This paper provides a comparative analysis of traditional methods and load sequence analysis in the design of slabs and/or beams that support planted columns subjected to gravity loads. The evaluation highlights the outcomes of structural analysis, including deflection and maximum bending moment, along with the necessary safety factors for each method. Additionally, it delineates the differences in analysis results produced by these systems within the constraints of gravity loads arising from the construction phase across multiple repetitive floors. The study also significantly examines the shear strength of reinforced concrete sections in both analytical approaches. Ultimately, structural engineers may observe that load sequence analysis results in greater deflection and bending moments in transfer beams or slabs compared to traditional analysis, as it accounts for deformation at each stage of the load sequence, reflecting practical construction applications.
