sketching the G+1 floor residential plan satisfing the vaastu shastra and calulating the load acting on the building with giving the information of the required drawings.
answer:
Ground floor First floor Opening is provided above the ground level for the aesthetic look All doors are inwards Here i. Main door is facing the north direction ii. Toilets are not placed near the kitchen iii. Dining area is near to kitchen far from main door iv. Bedrooms are placed in southwest and south east where north east is avoided v. All rooms are rectangle in shape vi. Centre house is kept empty vii. Kitchen is placed in south east direction viii. Toilet is in north west ix. Livingroom is in north west x. No overhanging beams are allowed to rooms xi. Pooja room is placed at east
Required drawings
I. centre line drawing II. footing and column layout with reinforcement details III. column schedule with reinforcement details IV. plinth beam layout with reinforcement details V. first floor beam layout with reinforcement details VI. first floor slab layout with reinforcement details VII. lift pit and headroom reinforcement details
Load calculations
Specify the assumed size of the rooms. - All columns are 300mm x 300mm - All beams are 300mm x 450mm - Slab thickness if 125mm - The height of the wall is 3m
• Dead loads
A. Column the height of the column as 3 m Dead load of the column of size 0.3*0.3*3 Total volume of the column = 0.3*0.3*3 = 0.27 m^3 Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3 Dead load of column = unit weight of concrete * volume of concrete = 25 KN/m^3 * 0.27m^3 = 6.75 KN
B. Beams Total C/S area of the BEAM = 0.3*0.45 = 0.135m^2 Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3 Dead load of column = unit weight of concrete * area of concrete = 25 KN/m^3 * 0.135m^2 = 3.375 KN/m
C. Slabs Dead load of a slab of 125mm thickness Unit weight of concrete = 25KN/m^3 self-weight of the slab = unit weight of concrete * thickness of concrete = 25 KN/m^3 * 0.125m = 3.125 KN/m^2
D. walls Height of wall 3m Dead load of a wall of 300mm thickness Unit weight of brick wall = 20KN/m^3 self-weight of the wall = unit weight of brick wall * thickness of wall*height of wall = 20 KN/m^3 * 0.3m * 3m = 18 KN/m
• Live loads
• According to the IS875 (part2) table 1 For the residential buildings use the live load of the UDL 2KN/m^2 For this rooms and bathrooms and no balconies are present in the building. And near staircase provide the live load on UDL 3KN/m^2 Here since it is the house the live load of the 2KN/m^2 is adopted on the slabs from IS 875-part 2 Table 1
• Wind load calculations
since, height of the building is less than 10 m wind load calulation is not implemented on the building
