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

Drawings required to be provided to the site for construction:-

  1. Centre line drawing.
  2. Plan
  3. Beam, column & Slab reinforcement details.

Calculation of loads:-

Assumed sizes of column,beam and slab are:

Column size is 500mm*500mm

Beam size is 300mm*600mm

Slab thickness 150mm.

Calculations of loads per m^3

Column load calculation:

Self weigth=volume of column*unit weigth of RCC

=(L*B*H)*25kg/m3

=(0.5*0.5*1)*25

=6.25kg/m3

Self weigth of column is=6.25kg/m3.

Beam load calculation:

Beam size=(300*600)

Self weigth=volume of beam*unit weigth of RCC

=(L*B*H)*25kg/m3

=(0.3*0.6*1)*25

=4.5kg/m3

Self weigth of beam is=4.5kg/m3.

Slab load calculation:

Slab size=(1000*1000*150)mm

Self weigth=volume of slab*unit weigth of RCC

=(L*B*H)*25kg/m3

=(1*1*0.15)*25

=3.75kg/m3

Self weigth of slab is=3.75kg/m3.
