Challenge

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

Slab = (600 x 600)

Beam = (300 x 600)

Column = (500 x 500)

Thickness of slab = 125mm

Height of wall = 4.5m

Thickness of wall = 230mm

Self weight of slab = unit weight of concrete x volume of slab

= 25KN/m^3 x (0.6m x 0.6m x 0.12m)

Self weight of slab = 1.08KN

Self weight of beam = unit weight of concrete x volume of beam

= 25KN/m^3 x (0.3m x 0.6m x 20m)

Self weight of beam = 90KN

Self weight of column = unit weight of concrete x volume of column

= 25KN/m^3 x (0.5m x 0.5m x 10m)

Self weight of column = 62.5KN

Self weight of wall = unit weight of concrete x volume of wall

= 20KN/m^2 x (4.5m x 0.23m)

Self weight of wall = 20.7KN

Dead load = 1.08 + 90 +62.5 + 20.7

= 174.2KN

Live load = 174.2KN + 2KN/m^2

= 176.2KN/m^2

Wind load = Pz = 0.6 Vz^2

Vz = Vb x K1 x K2 x K3 x K4

Vb = 50m/s

K1 =1.0m/s

K2 = 1.05m/s

K3 =1.36m/s

K4 =1.0m/s

Pz = 0.6 x (50 x 1.0 x 1.05 x 1.36 x 1.0)^2

= 0.6 x 5102.24

Pz = 3.06KN/s
