CE381 - 3 - Tributary Area - 9

This document discusses structural analysis and design. It defines structural systems as being composed of structural members joined by connections. The four basic structural types are listed as trusses, cables and arches, frames, and surface structures. All structural systems are made up of basic structural elements like beams and columns. The steps of structural design are outlined as planning, establishing loads, preliminary configuration, analysis, member selection, evaluation, redesign if needed, component design, and construction phase. Structural form, idealized models, load types, material selection, preliminary design, and final design are also discussed. Load paths and tributary areas are defined. Examples of structural elements and an example problem calculating dead loads on beams and girders are

As an engineer, you must be able to classify structures

according to their FORM and FUNCTIONS.

Composed of structural members, joined together by


structural connections is called STRUCTURAL SYSTEM.

The four basic types of structures are :

1. Trusses
2. Cables & Arches
3. Frames
4. Surface structures

All structural systems are composed of a number of basic


structural elements (i.e. Beams, columns, etc.)
CE381 Structural Analysis I (Supplementary lecture notes) Prepared by: Asst.Prof.Dr.Rifat Reşatoğlu 1
1. Planning – How will the building be supported?
2. Establishing the loads
3. Designing preliminary structural configuration and layout
4. Analyzing structural members
5. Selecting preliminary structural members
6. Evaluating the preliminary design
7. Redesigning (if needed) – Repeat the above steps as
necessary to achieve a safe and efficient design
8. Designing and detailing the structural components

Within the structural systems, individual
structural elements must work together to carry
and transfer the applied loads to the ground.
Examples of structural elements include:

The buildings should be designed
to meet the requirements of the
design standards. (with a clearly
defined load path, to transfer the
forces to the supporting ground).
Cruise of forces can cause damages
in LOAD BEARING SYSTEMS.

Problem :
The floor system of a building consists of a 15 cm thick reinforced concrete slab
resting on four steel floor beams, which in turn are supported by two steel girders.
The cross-sectional areas of the floor beams and the girders are 94.8 cm2 and
337.4 cm2, respectively. Determine the dead loads acting on the beams CG and
DH and the girder AD. (Unit weight for concrete is 23.6 kN/m3, and for steel 77
kN/m3)
