Challenge

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

Height = 3m , Wall Size = 230 * 230 mm , Unit weight of Brick Masonry = 20 Kn/m3

Beam = 300 * 300 mm , Column = 400 * 400 mm , Slab = 150 mm , Density of Concrete = 25 Kg/m3

  • Self weight of Wall = 0.23*3*1*20 = 13.8 KN
  • Self Weight of Beam = 0.3 * 0.3 * 3 * 25 = 6.75 KN
  • Self weight of Column = 0.4 * 0.4 * 3 * 25 = 12 KN
  • Self weight of slab = 1* 1 * 0.15 * 25 = 3.75 KN

Dead Load of the individual members = 13.8+6.75+12+3.75 = 36.3 KN

Live load for residential building = 2KN/m2
