of the rigid-gabled frame of a building for an essential disaster operation center shown in Fig. P2.14. The building is located in Kansas City, Missouri, where the terrain is representative of exposure C and the basic wind speed for risk category IV buildings is 120 mph. Assume the wind direction is normal to the ridge, as shown in the figure. Use Kd 50.85 for main wind-force resisting systems, and Ke =1

It is 2.50m x 6m in dimension and 225 mm thick. It will carry the following loads: a uniform live load of 2000 Pa, a uniform dead load of 5000 Pa (excluding the slab weight) and a concentrated dead load of 5000 N per meter of the slab, applied at the extreme end of the support. The slab was designed in such a way that the main bars will run parallel to the shorter span. Use the following design properties: f 'c = 21 MPa, fy = 345 MPa, 16- mm-diameter main bars, 10-mm-diameter temperature bars and 20 mm clear cover. Unit weight of concrete is 23, 544 N/m3. a.

A reinforced concrete building floor system consists of a continuous one-way slab built monolithically with its supporting beams, as shown in cross section in Fig. P13.2. Service live load will be 6 kN/m². Dead loads include a 0.5 kN/m2 allowance for nonstructural lightweight concrete floor fill and sur- face, and a 0.5 kN/m² allowance for suspended loads, plus the self-weight of the floor. Using ACI coefficients from Chapter 12, calculate the design moments and shears and design the slab, using a maximum tensile reinforce- ment ratio of 0.006. Use all straight bar reinforcement. One-half of the positive-moment bars will be discontinued where no longer required; the other half will be continued into the supporting beams as specified by the ACI Code. All negative steel will be discontinued at the same distance from the support face in each case. Summarize your design with a sketch showing concrete dimensions, and size, spacing, and cutoff points for all reinforcement. Material…arrow_forward
