Challenge

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

AIM

To design and analyze a hostel building situated in Guwahati using ETABS and SAFE

DESIGN CODE USED

The following design IS codes will be required for the reference

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

REQUIRED DATA

The walls will be made of AAC blocks. Other loadings are to be calculated as per the architectural drawings

The buildings rest on type 3 soil. Piles of length 10 meters and 500mm dia with a load-carrying capacity of 280KN is to be used

M25 grade of concrete with Fe500 for longitudinal reinforcement and Fe415 for shear reinforcement is to be used

PROCEDURE

  • Open ETabs and edit the grids and story data

  • Define the materials

  • Define columns, beams and slab data

  • Define the load cases

  • Define the, mass source

  • Define the diaphragms
  • Now we draw the column, beams and slab in the model.

Beams

COLUMNS

SLABS

At the base, level assign the restrain

  • Assign the load pattern

Seismic loads

According to code loads where assigned

Define live load as the surface load

Define the LOAD Combination

Design Model

  • Draw the shear walls

  • AAC load of 3.5KN/m used
  • Check the response spectrum and analyze the model

  • Calculating time period as per clause 7.6.2 of IS 1893

Tx=0.09/`sqrtd`=0.09*16.85/`sqrt67.7`=0.185sec

Ty = 0.415 sec

  • Check the model so that model participating ratio should be greater than 90%. Hence it is OK

SAFE

  • Open SAFE then load the ETabs file of this project
  • Choose only the base and above in the ETabs model

Given data: Column size = 450*600mm

Pile load-carrying capacity = 280KN

Pile length = 16m, Dia of pile = 500mm

Soil bearing capacity = 150KN/m^2

E=25000KN/m^2

Area of pile = 196375mm^2

Spacing of pile = 1250mm as per clause 6.6.2 IS 2911

For X direction

Max. Reinforcement at top = 9041mm^2= 28no. 20mm dia

Max. reinforcement at bottom = 4038mm^2 = 13nos 20mm dia

For Y direction

For top max reinforcement = 3831mm^2 = 12 nos. 20mm dia

Max reinforcement at bottom = 4398mm^2 = 14nos. 20mm dia

  • Define materials

  • Define soil bearing
  • Define pile cap
  • Define load
  • Draw the designated pile cap, columns

  • Draw the design strips

  • Start the analysis

After which we have done this project

RESULT

Design and analyze a hostel building situated in Guwahati using ETABS and SAFE is done
