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

All dimensions in meters.

Some of the structural drawings required for construction are

  • centre line
  • footing and column layout
  • beam layout
  • plinth beam layout
  • lift pit and headroom layout
  • reinforcement details for all concrete elements
  • slab layout and details, etc,..

As per IS codes following are some of the loading consideration.

1. column 250X450
DL of individual column= 0.25x0.45X3X25
= 8.4375kN

2.wall of 230mm thickness

DL of wall per m length= 0.23x 3x20

= 13.8kN/m

3. slab of 150mm thickness= 0.15*25
(per m^2) = 3.75kN/m^2

4. LL for all rooms and kitchen = 2kN(from IS 875 part 2)

5. LL for staircase =3 kN(from IS 875 part 2)

6.LL for Balconies =3 kN(from IS 875 part 2)
