Load metering in buildings: traditional method manually and computationally (ETABS)

Abstract

The process of load metering in buildings is crucial to guarantee structural safety and efficiency in the design and construction of structures. This scientific study examines various load metering methodologies used in civil engineering and architecture, evaluating their accuracy, advantages and limitations. Traditional approaches are compared both manually and advanced computational methods, considering factors such as structural complexity, live and dead loading, as well as seismic conditions. The findings highlight the importance of adopting comprehensive and accurate approaches to load metering, with significant implications for building design and safety.
