Challenge

To Design RC column and beam for RC residential structure using TSD

Aim:

To design RC column and beam based on the analysis.

Procedure:

  • Open the RCC TSD file which analyzed in the previous challenge.
  • Go to base level and check a column and reinforcement
  • Select a column -> right click ->interactive design -> Static.
  • Similarly check few more columns
  • Go to property set and change the size as 400x400
  • Select all the column and change the size
  • Now select each column -> right click ->interactive design -> Static.
  • Design the column to pass the required criteria.
  • All the columns are passed in the base.
  • Go to FRM C 2D
  • Select a column -> right click ->interactive design -> Static.
  • Click the stack 1 and change the reinforcement and size to design the column.
  • Click C 20-2 and do the required changes
  • Go to 3D view and uncheck all elements and member other than column
  • Go to manage property set and change the column size to 400x400 and assign it
  • Follow the same procedure for other columns.
  • All the columns are passed
  • Beams:
  • Go to ground floor run the analysis.
  • Select a beam -> right click -> interactive design ->static
  • Find the reason for failure.
  • Go to manage property set and change the beam property and apply it to the beams
  • Select the beams in the 1st floor -> right click -> apply property set
  • Select a beam -> interactive design -> Static
  • Check the reinforcement and size
  • Follow the same procedure to the other beams and do the changes.
  • All beams are passed in G.L
  • Go to first floor change the beam property
  • Apply the property to the beam by right click -> apply property set
  • Select a beam -> interactive design -> Static
  • Check the size and reinforcement
  • Click the Grid B beam which holds the cantilever and check it
  • Change the reinforcement
  • Check all other beams and do the changes in reinforcement.
  • Now beams in F.L are passed
  • Go to R.L
  • Apply the changed beam property to the roof beams to have uniformity and to pass
  • Check the reinforcement and do the changes
  • Check all the beams and do the changes to get passed.
  • Results:
  • Run the analysis again.
  • All the members are passed
