👉Various types of load acting on column

🚧1. self weight of column (dead load) - volume of concrete + weight of steel

🚧2. self of weight of beam per meter running length for instance there are two beams with dimension of Beam 1:-
Given D= 30cm W= 20cm length = 4m

Beam 2:- D= 30cm W= 20cm length = 5m which beam do you the dead load is greater ?

Obviously:-Beam 2 because it’s spam is greater volume of beam = W x L x d (concrete)
+ rebar weight .... if it’s RC beam

🚧3. Weight of slab per square meter (if it’s flat slab it directly acts on the column but if it’s with a beam with a flange the load comes from slab to beam from beam to column from column to foundation)
