Project 2_Design & Analysis of a Hostel building at Guwahati, Assam
Aim: Students will have to produce the following:
Etabs model for the two blocks on either side of the expansion gap
Foundation details illustrating the pile & pile cap reinforcement
Tie beam details connecting the pile caps
Column reinforcement
Framing plan for typical floor
Beam reinforcements for ground floor
Procedure:
1)Open filetoolbox, select new model and choose metric system.
2)Edit the grid data and storey data.
3)Click on define toolbar, define material property and create a new property.
4)Open define toolbar, click on material property and give material property name as Fe415 steel.
5)Similarly create new property a Fe500 of steel rebar.
6)Click on section property under define toolbar and create a new property as column 450x650.
7)Create another new property column 650x450
8)Create a new property slab of thickness 150mm.
9)Create new property beam size of 450x450.
10)Assign beams and columns using quickdraw tool.
11)Apply slabs to the model.
12)As per IS 875 part 2, live load of hostel building room is 2KN brick wall load as 3.5KN and finishing load as 1.2KN.
13)Add new brick wall load, EQx with both positive and negative eccentricity and EQy with positive and negative eccentricity.
14)Modify zone factory as per IS code and assign mass source data.
15)Apply brickwall and live loads to the model.
16)Run the analysis and take Ast values for both beams and reinforcement.













Result: Etabs model for the two blocks on either side of the expansion gap successfully completed.
