This document discusses different types of building structures: load bearing, framed, and composite. Load bearing structures transfer loads directly to the foundation through walls. The walls are the main load-carrying members, so if a wall collapses the whole structure is at risk. Framed structures are more stable as they transfer loads through beams and columns to the foundation, with non-load bearing walls for cladding. Questions are provided about designing load bearing and reinforced concrete framed structures for bungalows with specific room requirements, including plans, elevations, sections and schedules.

Load Bearing Structure
• Load bearing Structure transfer the load to
Foundation in this way,
Slab Wall Foundation
• The Foundation of load bearing structure are
made with Rubble Masonry or with Stone
which bear all load coming from the wall.
• Wall is actually load carrying member.
• And Problem is also that when the wall
collapse in any situation then whole structure
will collapse.

Framed Structure
• The Frame structure are more stable and
reliable in Earthquake.
• Frame Structure make whole structure
Flexible.
• Frame Structure transfer the load in this Path.
Slab Beam Column Foundation
• In the Frame Structure the load carrying
Element is The Beam and Column.
• The brick don't take any type of load but it is
used for cladding.
