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

LOAD CALCULATIONS :

Dimensions of GROUND FLOOR PLAN :

Living room - 5m x 5m

dining room - 4.3m x 4.3m

Bed room - 6m x 4.3m

Kitchen - 4m x 3.8m

Toilet - 3m x 2m

Pooja room - 4m x 1.5m

courtyard - 4m x 3.5m

Driver room - 2.4m x 1.5m

Driver toilet - 1.8m x 1.5m.

Dimensions of FIRST FLOOR PLAN :

Bedroom 1 - 5m x 6m

Bedroom 2 - 6m x 4.5m

Toilet 1 - 2m x 2m

Toilet 2 - 4.5m x 2m

Store room - 3.5 x 3m

Terrace - 60.18 m^2.

Other dimensions:

Thickness of external/inetrnal wall - 0.20m

Thickness of slab - 0.25m

Dimensions of column - 0.3m x 0.3m

Dimensions of beam - 0.3m x 0.45m

Ht of wall GROUND FLOOR - 4m

Ht of wall FIRST FLOOR - 4m

1.Dead load calculation :

Dimension of column = 0.3 x 0.3

Ht of column = ( 0.25 x 2 ) + 4 + 4 = 8.5m

Total volume of one column = 0.3 x 0.3 x 8.5 = 0.76 m^3

Unit wt of RCC = 25KN/m^3 ( IS 875 : Part 1)

Dead load of one column = volume of one column x unit wt of RCC

= 0.76 X 25

= 19 KN.

2.Dead load of beams :

Dimensions of beam = 0.3 x 0.45m

Total volume of beam per unit metre length = 0.3 x 0.45 m x 1m

= 0.135 m^3

Unit wt of RCC = 25KN/m^3

Dead load of beam per unit meter length = 25 x 0.135

= 3.375 KN

3.Dead load of slabs :

Thickness of slab = 0.25m

Unit wt of RCC = 25KN/m^3

Total volume of slab per sq.m = 1mx1mx0.25m

= 0.25m^3

Dead load of slab per sq.m = 0.25x25

= 6.25 KN

4.DEAD LOAD OF WALLS :

Thickness of wall = 0.20m

Unit wt of block masonry = 20KN/m^3( IS 875 : PART 1)

Ht of GROUND FLOOR wall = 4m

Dead load of G.F wall per unit m length = Volume of wall per m length x unit wt of block masonry

= 4x0.20x1x20

= 18.4KN

Ht of FIRST FLOOR wall = 4m

Dead load of F.F wall per unit m length = Volume of wall per m length x unit wt of block masonry

= 4x0.20x1x20

= 18.4KN.

Total wt of both ground and first floor walls per unit m length = 18.4+18.4= 36.8 KN.

LIVE LOAD CALCULATION:

(As per IS 875 PART 2)

Living room - 2 KN/m^2

dining room - 2 KN/m^2

Bed room - 2 KN/m^2

Kitchen - 2 KN/m^2

Toilet - 2 KN/m^2

Store room - 2 KN/m^2

Terrace - 3 KN/m^2

Staircase - 3 KN/m^2.

WIND LOAD CALCULATION :

The ht of the building is 8.5 m which is < 10m.so wind load is not considered.

Structural drawing required :

1. Centre lline drawing

2. Footing and column layout with reinforcement details

3. Column schedule with reinforcement details

4. Plinth beam layout with reinforcement details

5. Each floor beam layout with reinforcement details

6. Lift pit and head room with reinforcement details.

REFERENCE AND IS CODES :

* IS 875:1987 (PART 1) for dead load

* IS 875:1987 (PART 2) for live load

* IS 875:1987 (PART 3) for wind load

* IS 456:2000 for Reinforcement concrete.
