Challenge

Project 1

1. Design a multi-story Residential Building located in Bangalore using STAAD Pro Connect Edition. The specification must be as follows:

Building floors

G + 6 + R

Plan dimension

B = 25m ,  L = 16m

Storey Height

h = 3.5m

Soil 

Hard soil

Use

Residential Purpose

Safe Bearing Capacity

180 kN/m2

Maximum slab thickness

150mm

Assume suitable sections for structural elements. Follow IS456, IS1893, and IS 875

Aim & Introduction

To design a multi-story Residential Building located in Bangalore using STAAD Pro Connect Edition.

Procedure

Unit weight of the materials

Reinforced Cement Concrete = `25` `kN//m^3`

Plain Cement Concrete = `24` `kN//m^3`

Cement Concrete Screed = `20` `kN//m^3`

Cement Masonry Units = `22` `kN//m^3`

Structural Steel = `78.5` `kN//m^3`

Soil = `18` `kN//m^3`

Dead Load

Floor slab 

Slab weight = `3.75` `kN//m^2` `(0.15 mxx25 kN//m^3)`

Partitions = `1.5` `kN//m^2`

Floor Finish = `2.5` `kN//m^2`

Miscellaneous = `1` `kN//m^2`

Total Floor Load = 8.75 `kN//m^2`

Roof slab

Slab weight = `3.75` `kN//m^2` `(0.15 mxx25 kN//m^3)`

Insulaions and Water Proofing = `0.5` `kN//m^2`

MEP Services = `0.5` `kN//m^2`

Miscellaneous = `0.5` `kN//m^2`

Total Roof Load = 5.25 `kN//m^2`

Live Load

Floor slab 

Common Corridor = `3` `kN//m^2`

Total Floor Load = 3 `kN//m^2`

Roof slab

Accessible Roof = `1.5` `kN//m^2`

Total Roof Load = 1.5 `kN//m^2`

Result & Conclusion

Thus the multi-story Residential Building located in Bangalore has been designed for the given input.
