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

1)

• Aim: aim of the project is to draw G+1 floor plan
• Procedure: Taking the floor plan 34*27 feet and considering the column dimensions as 350*350mm, beam dimensions as 400*500mm, slab thickness 125mm and height of the floor is 3.6m.

Loads acting on the plan:

Self-weight:

• Column:

volume of column=0.35*0.35*3.6=0.441m³

unit weight of concrete=25KN/m³

self-weight of column=0.441*25=11.025KN

• Beam:

Area of beam =0.4*0.5=0.2m²

Unit weight of concrete=25KN/m³

Self-weight of beam=0.2*25=5KN/m

• Slab:

Thickness of slab=0.125m

Unit weight of concrete=25KN/m³

Self-weight of slab=0.125*25=3.125KN/m²

• Load bearing walls:

Dimensions of wall=3.6m*0.23m

Unit weight of masonry=20KN/m³

Self-weight of wall=3.6*0.23*20=16.56KN/m

• Partition wall:

Dimensions=3.6m*0.12m

Self-weight of wall=3.6*0.12*20=8.64KN/m

• Parapet wall:

Dimensions=0.9m*0.23m

Self-weight of wall=0.9*0.23*20=0.186KN/m

• Floor finish weight:

Considering finishing thickness should be 10mm

Self-weight of floor finish=0.01*20=0.2KN/m²

• Staircase weight:

Considering,

rise=150mm

thread= 250mm

and thickness waist slab 150mm

for residential staircase the constant value of weight is 10.39KN/m²

live load:

Live load is taken as 10KN/m² for whole structure

Wind load:

Wind load is not considered up to 10meter height

Some of the drawings need to be provided at the site for construction:

There are some of the documents are column marking plan, plan of project, structural and steel drawing documents, etc. need to be provided.

• Conclusion:

The above plan is drawn and the dead load, live load and wind load are calculated as per the vastu shastra and code references.
