Load Calculation on Column, Beam & Slab

Load Calculation on Column, Beam & Slab

The total load calculation on columns, Beam, Slab we must know about various load coming on the column. Generally, Column, Beam and Slab arrangement is seen in a frame type of structure. In the frame, structure load is transferred slab to beam, beam to column and ultimately it reached to the foundation of the building.

What is Column:

A Column is a vertical component in building structure, which is mainly designed to carry the compressive and buckling load. The column is one of the important structural members of the building structure. As per Load coming on the column, size is increased or decreased.

Column length is generally 3 times to their least lateral cross-sectional dimension. The Strength of any column mainly depends on its shape and size of cross-section, length, location, and position of the column.
