ype of Construction examples: ype I ype V Code Requirements Good design practice starts with code check: Building codes define Type of Construction based on fire resistance Floor area and height limits are based on Type of Construction and Occupancy • Type I may be steel, concrete, or masonry with no height and floor area limitation • Type II may be steel, concrete, or masonry with some height and floor area limitation • Type III, IV, and V may be of any material but subject to limited height and floor area • Codes define allowable stress for material: wood, steel, concrete, and masonry • Codes define floor live loads based on occupancy and roof load based on location • Codes define design methods and required loads for gravity, wind, and earthquakes Structure selection and design Copyright Prof Schierle 2012 13
