DOUBLE STORY RESEARCH
For this assignment, we are choose to do in group to study a double story house. We are ask to do research about opening and wall, ceiling, stairs, flooring and relationship between beams and columns. For my part, I’ll do research about relationship between beams and columns.
The basic difference thing between them which is they both are same material wise. If keep it horizontal it is call beam. Beam carries the load by bending also called flexure. If keep it vertically forms a columns it carries load by undergoing compression.
COLUMNS
In building structures, columns are build on different footings to transfer the load of the building to the footings of the building. There are two type of columns which is slender columns and short columns. The column is said to be slender, if the cross sectional dimensions are small compared to its length. When the condition of the columns is opposite to that slender columns, the columns are classified as short columns and short columns normally use more then slender columns.
BEAMS
In the structure, beam columns is used to carry the loads from the slabs to the columns. The concrete beam can be classified as T beams, L beams and rectangular beams. For more information, there are I section, L section and U section in the steel bar. Beams are normally designed for bending moments and sheer stress. Due to the loading, the vertical reinforcement is used to prevent the shear stresses when transverse reinforcement is used to prevent the bending moments.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN COLUMNS AND BEAM
For the relationship between columns and beam, they are load carrying elements but differ in the method or the way of handling the load by each member. The columns bear the compression of the load where the beams bear the bending moment and the shear force of the load. They both have the similar material to used in contraction which is steel, timber and concrete. A building can't stand without columns but building can stand without beam. The columns are classified as two type which is slender and snort while beams classified three type which isT,L or rectangular.
