To calculate the dead , live and wind load for RC residential structure and to apply them using TSD

1.Aim:

To Calculate dead load in design report based on IS code and apply dead load on the model

Procedure:

  • Open EXCEL to do the calculation.
  • Enter the value as shown below.
  • Applying finishes:
  • Go to G.L and select the dead load from the drop down below and select load -> Area load
  • Give the value and loading as shown below.
  • Go to F.F and follow the same procedure.
  • Go to R.L and give the loading.
  • Applying member load:
  • Go to G.L and select load -> Full UDL
  • Enter the value of load in the property window and click the member as shown below.
  • Go to G.L and select load -> Full UDL
  • Enter the value of load in the property window and click the member as shown below.
  • Go to R.L and give the loading.
  • Create cantilever beam:
  • Go to FF and select concrete beam
  • Draw a beam -> double to get property-> releases -> select beam end as cantilever.
  • Copy the corner beams and connect the beams as shown below.
  • Create slab by slab on beam icon and click inside the beam area
  • Apply dead load as mentioned earlier.
  • Go to F.F, load -> line load

Results:

Hence the dead load is applied

2.Aim:

To Calculate live load in design report based on IS code and apply live load on the model

Procedure:

  • Refer IS 875 Part -2, Table- 1 for Live load
  • For roof,
  • Open EXCEL and enter the values.
  • Go to G.F and select load-> area load and give loading as per the calculation
  • Go to F.F and select load-> area load and give loading as per the calculation
  • On roof
  • Results:
  • Hence the live load is applied on every level

3.Aim:

To generate manual wind loading in the design report based IS code as per the following input

  • Basic wind speed = 50m/s
  • Terrain category 2

Procedure:

  • Open Excel sheet for calculation and open TSD file which created early to check dimension of the building.
  • Refer code IS 875 Part-3 2015 for,
  • For K1,
  • K2 factor is,
  • For k3,
  • For k4,
  • Internal pressure coefficient- 7.3.2.2
  • For external co-efficient, Refer Table 5
  • With the above reference, Enter the value in excel for calculation.
  • Roof:
  • Result:
  • Hence, the calculation is done by referring IS 875-2015 Part-3.

4.Aim:

To apply the loadings on the model by the above calculation.

Procedure:

  • Creating load case:
  • Go to load -> Load cases-> add
  • Validate the model:
  • Creating frames:
  • Go to model -> Frames
  • Select grids
  • Creating wind panel:
  • Go to FRM A 2D -> model -> wall panel -> pick corners of the columns
  • Similar create it on all 4 sides
  • Applying wind load: Wind +X +Cpi
  • Select the load case -> load -> area load and enter the loading on the property window by referring the wind load calculation and select the wall panel on wind ward side
  • Follow the same procedure on wee ward side
  • Follow the same procedure on face C
  • Follow the same procedure on face D
  • On roof:
  • Follow the same procedure but change the load case to Wind +X -Cpi
  • On roof:
  • Similarly for Wind +Y +Cpi
  • On roof
  • Similarly for Wind +Y -Cpi
  • On roof:
  • Result:
  • Hence the loads are applied as per the above calculation.
  • Validate the model
