Challenge

Sketch a G+1 residential plan according to Vaastu Shastra and Calculation of Loads as per IS code

Important structural drawings are:

  • centre line diagram
  • Footing and cloumn layout wih reinforecement details
  • column schdule with reinforcement details
  • plinth beam layout with reinforcement details
  • first floor beam layout with reinforcement details
  • first floor slab layout with reinforcement details
  • lift pit and head room reinforcement details

Dead load for the structural elements columns beams and slabs are

dead load of cloumn are

dimensions of all columns are 500mm*500mm

then unit weight of Rcc structure is 25KN/m2

then unit weight of column C1= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

unit weight of column C2= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

unit weight of column C3= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

unit weight of column C4= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

unit weight of column C5= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

unit weight of column C6= 0.5*0.5*3 = 0.75

= 0.75* 25= 18.75 KN

dead load of beams are

dimensions of all beams are 200mm*500mm

then unit weight of Rcc structure is 25KN/m2

then unit weight of beam B1= 0.2*0.5*0.2 = 0.02

= 0.02* 25= 0.5 KN

unit weight of beam B2= 0.2*0.5*0.2 = 0.02

= 0.02* 25= 0.5 KN

unit weight of beam B3= 0.2*0.5*0.2 = 0.02

= 0.02* 25= 0.5 KN

unit weight of beam B4= 0.2*0.5*0.2 = 0.02

= 0.02* 25= 0.5 KN

unit weight of beam B5= 0.2*0.5*0.2 = 0.02

= 0.02* 25= 0.5 KN

dead load of slab is = unit weight of slab * thickness

= 25* 0.27= 6.27 KN

Live load of the structure to be considerd as per IS code are:

  • Live load acting on the kitchen is 2.0 KN/m2
  • Live load acting on the bedroom is 2.0 KN/m2
  • Live load acting on the bathroom is 2.0 KN/m2
  • Live load acting on the hall and dining room is 2.0 KN/m2
  • Live load acting on the corredor is 3.0 KN/m2

As per IS code the wind load is not considered for the building structure having height less than 10m.
