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

AIM:

1. To sketch G+1 Residential plan according to Vaastu Shastra

2. Calculation of loads as per IS Codes

INRODUCTION:

Size of the site = 10m x 15m

Area of the site = 150 sq.m

Built up area = 80.5 sq.m

Facing = North facing

Type of Building = Residential building

Number of floors = 2 floors (Ground floor and First floor)

Floor height = 3m

Building properties = 1 living room, 2 bedrooms, an open kitchen and dining hall, 1 common bathroom and 1 common toilet in Ground floor. 1 master bedroom, 1 guest room and terrace/garden/sit out in second floor.

Sizes of the rooms:

Living room = 3400mm x 4650mm

Ground floor bed rooms: 1= 3000mm x 3900mm

2= 2400mm x 3200mm

Master bedroom in 1st floor = 5050mm x 3000mm

Guest room in 1st floor = 3600mm x 3600mm

PROCEDURE:

Using the drawing tools like line command, rectangular command, rooms can be drawn easily with the help of measurements.

Different layers can be prepared to represent the different types of building components.

Directions must be mentioned correctly.

Set back should be provided properly as per by-laws.

Names of different room must be mentioned with the help of Text command.

Properties of the text can be changed accordingly.

LOAD CALCULATIONS:

1. Column load

Considering the column size of 225mm x 375m x 6000mm

Dead load = Volume x unit weight

= (0.225 x 0.375 x 6) x 25

= 12.66 kN

2. Beam load

Considering the c/s of beam as 225mmx 375mm

Dead load = Area of c/s x unit weight

= 0.225 x 0.375 x 25

= 2.11 kN/m

3. Wall load for 225mm wall

Floor height = 3m

Wall load = wall thickness x height of wall x unit weight

= 0.225 x 3 x 19

= 12.83 kN/m

4. Wall load for 150mm wall

Floor height = 3m

Wall load = wall thickness x height of wall x unit weight

= 0.150 x 3 x 19

= 8.55 kN/m

5. Parapet wall load of 225mm thickness

Height = 1m

Parapet wall load = wall thickness x height of wall x unit weight

= 0.225 x 1 x 19

= 4.28 kN/m

6. Slab load

Considering thickness 125mm

Dead load = thickness x unit weight

= 0.125 x 25

= 3.125 kN/sq.m

Live load as per IS 875 part 2

For roof slab = 4kN/sq.m

For other slabs = 3kN/sq.
