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

1A. G+1 Residential plan, according to vastu shastra.

Assumeing the size of the structural elements (column, Beam, Slab, etc.,) and accordingly calculating the individual corresponding loads form the members as per IS code.

Structural Element Size (mm) Load per unit area (KN/m²) individual corresponding load (KN)
Column 300 × 300 25 2250
Beam 200 × 300 15 900
Slab 100 × 100 5 50

Assumptions:

  • Column spacing = 6 m
  • Beam span = 4 m
  • Slab thickness = 150 mm

Calculations:

  • Column load = 25 × 300 × 300 = 2250 KN
  • Beam load = 15 × 200 × 300 = 900 KN
  • Slab load = 5 × 6 × 4 = 120 KN

The individual corresponding loads are the loads that would be transferred from the structural members to the supporting members.
