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

AIM :

Sketching a G+1 floor residential plan.

PROCEDURE :

Residential plan :

Structural drawings required to be provided for the construction :

Center line drawing

Footing and column layout with reinforcement details

Column schedule with reinforcement details

Plinth beam layout with reinforcement details

First floor beam layout with reinforcement details

First floor slab layout with reinforcement details

Lift pit and head room reinforcement details

CALCULATION OF LOADS :

Assuming the sizes of the loads is as follows

FOR COLUMN

Height = 3m

Size of the column = 0.4*0.4

Unit weight of the column = 25 KN/m^3

Dead load of the column = 25*0.4*0.4*3 = 12KN

FOR BEAM

Size of the beam = 200 *500

Dead load of the beam = 0.2*0.5*1*25 = 2.5 KN

FOR SLAB

Size = 4m*4m

Thickness = 250mm

Dead load of the slab = 4*4*0.25 = 100KN

THE MINIMUM LIVE LOAD FOR THE BULDINGS IS TAKEN AS 2KN/m^2

RESULT :

Hence the dead and live loads are calculated by assuming the values
