Reinforcement Detailing of Beams from ETABS output

aim

Detailed design of concrete buildings -1


Detail design of beams in Etabs 2018.
The ETABS file for a G+4 building is provided. Run the analysis and design the RCC Moment ResistingFrame. The following challenge deals specifically with two continuous beams in the 1st floor.

1) 3 span continuous beam along grid A
2) 7 span continuous beam along grid 3

Address the following issues thereafter.
• Provide details of longitudinal and shear reinforcement for the two continuous beams. Sketch the beam elevation details or draft it using autocad software. A sample of how beam elevation details is prepared in consultancy firms is provided below. Participants can prepare it as per their preference:

Provide reasons for failure of the middle span along grid A. What are the possible ways this issue can be resolved?


• Calculate value of the maximum shear force in any one of the spans in both the continuous beams, as per clause 6.3.3 (b) in IS 13920 – 2016. Also, confirm these values from shear force demand calculated by ETABS.Please note that if longitudinal reinforcement provided is more than required

preocedure

  • We are going to review the supplied input.
  • Input was already developed structural model of a G+4 building.
  • So the supplied input was openend using the Etabs applicatio.
  • And the model was reviewd.
  • And as said the model was set to run the analysis.
  • Thus run analysis is shown below
  • in plan view select the first floor plan and apply it
  • select at grid 3 and click it
  • next step and run analyse
  • select concrete frame design and click it
  • select the display design info
    • And as said in the question we have taken said beams in consideration.
    • The considered beams are shown below

    Longitudinal reinforcement of the beam for Grid A

  • Longitudinal reinforcement of the beam for Grid 3
  • Shear Reinforcement of beam for Grid 3
  • shear reinforcement at grid a
  • The obtained are the information of said beams.
  • After this we are seeing the mid sapn failure of the beam in grid A.
  • Here O/S means overstressed
  • The stress has increased beyond the allowable value thats why it impossible to calculate here
  • Shear stress in load/area, We have to reduce the loading or increase the loading are the available suggestions as asked
  • Shear capacity of the concrete, it varies according to the grade of concrete
  • Instead of using M25 grade if used higher grade for this beam alone we can make the beam pass in the shear stress.
    • For the calculation of maximum shear force .
    • we are refering IS456-2002 clause 40.4
    • And the formula is

    Vus = (0.87fyAsvd)/Sv mm2

    Where

    fy = 415N/mm2

    Asv = 151mm2

    d= 450mm

    Sv = 100mm

  • As per the observations from the drawing and IS Code

    And

    Vus = 245KN

  • load combination
  • next sway connection of shear and beam connection
  • sway shear right mbh =234kn
  • mas=174kn mbs=155knm
  • mbh= 293kn Lab =4.725kn
  • Lab=4.725kn ld+1 =70kn
  • vua=46kn vuu= 185kn
  • vub= 230kn
  • sway shear of the diagram
    • Result:
    • The model was inserted.
    • resolution was given.
