- LOAD CALCULATIONS:
- Dead load:-
- As per IS-875 part 1
- For column:-
- Total volume of column=0.3*0.3*4.5=0.405m^3
- Unit weight of concrete=25kn/m3
- Total dead load of column=25*0.405=10.125kn
- For beam
- Total volume of beam=0.3*0.45*4.5=0.6075
- Unit weight of concrete=25kn/m3
- Total dead load of beam=25*0.6075=15.1875 kn
- for slab
- total volume of slab=1*1*0.125=0.125m3
- Unit weight of slab=25kn/m3
- Dead load of slab=25*0.125=3.125kn
- Wall loads
- height of the wall=4.5m
- Thickness of wall=250mm
- Unit weight of brick masonary=20kn/m3
- Total dead load=20*0.250*4.5=22.5kn/m
- Live load calculations:-
- As per IS 875-part2 table1;
- BEadroom=2kn/m2
- Living room=2kn/m2
- Kitchen=2kn/m2
- Toilets=2kn/m2
- terrace=3kn/m2
- Staircase=3kn/m2
- Wind load calculations
- Wind load calculations are to be done on buildings which have height greater than 10m but since our building height is only 4.5m so no need for that
- RESULT:-
- A G+1 floor residential plan according to Vaastu shastra has been drawn
- The names of structural drawings required for the site for construction is provided
- The individual corrresponding loads from the members as per IS code is calculated
