Floor Loadings in Domestic Buildings - The Results of a Survey

G. R. Mitchell / R. W. Woodgate

A description is given of a survey of imposed floor loadings in domestic buildings. Loads due to furniture and those due to persons were both included in the survey. Results are analyzed separately for flats and for the various floor stages present in houses. Loading intensities, equivalent uniformly distributed loads, and load concentration factors are given in statistical terms both for the different categories of room and also for floor zones in eight ranges of area lying between 1 and 70 square meters. The composition of the heavier loadings is indicated. The information given should contribute toward the assessment of design loadings for future buildings of this type.
