Challenge

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

Aim: Load Calculations of G+1 buildings

List of drawings:

  1. Centre line:
  2. Footing and column layout with reinforcement details
  3. Column schedule with reinforcement details
  4. Plinth beamm layout with reinforcemt details
  5. First floor beam layout with reinforcement details
  6. First floor slab layout with reinforcement details
  7. Lift and Headroom reinforcement details

Load Calculations:

Assuming the dimensions of coulmns,beams,slab thickness and height of wall is same for every structure

- All columns are 300mm x 300mm
- All beams are 300mm x 450mm
- Slab thickness if 125mm
- The height of the wall is 4.5

self weight of column=0.3*0.3*4.5*25=1.0125 kN

Self weight of beam=0.3*0.45*25=3.375 kN/m

Self weight of slab=0.125*25=3.125 kN/m^2

Self weight of wall= 0.23*4.5*20=20.7 kN/m

Live load as per IS 875 part 2:

Kitchen= 2 kN/m^2

Living room= 2kN/m^2

Toilet and bathrooms= 2kN/m^2

Staircase= 3 kN/m^2

Store room= 3 kN/m^2

Terrace= 3 kN/m^2

Bed rooms: 2 kN/m^2

Since the height of building is 9m wind load shall not be considered.
