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

• Dimension of First floor plan

1. Bedroom:4 X 3.5
2. Toilet : 3.5 X 2.5
3. Study room : 3 X 3.3
4. Terrace : 13.69 X 4
5. Bed room : 4.5 X 4

• Dimenaion of ground floor plan

1. Bed room : 4.5 X 4
2. Dining : 4.5 X 3.5
3. Parking: 6.23 X 3.5
4. Pooja room : 2.8 X 3.5
5. Store room : 3.5 X 2.8
6. Wash room : 2.5 X 3.5
7. Guest room : 4.2 X 3.3
8. Drawing room : 4.76 X 3.5

• Other dimensions

1. Thickness of external/internal wall: 0.23mm
2. Thickness of slab:0.25mm
3. DImension of column:0.3 X 0.3
4. Height of wall of ground floor:4m
5. Height of wall of first floor

• Calculation of dead column
• DL of column

1. Height of column = ( slab thickness*2)+ height of wall for ground floor +height of wall fpor first floor

=0.25*2+4+3.5

= 0.72

• Unit weight of rcc = 25 Kn/m3
• Dl of one column=0.72*25
• =18KN

• Dl of beams
• Volume of beam =0.3*0.45*1

=0.135

• Unit wt of rcc=25Kn/m
• Dl of beam =25 X 0.135
• =3.375KN

• Dl of slabs

1. Thickness of slab=0.25
2. Unit wt of rcc=25KN/m2
3. Total volume of slab=1*1*0.25

=0.25

• Dl of slab=0.25*25

=6.25KN

• Dead load of wall

1. Thickness of external/internal wall=0.23
2. Unit wt ofbrick masonary=20KN/m3
3. height of ground floor plan=4m
4. DL of ground floor wall =Volume of wall per meter length*unit wt of brick masonary

=4*0.23*1*20

=18.4kN

• Height offirst floor wall=3.5m
• Dl of first floor wall per unit meter length=volume of wall per meter length*unit wt of brick masonary

=3.5*0.23*1*20

=16.1KN

• Total weight of ground floor and first floor wall per unit meter legth=34.45KN

• Live load calculation

AS per IS 875 part 2 for residential building live load are taken as

• Living and dining=2KN/m2
• Kitchen =2KN/m2
• Bed room =2KN/m2
• Wash room =2KN/m2
• Toilet =2Kn/m2
• Store room =2Kn/m2
• Terrace =3KN/m2
• Stair case =3Kn/m2

• Wind load calculation
• If the height of building is more than 10m then building needs to be designed for wind load
• But in this case , Height of building is 8m thus, wind load need not be considered

• The names of structural drawings required to be preapared to the site for construction are

1. Centre line drawing
2. Footing and column layout with reinforcement details
3. Column schedule with reinforcement details
4. Plinth beam layout with reinforcement detail
5. Each floor beam layout with reinforcement details
6. Lift pit abd head room with reinforcement details
7. Floor plan
8. Foundation plan
9. Roof slab layout Column layout
10. Column sections
11. Septic tank details
12. Overhead water tank details
13. Furniture plan
14. Road drainage plan
15. Setting out plan
16. section drawings of building
17. plumbing details
18. Electrification details
