Challenge

Project 2_Analyze and Design the RC office building as per IS standard code in TEKLA STRUCTURAL DESIGNER

Aim - To develop arrangement of and analyse the RC building according to all the loads

Procedure -

In the home tab invoke manage property sets

There click on new and add

Coloumn in the member

You give all the properties of the soloumn such as grade steel and cover

In teh same add new for slab,pile cap and foundation

In the same way add all the properties of the materials in teh following mentioned below

Levels

In the models there is construction lines invoke that command

Then add levels one by one

Base as foundation at 500mm from base

Then first floor at height of 3.7

Second at height of 3.6

Grids

In the same tab there is grids tool

Then draw first grid line

Then select parallel grid line and give distance by clicking F2

Do same to all the grids

The give perpendicular distance

Then give parallel to all the grids

Now manage propert sets

Beams B1 M55 and size 600x600

Coloumn M55 and size 900x900

Then slab of thickness 600 slab on beams one way and two way

Model in the grids in all the floors according to plan given

Dead loads

Finishers as given 0.05m

0.05m x 24Kn/m2(density)

=0.24

Brick wall load

Wall thickness 1540mm

For ground floor height is 5.5m

20x0.150x5.5

= 11.1Kn/m

For first floor

height is 10.95m

Then load is = 10.95Kn/m

Slab load is calculated by the software

Ceiling is 1.5Kn/m

DEAD LOADS

Then loads

In the load cases in the loads tab

See weather all the loads are there are not if not add new as wind and type as wind

Seismic as seismic type

Then go to load combo

Generate new load combo

Table then see all the load combos and next and finish

If you want to add new combo add new

Dead loads are already calculated

Self weight is calculated by software itself

Finishers loads

1.2 KN/m2

Select dead in the bottom left bar

Then add area load give value as 1.2

Select all the slabs it will add the loads

Check in 3d

Do in all the floors

Wall loads

Ground floor

11.1 KN/m2

Select dead in the bottom left bar

Then add line load give value as 11.1

Select all the beams it will add the loads

Check in 3d

First floor

10.5 KN/m2

Select dead in the bottom left bar

Then add line load give value as 10.5

Select all the beams it will add the loads

Check in 3d

Roof loads

Switch on roof panel

Area load and give load as 1.5

Start applying on teh roof

Validate in every interval and rectify errors

Change load cases to imposed

Give area load and give loads according to is876

Give loads in all the rooms as 3 and 5 KN/m2

In all the floors do the same as we done before

For roof add 1.5 because it is accesible according to code

Validate in every interval

n trhe load tab select seismic load

Then select seismic load wizard

Select code spectra and next

Check all the building parameters

Give as zone 2 and factor of compaction according to code

Next and we have no irregularities so click on it and ok

Then give as equivalant lateral force and next

Then approximate fundamental time period and next

Give seismic force resisting system

Give as moment frame system in both dir

Then give RC with OMRF in system

In effective seismic weight select all and shift to right side

See all the combi and service and finish

Then generate and replace and next and next and finish

We have to do the interactive design

Before analysing

Check all parameters such as cover, grade and reinforcement

Run the analysis

Take any frame

Check deflection for the coloumn

Right click on the coloumn

Chek the coloumn is safe or not if not

Then go to interactive design and then to static

Check coloumn one by one

Increase the bar dia first and check

If it is not safe then increase the bar count

If still fails finally increase the section size it will be passed

Do this for all the coloumns until they are safe

Do it frame by frame

Change the stirrups dia as 10

Check deflection for the beam

It is also just like the coloumn

Right click on the beam

Chek the coloumn is safe or not if not

Then go to interactive design and then to static

Check beam one by one

Increase the bar dia first and check

If it is not safe then increase the bar count

If still fails finally increase the section size it will be passed

Do this for all the coloumns until they are safe

Do it frame by frame

Slab design

Firstly check the reinforcement details in the settings

Give the min and max reinforcement and give numbers also

Go to any one of the floor

Makes only slabs as visible

Check all the properties

Fe415, bar dia as 10, c/c dist as 175 and cover

Now check one by one slab

Select one slab and right click and check panel

Then see it is ok or if not ok

Check whick one is not satisfied

If its failing in bending

Firstly decrease the spacing

If its still failing increase the bar dia

Thne check again do until member passes

Do the same thing on all the slabs

On the roof it has more load so increse the steel required

Follow the same process

In the review view check the member failing or safe

Foundation design

Let us design the pile foundation for this model

Check the base reactions first in all directions

Now design foundation

Firstly in the settings

Go to foundtion>pile cap

Give bar size and spacing

Give foundation sizes

Give pile length and dia and shape

Go to base again

Define pile properties in the catalogue

Name as P1 and installation is driven

Type as end bearing

Then give pile capacity also

In the foundation tab

Select pile cap coloumn

Drag to all the foundations

Now one by one select all the coloumns

Design member

Then check member

Check all the parameters

If not meet the parameters increse the pile members and bar sizes and pile dia also

Change orientation if needed

Increase the pile placing also if needed

Can increase the pile depth also if fails in punching shear

In the review tab check status

For piles and pile cap

After the analysis and design

Finally we have to generate the report for model

Firstly do analysis

Then select report in the ribbon

Then select model report

Box appears which contains all the parameters which you want to reported

Drag the parameters to right side which you wanted to report

Since it is a RC structure select

Select In concrete beam,coloumn and pile and pile cap also

To the right side drag all

You can check the summary in the report index

You can also import to pdf also

You can edit header,footer....also

If you want to report only particular floor for beam member

Go to the beam member right click

Model filter edit and add then select the floor you wanted then OK

In the same you can select the frames for coloumns also

Then show reports

In the reports all the parameters are included

You can also add the pictures

We have choosen moment and shear also and axial though

The forces base reactions

We can check one by one sway,wind drift

You can also report the member individually

Select the member and right click then report member

Then in the model member tab select the parameters and drag

We can select the typical member and do it

We can add teh picture of the moment , shear and axial

Drag the wall design , slab mat design in the concrete also

We have added the analysis diagram and 1d and select the frame

A nd the load combinations added on the diagrams
