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

Q1).

Data required for ETABS analysis :

  • Pinned support, Base + 5Story (Plinth To Roof) + 1 Mumty
  • Column 450mm x 650mm, Beam 400mm x 500mm, Slab 150mm thick, No shear wall necessary.
  • Floor live load 2KN/m2

Terrace live load 1 KN/m2

Floor finish + Ceiling finish 1 KN/m2

Partition wall load 3.5 KN/m

Balcony wall load 1 KN/m

  • Guwahati seismic zone-v

Set Grid as per given dimensions

Set story with proper height

Add Column properties Column sized as 450x650 :

Set slab properties thickness as 150mm :

Create appropriate column and beam

Create slab as per given dimensions:

Define load patterns :

  • Define Load Values
  • Live load from IS 875 Part-2 = 2KN/m^2

  • Thickness X height X Density => 0.2m X 3.5m X 550 kg/m^3 = 385 kg/m = 385/100 = 3.85kn/m =3.9 kn/m

  • Floor finish = 1.5kn/m^2

  • Define Mass sources/ load cases

Define load cases

Define load combinations:

  • Define Diaphragram

  • Check modal after run analyisis

  • Check Maximum story drift not excceding 0.004 (as per code)
  • EQx is 0.002209 <0.004 (ok)

  • EQy is 0.002599 <0.004

Result :-

  • BOTH (EQx or EQy) OF THE STORY DRIFT ARE WITHIN THE CODAL LIMITS WHICH IS 0.004MM OR 4M.

Concrete Design Check:

  • Now Lets Transfer the Load, Base reaction, grids or etc from Etabs to Safe22

GIVEN DATA:
⦁ Column Size : 450 mm X 600mm and 600mmX450mm.
⦁ Soil Type : III.
⦁ Length of the piles : 10m.
⦁ Pile Diameter : 500 mm diameter.
⦁ Load Carrying Capacity of Pile: 280 KN.
⦁ Pile Cap - Slab type _ Matt of 50 mm thickness.
⦁ Column Cap - Slap type - Stiff of 500 mm thickness.
⦁ Pile length : 16 mm
⦁ Soil Bearing Capacity : 150 KN/sq.m.
⦁ So the first step is to define the materials and the section property.
⦁ After that there will be another dialouge box named as the Define Materials.
⦁ Define the material properties

  • Add Slab property
  • First add footing/Pile CAP( in later i will increase the depth upto 1200mm)

  • First add Column ( which is stiff)( in later i will increase the depth upto 1200mm)
  • Also Add Plie (Dia of Pile is 500mm) (which is Footing) ( in later i will increase the depth upto 1200mm)

  • Calculate soil Subgrade / point Spring Constant
  • Piles in the springs are defined as spring so for that the spring constant

    K=EA/L

    E-5000 * (fck)^0.5=> 5000(25)^0.5= 25000 N/mm 2

    Area of pile = (3.414 * d^2)/4 => 3.142 (500)^2/4 => 196350mm^2

    L= 10000mm (10m)

    K= 25000*0.7855/16-306835.9N/mm= 490875N/m => 490.875 KN/m

  • Soil type 3

    Safe bearing capacity X factored to ultimate / Maximum settlement

    => 150 X 3 / 0.05 = 9000KN/m^2

  • Check All Loads, Load combo, load pattern are available

  • Firstly Placed Pile Cap of Dim-2500mmX2500mm( Some point it will vary)

RESULT :

FINALLY, succeesfully designed and analyzed the model in Etabs.
