Ramp Load Calculation and Design Guide

The document outlines the calculations for the design of a ramp load, including dimensions, slab thickness, and self-weight of various components. It details the dead and live loads, factored load calculations, and reinforcement requirements using specific formulas and values. The final recommendations include the use of 16 mm and 12 mm diameter reinforcement bars at specified spacings for structural integrity.

Ramp Load

Length of Landing = 2 m

Horizontal Length of Stairs = 3 m

Width = 1.2 m

Slab Thickness = 150 mm

Minimum Slab Thickness NSCP 2015 Table [Link]

Landing: 2000/20 = 100 mm

Waist Slab: 3000/20 = 150 mm

Therefore, Adapt size of 150 mm for Waist Slab

Self-Weight of Waist Slab on Landing:

23.6 kN/m3 (0.15m) (1m) = 3.54 kN/m

Self-Weight of Waist Slab on Going:

23.6 kN/m3 (0.15m) (1m) = 3.54 kN/m

Floor Finish: 1.53 kN/m2 (1 m) = 1.53 kN/m

NSCP 2015 Table

Steel Railings 77.3 kN/m3 x 0.05m x 1.0 = 3.865 kN/m

Dead Load: (3.54 + 1.53 + 3.865) = 8.935 kN/m

Dead Load inclined @ 4.76 degrees:

Live Load: (4.8kN/m2) (1m) = 4.8 kN/m

Live Load inclined @ 4.76 degrees:

Factored Load:
