Sketch a G+1 residential plan according to Vaastu Shastra and Calculation of Loads as per IS code
Sketch a G+1 floor residential plan, according to Vaastu Shastra, and list down the names of the structural drawings required to be provided to the site for construction.
Also, assume the sizes of the structural elements (Column, Beam, Slab, etc.,) and accordingly calculate the individual corresponding loads from the members as per IS code.
A.
As Per IS 875:1987 (Part-I) For Practise of Dead Load ; Revised in 2018

Calculation of loads on Ground floor-
1) calculation of Dead load-
i) Dead load of colimns-
a) Size of all column = 300 x 300 mm
b) Dead load of column = 0.3 x 0.3 x 3 x 25 kN/m3
= 6.975 kN
-Dead load of one column= 6.975 kN
Total dead load of column on ground floor-
= Dead load of one column x No.of column
= 6.975 x 11
= 76.725 kN
ii)Dead load of Beam-
a) Dead Load of B1 of Length 6.55m = 0.23 x 0.75 x 6.55 x 25
= 28.25 kN
No. of B1 of Length 6.55m = 1 x 28.25
= 28.25 kN.
b) Dead load of B1 of Length 4.85m = 0.23 x 0.75 x 4.85 x 25
= 20.91 kN
No. of B1 of 4.85m Length = 20.91 x 2
= 41.83 kN
c) Dead Load of B2 of Length 3.5m = 0.15 x 0.75 x 3.5 x 25
= 9.84 kN
No. of B2 of Length 3.5m = 2 x 9.84
= 19.69 kN
d) Dead Load of B2 of Length 3.4m = 0.15 x 0.75 x 3.4 x 25
= 9.56 kN
No. of B2 of Length 3.4m = 9.56 x 1
= 9.56 kN
e) Dead Load of B2 of Length 3.2m = 0.15 x 0.75 x 3.2 x 25
= 9 kN
No. Of B2 of Length 3.2m = 1 x 9
= 9 kN
f) Dead Load of Beam B3 of 3.2m Length = 0.15 x 0.6 x 3.2 x 25
= 7.2 kN
No. of Beam B2 of Length 3.2m = 7.2 x 3
= 21.6 kN
g) Dead Load of Beam B3 of Length 3.5m = 0.15 x 0.6 x 3.5 x 25
= 7.875 kN
No. of Beam B3 of Length 3.5m = 7.875 x 2
= 15.75 kN
h) Dead Load of Beam B3 of 4.5m Length = 4.5 x 0.15 x 0.6 x 25
= 10.125 kN
No. of Beam B3 of Length 4.5m = 1 x 10.125
= 10.125 kN
i) Dead Load of Beam B4 of Length 4.85m = 0.23 x 0.6 x 4.85 x 25
= 16.73 kN
No. of Beam B4 of Length 4.85m = 1 x 16.73
= 16.73 kN
j) Dead Load of Beam B5 of Length 2.2m = 0.15 x 0.3 x 2.2 x 25
= 2.475 kN
No. of Beam B5 of Length 2.2 m = 1 x 2.475
= 2.475 kN
Total Dead Load of Beam on Ground Floor:
= a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j
= 172 kN
Total Deal load on Ground Floor:
= Dead Load of Column + Dead Load of Beam
= 76.725 + 172
= 248.725 kN
The same Bems and Columns are on First floor so the Dead load on First Floor is Also 248.725 kN.
As per IS 875:1987 , (Part-II) For Practise of Live Load ; Revised 2008
Live load on Bunglow is Calculated as follows:
1) Live Load in Rooms & Kitchen= 2.0 kN/m2
2) Live Load in Toilets & BAthrooms = 0 kN/m2
3) Stairs & Passage = 3.0 kN/m2
4) Balconies = 3.0 kN/m2
5) Terrace (Access Provided) = 1.5 kN/m2
6) Terrace (Access not provided except for maintenance) = 0.75 kN/m2
7) Store = 0 kN/m2
Reduction of Live Load on basis of its storey based on IS Code:
No. of Floor (Including Roof) Percentage Reduction in Total Live Load
1 0
2 10
3 20
4 30
5 to 10 40
above 10 50
