Design Philosophy
Two philosophies of design have long prevalent.
Working stress method focuses on conditions
at service loads.
Strength of design method focusing on
conditions at loads greater than the service
loads when failure may be imminent.
The strength design method is deemed conceptually
more realistic to establish structural safety.

Safety Provisions
Structures and structural members must always be
designed to carry some reserve load above what is
expected under normal use.
25
Safety Provisions
There are three main reasons whyy some sort of
safety factor are necessary in structural design.
[1] Variability in resistance.
[2] Variability in loading.
[3] Consequences of failure.
26

RC09-1354
RC Structural Elements
Variability in Resistance
Variability of the strengths of concrete
and reinforcement.
Differences between the as-built
dimensions and those found in
structural drawings.
Effects of simplification made in the
derivation of the members resistance.

Variability in Loading

29
Consequences of Failure
A number of subjective factors must be
considered in determining an acceptable level of
safety.
Potential loss of life.
Cost of clearing the debris and replacement
of the structure and its contents.
C
Cost

i
Type of failure warning of failure, existence of
alternative load paths.

Margin of Safety
The distributions
Th
di t ib ti
of the resistance
and the loading
are used to get a
probability of
failure of the
structure.
31
Margin of Safety
The term
Y=R-S
is called the safety
margin.
The probability of failure is defined as:

Loading
SPECIFICATIONS
Cities in the U.S. generally base their
building code on one of the three model
codes:
33
Loading
These codes have been consolidated in
the 2000 International Building Code.
Loadings in these codes are mainly based
on ASCE Minimum Design Loads for
Buildings
g and Other Structures (ASCE
(
798) has been updated to ASCE 7-02.

Based on historical data (not always the
maximum values)
Basic equation in codes is for flat roof snow
loads
Additional equations for drifting effects, sloped
roofs,, etc.

Roof Loads
Ponding of rainwater
Roof must be able to support all rainwater that could
accumulate in an area if primary drains were
blocked.
Ponding Failure:
Rain water ponds in area of maximum deflection
increases deflection
allows more accumulation of water cycle
continues potential failure
