Sketch a G+1 residential plan according to Vaastu Shastra and Calculation of Loads as per IS code
aim:
to sketch a G+1 floor residential plan according to vastu sharthra and to list down the names of structural drawins required to be provided to the construction.
to assume the size of structural elaments(column.beam,slab et)and to calaulate the loads from the members as per IS code.
ground floor plan:
dimensions are in meters

dimensions of ground floor:
living room-3.60m*5.85m
kitchen room-3.60m*3m
dining room-3m*3m
master bedroom-4.3m*3m
bedroom-3m*4.5m
toilet-3,25m*1.2m
bath-2.4m*1.2m
WC-1.2m*1m
first floor plan:

dimensions of first floor:
guest room-4.3m*3m
study room-3m*3m
bedroom-3m*4.5m
toilet-3.25m*1.2m
bath-2.4m*1.2m
WC-1.2m*1m
other dimensions
thickness of internal wall-0.15m
thickness of external wall-0.23m
thickness of slab-0.25m
dimensions of column-0.3m*0.3m
dimensions of beam-0.3m*0.45m
height of the wallof each floor-3m
vastu shastra followed during planning:
*entrance of the house is provided in the east direction which is the symbol of progress in life
*livingb room is placed in north east direction
*living room is placed in north east direction
*master bedroom is placed in south west position this direction brings good health and prosperilty.
*kitchen is placed in south east direction
*study room is placed in east direction
*staircase is placed at northwest corner
*bathroom,WC and toilet is placed in west direction

calculation of loads:
dead load clculations
dead load of columns:
dimension of column=0.3m*0.3m
height of column=(slab thickness*2)+(height of wall for each floor*2)
=(0.25*2)+(3*2)=6.5m
total volume of concrete=0.3*0.3*6.5=0.585m^3
unit weight of RCC=25 KN/m^3
as per IS 875
dead load of column=25*0.585=14.62KN
dead load of beams:
dimension of beam=03m*0.45m
total volume of concrete=0.3*0.45*1=0.135m^3
unit weight of RCC=25KN/m^3
as per IS 875
dead load of beam-25*0.135=3.375KN
dead load of slab:
slab is always designed for the span of 1m
assume size of slab as 1m*1m
thickness of slab=0.25m
density of RCC=25KN/m^3
self-weight of slab=1*1*0.25*25=6.25KN
dead load of the wall:
thickness of external wall=0.23m
unit weight of brick wall=20KN/m^3
as per IS 875
height of wall=3m
load of wall on beam=3*0.23*20=13.8KN
dead load of internal wall
thickness of internal wall=0.15m
unit weight of brick wall=20KN
as per IS 875
height of wall=3m
load of wall on beam=3*0.15*20=9KN
live load calculation:
bed room=2KN/m^3
living room=2KN/m^3
bath=2KN/m^3
terrace=3KN/m^3
toilet=2KN/m^3
staircase=3KN/m^3
study room=2KN/m^3
kitchen=2KN/m^3
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 lees than 10m
so,the calculation of wind load is not required.
references and IS codes used for the design
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 456:200, for reinforced concrete
result:
the plan is prepared by the vaastu shastre concept considering all the principles and considerations of vaastu shastra
the load calculations are done as per the IS code considerations
