Basic Concepts
This chapter on basic concept introduces:
Structural design for:
Strength
Stiffness
Stability
Rupture:惠慍
Rupture length is the maximum length
a bar of constant cross section area can
be suspended without rupture under
its weight in tension (compression for
concrete & masonry).

Structural Systems according to span
Short span: Bearing Wall  Column and Beam  Flat slab  Precast Slab
Medium span: Waffle slabs  Paneled Beams
Large span: Folded Slabs  Concrete and steel frames  Arches  Cantilever Frames  Vierendeel structure  Truss - Shell 
tent Cable
Short span: from 3m to 10 m ( Residential Buildings  Villas  Small
Administrative office  Space in large projects with maximum 10 m
Bearing Wall  Column and Beam  Flat slab  Precast Slab
Bearing Wall
Before concrete  oldest system  touristic village  using stone  hot zones
Load transfer through walls only
No columns or Beams
Slab resting on walls and wall thickness increase towards foundations (ground floor)
Not more than 5 floors
Pros
Cheap
Fast construction
Good insulation for sound and heat
Cons no modifications in the future
Fixed architectural system in all floors
Small openings above each other
Structural systems.pptx
Skeleton Structure: Column and Beam
No roll for walls in the structural system
1- Column and Beam:
Perpendicular column and Beams and pouring slab above them
For residential buildings using solid slab
Minimum dimension for column 30 cm
Span from 3  6 m
Beam depth span / 10 for simple beams for continuous beams span / 12
Slab thickness 10 -12 cm or short span /30
Structural systems.pptx
Flat slab:
Slab reset on columns directly and load transfer from slab to column without beams then foundations
Governmental buildings  public buildings
Span from 8 -9 m
Slab thickness starts from 15 com  span /28
Pros
Larger span than column and beam
Larger free space from columns
Flexibility because there are no beams  easy for electromechanical systems (HVAC  Electrical and plumbing)
Flexibility for interior design
Post tension slab: 悋悒悴悋惆 愕悋惡悸 悋惡悋愀悋惠
Advanced system from flat slab
Consists of beams and columns only
Difference that steel bars are replaced by steel cables  span from 9-12
m
Slab thickness start from 15 cm
Pros
Reduce slab thickness by 20%
Bigger free space from columns
Flexibility as there is no beams - easy for electromechanical systems
(HVAC  Electrical and plumbing
Increase total clear height in each floor
Medium span: Waffle slabs  Paneled Beams
10-16 m  educational studio  Multi purpose halls
Waffle slabs  悋悖惺惶悋惡 悵悋惠 悋惡悋愀悋惠
Distribute sphere or rectangular shapes in roof and pour
concrete on it then remove these shapes and remains the
ribs reacting as beams obtaining a decorative shape from
underneath
Span 12 m
Slab thickness 8 -10 cm
Ribs thickness 20 cm depth of ribs from 40 to 50 cm
Pros
Larger span
Decorative ceiling
Structural systems.pptx
Medium span: Paneled Beams 悋惠悋愀惺悸 悋惘悋惠
-
10-16 m  educational studio  Multi purpose halls
Similar to waffle slab
Consists of perpendicular beams in two directions to form ribs
Minimum dimension for columns 30 cm
Span till 16 m
Beam depth = span / 16
Slab thickness minimum 10 cm
Distance between beams from 2-4 m
Pros
Larger span
Beams can be functionally used
High flexibility in column distribution
Structural systems.pptx
Large span: Folded Slabs  Concrete and steel frames  Arches  Cantilever Frames  Vierendeel structure  Truss - Shell 
tent Cable
From 16 m to above for auditorium  stadium  Factories  Storage - Aircraft hangars  Airports
Concrete systems and steel systems
Folded plate system : 悋愀惡悸 悋惡悋愀悋惠
Folded plate concrete slabs with different shapes
Used in square  rectangular and circular spaces
Span from 15 to 40 m
Percentage of slab thickness to span reach from 1 to 12
Concrete Frames system : 悋悒愀悋惘悋惠
Advanced system of beam and column as they are one body attached together increase strength and durability
Column 40 *60 cm
Span till 20 m
Beam depth = span / 16
Slab thickness 10 cm
Frame width 30  40 cm
Spacing between frames from 4  6m on the long span
Usage in spaces than dont need columns in the middle area
Halls  Multi purpose halls  athletic halls
Pros
Large spans
Capability to bear more loads
Structural systems.pptx
Steel Frames system : 悋悒愀悋惘悋惠 悋忰惆惆
beam and column out of steel connected with bolts or welding
C  L and I cross sections
Column 40 *60 cm
Span till 20 m
Beam depth = span / 16
Slab thickness 10 cm or sandwich panel
Frame width 30  40 cm
Spacing between frames from 4  6m on the long span
Usage in spaces than dont need columns in the middle area
Halls  Multi purpose halls  athletic halls
Pros
Easier than concrete in design
Large spans
Capability to bear more loads
Arches 悋忰悸 悋悒愀悋惘悋惠 惴悋
(
悋惺惆
)
Curved connected without any Breaks
Span 20-35 m
Can reach 70 m in case of increased curvature
Distance between arches 5  7 m on long span
Arch thickness 30 -40 cm
Can be used aesthetically in shaping external building elevations
Cantilever Frames 悋悋惡 `悋悒愀悋惘1w2
Usually used in stadiums
Hanged from one side and the other is free
Vierendeel System 悋惘惆 惴悋
Usually used in hotels to change structure system in lower floors
Shell Structure 悋愆惘悋惠 惴悋
Geometric form from concrete to
define forms internally and
externally
Distinctive architectural style
Curved or folded shapes
Span from 20  60 m
Slab thickness 8 cm
Thickness to span 1/200
For libraries  Airports 
Mosques
 sports Halls
Pros
Covering large spans using small
thickness concrete roofing
High flexibility in form design
because its from concrete
Can cover larger span in case of
vaults reach up to 50 m
Cons
Cannt add another floor because
its the last rood in the building
Opera Sydney
Truss System 悋悴悋悋惠
Structural systems.pptx
Truss System 悋悴悋悋惠
Very high flexibility in the form and large spans without middle columns
First type:
Traditional Truss
Triangular or pyramid shapes with fixed upper and lower members
Can be from wood  Aluminum  Steel
Spacing between trusses 4  6 m
Thickness 30  40 cm
Straight  curved and sphere
Space Truss System 悋悴悋悋惠
悋惘悋愃悸
Most of architects use in big projects
Consists of members bonds the whole structure
Members out of steel with hinges works in three
directions X, Y, Z
Economical solution for large spans from 20  80 m
Depth to span 1/30
Different shapes straight  curved - inclined
Tent structure System 悋悽悸 悋愆悖惠
Is characterized by Flexibility and plasticity
Curved surfaces from synthetic fibers or water
proof fabrics
Depends on vertical supports from concrete or
steel and cables that pull the cover in the
direction of vertical supports
Munich Olympic center
Cable structure System 悋悋惡悋惠 惴悋
Oldest systems previously made out of plant fibers now made
out of steel cables
Main cables transfer loads to secondary cables then to vertical
supports
Cables are made out of flexible steel that bear tension forces
Span From 20 -100 m
Mainly in Bridges  Sports Halls  Airports up to 350 m
span using post tension roofing
Structural systems.pptx
High rise building structure System 悋惺悋悸 惡悋 悋悒愆悋悧悸 悋惴
Core is the main structural system
Where vertical circulation (stairs and elevators) electrical and mechanical rooms
Shear concrete walls and columns most probably out of steel
