DESIGN LOAD CRITERIA

A. DEAD LOAD
Dead loads includes load that are relatively constant
over time

Table 204-2
(NSCP 6th edition 4th printing)

including the weight of structure itself and immovable fixtures

such as
walls. Roof is also a dead load. Dead loads are also
known as permanent load.

Live loads are usually unstable or moving loads. These
dynamic loads
may involve considerations such as impact, momentum,
vibrations, slosh

D. SEISMIC LOAD
The phillipine archipelago is divided into two seismic
zones only. Zone 2
covers the provinces of Palawan, Sulu, tawi-tawi while the rest
of the countrys
part is under zone 4. Each structure shall be assigned a
seismic zone factor Z.
