Raffles International Institute MODULE AIMS:
1. To learn the basic knowledge of load-bearing systems, building
elements, finishes, standard and codes
2. To understand the content and purpose of construction
documentation and shop drawings
3. To learn how to prepare drawing documentation for tenders, bidding
and construction
4. To communicate accurately using construction graphic symbols and
standards
5. To learn how to chose correct load-bearing system for proposed
design solution and enable its‘ buildability
6. To acquaint knowledge about construction elements and building systems
possibilities as base for creative construction solutions
7. To acquire knowledge about technical documentation and levels of
detailing in various drawings (from less detailed to more accurate)
8. To get the basic understanding of dimensions of load-bearing systems
and elements.

Raffles International Institute LOADS
1. STATIC LOADS:
A static load is the effect of gravity on
an object or structure and applied
slowly to structure.
vertical loads: snow loads
accumulated on the roof, dead loads
by construction elements by itself,
rain water accumulation, pool
equipment, underground Hydrostatic
and soil pressure etc
live loads: water tanks, furniture
weights and occupancy equipment,
weight of people
2. DYNAMIC LOADS:
A dynamic load is the forces that
move or change when acting on a
structure.
rapid kinetic changes: wind loads,
earthquake, movable tracks or
vibration equipment, sudden forces
and loads
3. IMPACT LOADS:

STATIC LOADS: DYNAMIC LOADS:

Raffles International Institute STRUCTURAL EQUILIBRIUM

DISTRIBUTION OF LOADS
• CONCENTRATED LOADS
acts on a small areaor particular poin os a supporting
structure element: beam, column and it is transfered to its
footing.
2. UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTED LOAD
is a load of uniformly distributed magnitude extended
over the length of area of suppoting structure element:
slab, beam, wall and transfered to it foundation.

WHEN WE SPEAK OF ARCHITECTURE AS ART OF
BUILDING, WE SHALL CONSIDER FOLLOWING
CONCEPTUAL SYSTEMS OF ORDER:
1.The definition scale, proportion, organization of the
interior space of the building
2.Human activities in the space, ergonomic needs, their
size and dimension
3.Access to the horzontal and vertical paths of movement
through the interior of building
4.The aesthetic qualities of a building:shape, form, light,
space size, materials, textures, colors, patterns etc
5.The building as integral component within natural and
built environment
6.The building as coherent structure of its elements

ELEMENTS OF BUILDINGS:
1.STRUCTURAL LOAD-BEARING SYSTEM:
substructure (foundations), superstructure (vertical
elements: walls, columns, pillars, diagonal earthquake
support), horizontal extensions (slabs, beams, rings),
roof structure
2.ENCLOSURE SYSTEM:
exterior walls, roof clading and covering,
doors,windows, interior walls and partitions to
subdivide interior space into spatial units
1.MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, HEATING, LIGHTING,
WATER SUPPLY, WATER SEWERAGE, VENTILATION,
COOLING, FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS

WALLS AND SLABS SYSTEM:
A. Longitudinal: one way of
systems of joists or slabs,
walls or columns
B. Transversal: two-way systems
of beams and slabs – more
effective for square bays
C. Two-way slab: supported by
four columnts
D. Combined: load bearing
walls, slabs or joists.
CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS:
• FOUNDATIONS
• WALLS
• SLABS
• REINFORCED CONCRETE
