6. Chapter (1) Objective
 Safety during Operation and Occupancy
Building code requirements aim to design safe building and structures in
operation during building or structure life time (50 years)
A walkway at the Hyatt Regency
in Kansas City collapsed
A wedding ended in tragedy when
the venue's floor collapsed
The Tacoma Narrows Bridge
twisted and buckled in the wind
before collapsing in 1940

7. Chapter (1) Objective
 Safety during Operation and Occupancy
Building code requirements aim to design safe building and structures
during operation during building or structure life time (50 years).
Collapse of ceiling of terminal 2E of
Charles De Gaulle Airport, France
Collapse of Minneapolis steel
highway bridge
Collapse of roof of Sultan Mizan
Zainal Abidin Stadium, Malaysia
Eng.Mohamed Ismail Kotb

8. Chapter (1) Objective
 Safety during construction
Building code requirements aim to design safe building and
structures during construction phase
Collapse of a foot over-bridge
during the construction phase
near Jawahar Lal Nehru Stadium,
INDIA, 2010.
Failure due to Buckling of piers
during construction
An under-construction flyover
connecting BKC main road & Santa
Cruz–Chembur Link Road
collapsed.

9. Chapter (1) Objective
 Safety during construction
Building code requirements aim to design safe building and
structures during construction phase
Half of the bridge fell into the ravine
below
The pillar holding up the bridge
toppled over

10. Chapter (1) Objective
 Safety during construction
Building code requirements aim to design safe building and
structures during construction phase
Eng.Mohamed Ismail Kotb

11. Chapter (1) Objective
 Economic
Building code requirements aim to design building and structures
with economic cost based on the following philosophy :-
❑ Building code define only the minimum loads to make the
design safe and economic.
❑ Building code define maximum allowable serviceability limits
without affecting service conditions of building.
❑ Define the life period of residential building is 50 years.
❑ Adopting LRFD (Ultimate) combinations method.
❑ Depend on the ductility of structures to contribute in resisting
seismic forces.
Eng.Mohamed Ismail Kotb

12. Chapter (1) Objective
 Function
Building code requirements aim to satisfy client requirements
regarding function during operation and occupancy in design of
buildings and structures.
 Serviceability
Building code requirements aim to control deflection of slabs,
limit the floor vibration control the lateral drift subjected to
wind loads and also the inter story drift for structure subjected
to seismic forces.
