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

Aim of the project-

To sketch a G+1 floor residential plan according to vastu Shastra and to list down the names of structural drawings required to be provided to the site for construction.

To assume the size of structural elements (Column, Beam, slab etc) and to calculate the loads from the members as per IS code.

GROUND FLOOR:

Dimensions of ground floor plan

Living room- 6m x 6.5m

Kitchen room- 3.5m x 4.8m

Pooja room- 2m X 1.5m

Master bedroom- 4.2m X 4.8m

Master bedroom- 3.5m X 4.8m

Toilet- 2m X 1.5m

Toilet- 2m X 1.5m

FIRST FLOOR :

Dimensions of first floor plan

Living room- 6m x 6.5m

Master bedroom- 4.2m X 4.8m

Master bedroom- 3.5m X 4.8m

Toilet- 2m X 1.5m

Toilet- 2m X 1.5m

Study room - 3.5m X 4.8m

Other dimensions

-Thickness of internal wall- 0.15m (150mm)

-Thickness of external wall- 0.23m (230mm)

-Thickness of slab- 0.25m (250mm)

-Dimensions of column – 0.3m X 0.3m

-Dimensions of beam-0.3m X 0.45m

-Height of the wall of each floor- 3m

The Drawings to be submitted for above plan,

1. Architectural Drawings - Centre line, Site plan, Working Plan, Section Plan, Elevation Drawing
2. Structural Drawings - Excavation Drawing, Column Layout, Plinth beam Layout, Roof Beam & Shuttering Layout, Roof Slab Layout, (Footing, PB, Beam & Slab reinforcement) Drawing.
3. Electrical Drawings
4. Plumbing Drawings

Calculation of loads-

(A). Dead load Calculations

1. Dead load of columns-

Dimension of column= 0.3m X 0.3m (300mm X 300mm)

Height of column= (Slab thickness X 2) + (Height of wall for each floor X 2)

= (0.25 X 2) + (3 X 2) = 6.5m

Total volume of concrete = 0.3 X 0.3 X 6.5 = 0.585m3.

Unit weight of RCC= 25KN/m3.

Unit Weight of Building Materials used in construction works as per IS 875 (Part-1)

Dead load of column= 25 X 0.585=14.62KN.

2. Dead load of beams-

Dimension of beam= 0.3m X 0.45m (300mm X 450mm)

Total volume of concrete = 0.3 X 0.45 X 1 = 0.135m3.

Unit weight of RCC= 25KN/m3.

Unit Weight of Building Materials used in construction works as per IS 875 (Part-1)

Dead load of beam= 25 X 0.135=3.375KN

3. Dead load of slab-

Slab is always designed for the span of 1m.

Hence assume size of slab as 1m X 1m.

Thickness of slab= 0.25m

Density of RCC= 25KN/m3.

Self-weight of slab= 1 X 1 X 0.25 X 25= 6.25KN.

4. Dead load of walls

-Dead load of external wall

Thickness of External wall = 0.23m. (230mm)

Unit weight of brick wall= 20KN/m3

Unit Weight of Building Materials used in construction works as per IS 875 (Part-1)

Height of wall = 3m.

Load of wall on beam= 3 X 0.23 X 20= 13.8KN.

-Dead load of internal wall

Thickness of Internal wall = 0.15m. (150mm)

Unit weight of brick wall= 20KN/m3

Unit Weight of Building Materials used in construction works as per IS 875 (Part-1)

Height of wall = 3m.

Load of wall on beam= 3 X 0.15 X 20= 9KN.

(B). Live load calculations-

(According to IS 875 Part 2)

Bed room= 2KN/m²

Living room= 2KN/m²

Toilet= 2KN/m²

Staircase= 3KN/m²

Study room= 2KN/m²

Kitchen= 2KN/m²

(C). Wind load calculation-

Wind load is designed only when the height of the building exceeds 10m.

The height of designed building is 6.5m which is less than 10m.
