Project 2_Design & Analysis of a Hostel building at Guwahati, Assam

Aim: To experience the entire design process from modelling, analysis, design, and preparation of construction drawings.

The architectural drawings of a G+3 RCC building are provided.

Location – Guwahati, Assam

Function – Hostel block in an academic institute

Codes used :

  • IS 875 part 1
  • IS 875 part 2
  • IS 13920
  • IS 1893
  • IS 2911 part 2
  • IS 456
  • SP 34

Procedure:

Select the Indian Design parameters

Define the Material Properties

Material M25 Concrete is created

Material Fe 415 is created

Material FE 500 is created

Grid system is created as per the Given plan in the Auto CAD drawing

StoryData is created as per the AutoCAD Drawing

Frame Data Column 600*400 mm is assumed with M 25 Concrete Material

Properties of Column

Frame Data Beam 500*300mm is assumed with M 25 Concrete Material

Fe 500 steel is selected as Longitudinal Bars

Fe 415 steel is selected as Confinement Bars

Arrange the Column by Relipicate Option for Rotating 90 deg

Arrangement of columns in plinth Level

Slabs are Created with 150 mm Thickness and Membrane type Modelling

Similarly, Beams and slabs are Drawn

Frame members are Replicated in the Higher Floors

Fixed Support is provided at the Base of the Columns for all the Joints

Now Add load Patterns:

IS 875 Part 1

Dead Load = Self-weight of the Members

Brickwall load

Given AAC blocks are to be used density = 6 KN/m3 as per IS 875 Part 1

Height of the Brick wall = Floor Height - Beam depth

= 3.45 - 0.5

=2.95 m

Given thickness of Brickwall = 0.2 m

Brick wall load = 6*2.95*0.2 = 3.54 KN/m

Assume plaster thickness = 0.024 m

density of plaster = 20KN/m3

Plaster load = 0.024*20*2.95 = 1.416 KN/m

Total Brickwall Thickness = 4.956 = approx 5 KN/m for all story

For Parappet wall Total Brickwall Load = (0.9*0.2*6)+(0.9*0.024*20) = 1.5 KN/m

Given Floor finishes as Vitrified Tile

Floor finish load= 1.25 KN/m2

Floor finish + Water Proof in Toilets = 1.5 KN/m2

IS 875 Part 2

Live Loads

Room and Wardener's Room = 2 KN/m2

Recreational Room = 3 KN/m2

Kitchen Room = 3 KN/m2

Dining Room = 4 KN/m2

Toilet and Bath rooms = 2 KN/m2

Corridors and Passage = 3 KN/m2

Store Room = 5 KN/m2

Balconies = 4 KN/m2

Earthquake Load IS 1893:2016

Guwahati, Assam comes under Zone 5 as per IS 1893 2016

Based on IS 1893 for Special Moment Resisting Frames we have

Response Reduction Factor R = 5 From Table 9 for SMRF = 5

Seismic Zone Factor for Zone 5 is Z= 0.36

Assume site Type = Type 2

Importance Factor of the Building = 1

Moment Resisting Frames with Masonry Infills clause 7.6.2 c

Time period = 0.5 second

Load assignments:

Assign > Frame loads > Distributed

5KN/m for all storys

1.5 KN/m for Roof Parapet wall

Load applied on Beams

Load on slabs

Go to Assign > Shell loads > Distributed

1.5 KN/m2 for Tiles including waterproof

Go to Assign > Shell loads > Distributed

1.25 KN/m2 for Tiles

Live loads applied on Slabs

3 KN/m on Kitchen and Dining Rooms, Meeting Room etc

2 KN/m2 for all other Rooms

Apply seismic load using Mass Source Data

Define > Load Combinations

Generate the Load Combinations for all the given loads

Obtained 38 load Combinations

Assign the Diaphragm

Assign > Shell > Diaphragms

ANALYSIS:

Now ANALYSE the Structure we get the following Values:

Values of all the Reactions

Display > Show tables > Analysis Results > Structure Output > Modal Information > Table : Modal Participation Mass Ratio

In this Analysis

It is found that

UY = 70 %

UX = 69%

RZ = 70%

Hence UX should be made stiffer.

Now SAFE software is used for Foundation Design

Import the Model to Safe as F2K file

By taking all the Loads from thr upper stories

View of Loads taken from ETABS

Now Material Properties are taken M25, Fe500

Fe 500

Soil subgrade Property is considered

Slab Property is defined for Pilecap, Pile

points are drawn for creating pile caps

Pile caps are drawn as shown below using Points

Circular Piles of 500 mm dia are drawn below the PileCaps

View of Load Patterns

design Preferences selected for IS 456-2000

Now ANALYSIS is Run to get the Reinforcement Details of the Pilecaps and Pile

IS 2911 Part 1 is Considered for the Design and Construction of the Pile Foundations

Part 1 Concrete piles

Section 2 Bored cast In situ Concrete Piles

Clause 6 = Design considerations for Piles

clause 6.3 Pile Capacity

Clause 6.5.2 Lateral load Capacity

Clause 6.6 Spacing of Piles

Clause 6.11 Reinforcement Deatiling of Piles

SP34 is Hand Book on Concrete Reinforcement and Detailing

This doesn't consider the Ductile Detailing

SP 34 =Section 6 = Foundations

SP 34 =Section 7 = Columns

SP 34 =Section 8 = Beams

SP 34 =Section 9 = Floor slabs

SP 34 =Section 12 = ductility Requirements of EQ Resistant Buildings
