Design Dead Loads
a. Dead loads are defined as the weight of all permanent structural
and nonstructural components of the building, such as walls, floors,
roofs, ceilings, finishes, stairways, and fixed service, mechanical,
and utility equipment, including forces caused by prestressing.
b. In estimating dead loads for the purposes of the structural design,
the actual weight and materials in construction will be used.
c.
The weights of all partitions will be considered as dead loads, and
will be estimated in accordance with the partition layouts shown in
the design documents. In the absence of definitive (non-
loadbearing) partition layouts, a unit value of 0.96 kn/m2 (20 psf) on
the floor area will be used in the design.
