Module 2 Philosophies of Design by Limit State Method Version 2 CE IIT, Kharagpur Lesson 3 Philosophies of Design by Limit State Method Version 2 CE IIT, Kharagpur Instructional Objectives: At the end of this lesson, the student should be able to: • categorically state the four common steps to be followed in any method of design, • define the limit states, • identify and differentiate the different limit states, • state if the structures are to be designed following all the limit states, • explain the concept of separate partial safety factors for loads and material strengths depending on the limit state being considered, • justify the size effect of concrete in its strength, • name the theory for the analysis of structures to be designed by limit states, • name the method of analysis of statically indeterminate beams and frames, and slabs spanning in two direction at right angles, • justify the need to redistribute the moments in statically indeterminate beams and frames, • identify four reasons to justify the design of structures or parts of the structure by limit state method. 2.3.1 Introduction In any method of design, the following are the common steps to be followed: (i) To assess the dead loads and other external loads and forces likely to be applied on the structure, (ii) To determine the design loads from different combinations of loads, (iii) To estimate structural responses (bending moment, shear force, axial thrust etc.) due to the design loads, (iv)
