Live Load Reduction (CBC 1607.9)
Live load shall NOT be reduced for the following:
Public Assembly Occupancies.
- Passenger Vehicle Garages, except live load for members supporting >= 2 floors is permitted to be reduced by 20% maximum but not less than the calculated per formula above.
- One-way Slab, except live load for members supporting >= 2 floors is permitted to be reduced by 20% maximum but not less than the calculated per formula above.
- L>100 psf, except live load for members supporting >= 2 floors is permitted to be reduced by 20% maximum but not less than the calculated per formula above.
- Partition Load of 15 psf for floors of office buildings can not be reduced, except when the total floor live load >80 psf. (CBC 1607.5)
Note:
1. KLL is for converting Tributary Area of AT into Influence Area. KLL*AT = Influence Area.
See the ASCE Figure C4 copied below for how KLL is derived.
2. For walls, the reduced live load can also be determined using the same procedure for columns. For example, shear walls around an opening at slab edge can be collectively considered as an edge column without a cantilever slab.
Note:
- Special Purpose Roofs: Roofs used for promenade, roof gardens, assembly or other special purposes shall be designed for a minimum live load as required in Table 1607.1. Such roof live loads are permitted to be reduced per 1607.9. (CBC 1607.11.2.2)

- Greenhouse shall be designed for a minimum roof live load of 12psf. (CBC 1607.11.2.1)
Dead Loads
Definition of Dead Load
DEAD LOADS: The weight of materials of construction incorporated into the building, including but not limited to walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, stairways, built-in partitions, finishes,
cladding and other similarly incorporated architectural and structural items, and the weight of fixed service equipment, such as cranes, plumbing stacks and risers, electrical feeders,
heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems and fire sprinkler systems. (IBC 1602.1)
Typical Values of Dead Loads:
Building Elements DL
1 Lightweight Floor Finish 8 psf/in
2 Suspended Ceiling 2 psf
3 Plaster Ceiling 8 psf/in
4 Electrical and Mechanical Utilities 2 psf
5 Moveable Partitions 20 psf

Live Loads
Definition of Live Loads
LIVE LOADS: Those loads produced by the use and occupancy of the building or other structure and do not include construction or environmental loads such as wind load, snow load,
rain load, earthquake load, flood load or dead load. (IBC 1602.1).
Uniform Live Loads and Concentrated Live Loads Minimum Values
Partition Load = 15 psf
for office buildings and other buildings where partition locations are subject to change. Provisions for partition weight shall be made, whether or not partitions are
shown on the construction documents, unless the specified live load exceeds 80 psf .
Truck and Bus Garage Live Load Minimum Values
Minimum live loads for garages having trucks or buses shall be as specified in Table 1607.6 below, but shall not be less than 50 psf. (IBC 1607.6)
The concentrated load and uniform load shall be uniformly distributed over a 10-foot width on a line normal to the centerline of the lane placed within a 12-foot-wide lane. The loads shall be placed within their individual lanes so as to produce the maximum stress in each structural member. Single spans shall be designed for the uniform load in Table 1607.6 and one simultaneous concentrated load positioned to produce the maximum effect. Multiple spans shall be designed for the uniform load in Table 1607.6 on the spans and two simultaneous concentrated loads in two spans positioned to produce the maximum negative moment effect. (IBC 1607.6.1)
Horizontal Loads on Interior Walls and Partitions
Interior walls and partitions that exceed 6 feet in height, including their finish materials, shall have adequate strength to resist the loads to which they are subjected but not less than a horizontal load of 5 psf. (IBC 1607.13)
