The document discusses various types of structural loads that act on steel buildings, including dead loads, live loads, and roof live loads. It provides examples of how to calculate the tributary area for different structural elements like beams, columns, and slabs. It also explains how to calculate dead loads from structural components and how live loads may be reduced based on the tributary area supported using reduction factors from the ASCE standards. Roof live loads can also be reduced using two reduction factors based on the slope and tributary area. Three examples are provided to demonstrate calculating loads on different structural elements.

Dissipative Capacity Analysis of Steel Buildings using Viscous Bracing Deviceidescitation
Energy dissipation Systems in civil engineering structures are sought when it
comes to removing unwanted energy such as instability, earthquake and wind. Among these
systems, there is the combination of structural steel frames with passive energy dissipation
provided by Fluid Viscous Dampers (FVD). This device is increasingly used to provide
better seismic protection for existing as well as new buildings and bridges. A 3 D numerical
investigation is done considering the seismic response of a twelve-story steel building
moment frame with diagonal FVD that have linear force versus velocity behaviour.
Nonlinear time history, which is being calculated by Fast nonlinear analysis (FNA), of
Boumerdes earthquake (Algeria, May 2003) is considered for the analysis and carried out
using the SAP2000 software and comparisons between unbraced, braced and damped
structure are shown in a tabulated and graphical format. The results of the various systems
are studied to compare the structural response with and without this device of the energy
dissipation thus obtained were discussed. The conclusions showed the formidable potential
of the FVD to improve the dissipative capacities of the structure without increasing its
rigidity. It is contributing significantly to reduce the quantity of steel necessary for its
general stability.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Chapter 2: Design Loads for
Buildings
Chapter Objectives:
Identify different types of structural loads acting on
steel structures.
Calculation of structural loads acting on typical steel
buildings according to the latest edition of the ASCE
standards.
2. Introduction
Loads and load combinations are to be taken from
the governing building code;
In the absence of a building code, use the ASCE/SEI
“Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other
Structures” provided by the American Society for
Civil Engineers (ASCE) as stated by AISC-LRFD
Manual (pp. 16.1-10).

4. Design Loads on Steel Structures
• Examples of common design loads are:
Dead Load (D);
Live Load Due to Occupancy and movable equipment (L);
Roof Live Load (Lr);
Wind Load (W);
Earthquake Load (E).
5. Load Path and Tributary Areas

9. Dead Load
• It is the self-weight of all construction materials
incorporated into the building (i.e., Permanent Load).
• Examples:
Structural components (slabs, beams, girders, and
columns).
Floors, roofs and ceilings materials.
Exterior walls, cladding, windows, and doors.
Interior permanent walls and partitions.
Fixed service equipments (heating, air-
conditioning, elevators, cranes, …etc.)
10. Dead Load
• As a result of its deterministic nature, Dead loads can
be estimated with only a small margin of error.
• Recommended minimum design dead loads in (psf)
and (kN/m2) are provided by Table C3-1 of the ASCE7-
16 Standard.
• Table C3-2, in the ASCE7-16 Standard provides
minimum densities (pcf and kN/m3) for construction
materials.
16. Dead Load
Example 1
The floor system of a building consists of 5 inch-thick reinforced
concrete slab resting on four steel floor beams, which in turn are
supported by two steel girders as shown in the figure. The cross-
sectional areas of the floor beams and the girders are 14.7 in2 and
52.1 in2, respectively. Determine the dead loads acting on the
beams CG and DH and the girder AD.
(A = 52.1 in2)
17. Dead Load
Solution
Dead load on beam CG:
from ASCE7-10, Table C3-2 (page 266): gconc = 150 lb/ft3
Based on the tributary area carried by the beam CG:
Load from the concrete slab = gconc * tslab *btributary
Load from R.C. slab = (150 lb/ft3) (5/12 ft) (10 ft) = 625 lb/ft
(A = 52.1 in2)
18. Dead Load
Dead load on beam CG:
from ASCE7-10, Table C3-2 (page 266): gsteel = 492 lb/ft3
Own weight of the steel beam = gsteel * Area of beam(ft2)
weight of steel beam = (492 lb/ft3) (14.7/144 ft2) = 50 lb/ft
Total uniform dead load = 625 + 50 = 675 lb/ft
(A = 52.1 in2)
19. Dead Load
Dead load on beam DH:
Based on the tributary area carried by the beam DH:
Load from the concrete slab = gconc * tslab *btributary
= (150 lb/ft3) (5/12 ft) (5 ft)
= 312.5 lb/ft
(A = 52.1 in2)
20. Dead Load
(A = 52.1 in2)
Dead load on beam DH:
Own weight of the steel beam = gsteel * Area of beam(ft2)
weight of steel beam = (492 lb/ft3) (14.7/144 ft2) = 50 lb/ft
Total uniform dead load = 312.5 + 50 = 362.5 lb/ft
21. Dead Load
Dead load on girder AD:
The distributed dead load on girder AD is due to its own weight only
Own weight of the girder = gsteel * Area of beam(ft2)
= (492 lb/ft3) (52.1/144 ft2) = 178 lb/ft
(A = 52.1 in2)
22. Dead Load
(A = 52.1 in2)
10,770 lb10,770 lb
Dead load on girder AD:
The dead load acting on BF is the same as for CG
So, the reactions from BF and CG are the same = 8100 lb
23. In general, Live Load varies in magnitude with time
It is the load resulting from all non-permanent
installations in the building;
The Live Load value varies from one location to
another inside the building.
Examples of Live Loads:
building occupants.
furniture.
office equipment.
movable room partitions,…etc .
Live Load
24. • Live load on buildings can be divided into two main
components:
1) Sustained Live Load (SLL): weight of relatively
permanent fixtures and furnishings.
2) Transient Live Load (TLL): weight of occupants who
enter and leave the space.
Live Load
26. In general, live loads are prescribed in building
codes based on occupancy, location, and
importance of the building;
Due to the uncertainty associated with the
expected value of Live loads, they are estimated
with a much larger margin of error than in dead
load.
Forms of application of live loads:
I. Uniformly Distributed Live Load;
II. Concentrated Live Load.
Live Load
27. 27
Live Load
Live loads due to vehicular traffic on highway bridges
the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Specification
defines two systems of standard trucks, H trucks and
HS trucks, to represent the vehicular loads for design
purposes.
28. Impact Loads: Moving vehicles may bounce or sidesway
as they move over a bridge, and therefore they impart
an impact to the deck. The percentage increase of the
live loads due to impact is called the impact factor, I.
28
Live Load
Live loads for railroad bridges are specified by the
American Railway Engineering and Maintenance of
Way Association (AREMA) in the Manual for Railway
Engineering.
29. Tables 4-1 and C4-1 in the ASCE7-16 Standard
provide minimum values for live loads (Lo) in (psf)
and (kN/m2);
Live load values (Lo) provided in the tables may be
reduced depending on the tributary area supported
by the structural element under consideration;
What is the “Tributary Area” and how may it differ
from a structural element to another in the same
building?
Live Load
34. A tributary area for a member is the area that, when
loaded, causes a stress change in the member.
Example (1): Tributary Area for Column Load

37. • Reduction in Live Load: A reduced live load may be

The plan below shows a floor system of the offices area
in an office building. Use the ASCE7-16 standards to
calculate the live loads acting on the beams CG and DH
and the girder AD.
40. KLL AT= 2 * 240 = 480 ft2 > 400 ft2 (reduction is needed)
Solution
Live load on beam CG:
From ASCE7-10, Table 4-1, Lo = 50 psf
From ASCE7-10, Table 4-2, KLL for interior beam CG = 2

52. The reduced live load must not be less than 50
percent of Lo for members supporting one floor or a
section of a single floor, nor less than 40 percent of Lo
for members supporting two or more Floors;
For a column or beam supporting more than one
floor, the term AT represents the sum of the tributary
areas from all floors;
Reduction in live load is not permitted for public
assembly areas or when the live load is high (>100
psf).
Live Load
53. Roof Live Load
Example 3
For the three-story building shown in the figures below.
Calculate the design live load supported by the interior
column C located in the first story. Assume a 50 lb/ft2
design live load, Lo, on all floors including the roof.
54. Solution
Roof live load on Column C:
Lr = Lo R1R2
AT = 20(24) = 480ft2
R1 = 1.2 − 0.001 (480) = 0.72
R2 = 1.0
Lroof = LoR1R2
= 50(0.72)(1.0) = 36.0 psf
Roof Live Load
55. Roof Live Load
Solution
Floor live load on Column C:
the tributary area for the remaining two floors
AT= 2(480) = 960 ft2
KLL AT= 4 * 960 = 3840 ft2 > 400 ft2
(reduction is needed)
56. Solution
Total live load on Column C:
Since 24.6 lb/ft2 > 0.4 × 50 lb/ft2 = 20 lb/ft2 (the lower limit)
So, use L = 24.6 lb/ft2.
Load to column = AT(Lroof) + 2AT(Lfloor)
= 480(36.0) + 960(24.6)
= 40,896 lb = 40.9 kips.
Roof Live Load
