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

G+1 floor residential plan, according to Vaastu Shastra

list down the names of the structural drawings required to be provided to the site for construction -

  • Centre line drawing -
  • Footing and Column layout with reinforcement details -
  • Column Schedule with reinforcement details -
  • Plinth beam layout with reinforcement details -
  • First floor beam and slab layout with reinforcement details -
  • Headroom reinforcement details -

Load calculations

Assume,

size of beam - 230 X 450

size of coumn - 300 X 400

Thickness of slab - 125mm

Thickness of wall 230mm(brickwork)

LIVING ROOM - 6 X 4m

KITCHEN + DINNING - 4 X 5m

GUEST ROOM / STUDY ROOM - 4 X 4.5m

MASTER BEDRROM / BEDROOM - 4 X 5.5m

STAIRCASE - 4 X 2m

BATH AND WC - 2.3 X 2m

PASSAGE - 3.3 X 1.5m

floor to floor height - 3 m

  • Dead load calculations -

1.self weight of column = (3 X 0.3 X 0.4 X 25) = 9 KN

2.Self weight of slab =

living room = 6 X 4 X 0.125 X 25 = 75 KN

Kitchen + dinning room = 4 X 5 X 0.125 X 25 = 62.5 KN

Bed room/ master bedroom = 4 X 5.5 X 0.125 X 25 = 68.75 KN

Bath and wc - 2 (2.3 X 2 X 0.125 X 25) = 28.75 KN

Passage = 3.3 X 1.5 X 0.125 X 25 = 15.46 KN

Study room / guest room = 4 X 4.5 X 0.125 X 25 = 56.25 KN

3.Self weight of beam = 0.23 x 0.45 x 25 = 2.58kN/m

4.Self weight of wall = 0.230 X 3 X 20 = 13.8 KN/m

  • live load calculations -

For all rooms and kitchen = 2 kn/m^2

for passage = 3 kn/m^2

  • Wind load calculation -

Design wind pressure on building -

Pz = 0.6 Vz^2

to calculate Vz,

Vz = Vb x k1 x k2 x k3 x k4

now,

Vb = 39 m/s (considering pune region)

k1 = 1 (cl. 6.3.1 IS 875 part 3 ) for general building

k2 = 1 (cl. 6.3.2.2)

k3 = 1 (cl.6.3.3.1)

k4 = 1 (cl 6.3.4) for other structures

Vz = 39 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 39 m/s

Pz = 0.6 x 39^2 = 912.6 N/m^2
