To Model a RC residential structure using TSD

Answer of the question No. 1

AIM: Setup model for RC building design and based on following parameters for cover

MEMBERS	IN CONTACT WITH GROUND	ABOVE GROUND
Column	50mm	40mm
Beam	30mm	25mm
Slab	30mm	25mm
Pilecap	75mm
Foundation	50mm

PROCEDURE:

STEPS:

1. Open TEKLA Software.
2. Go to settings->Structure defaults
3. Select the SSL for the cover in contact with the ground
4. Enter the cover values as given in the above table.
5. For the cover above the ground change default type to TOF
6. And apply the cover to the slabs

RESULT:i completed the answer of the question.

Answer of the question No. 2

AIM: Model RC columns, beams and slabs as per your general arrangement

PROCEDURE:

STEP-1

1. the columns and beams position in a structure. Gridlines are important as they help in placing the element with accuracy
2. On the previous question we were working
3. Go to model and tab under grids and construction lines
4. Draw grid lines according to the placement of the columns
5. Click on Grids than draw the grid line and then select paralleled quick in grids panel
6. Enter the distance of the grids as per the placing of the columns
7. Then use the perpendicular grid and select the line to which u want the perpendicular grids

RESULT: i completed the answer of the question.

Answer of the question No. 3

AIM: Study the layout and write a summary for general arrangement of the structure

PROCEDURE:

STEP

1. First the design of any structure ,we need to study the layout and decide whether the layout is possible according the structure behaviours.
2. Below shown is the column arrangement according to the plan
3. notice one column line is not at the grid line 2
4. Now need to adjust the arrangement according to the entrance.
5. To reduce the deflection of the beams we provide secondary beams
6. And we design the primary beams for torsion which support the secondary beam.
7. The green line show the primary beams

Result: i completed the answer of the question.

Answer of the question No. 4

AIM: Model RC columns, beams and slabs as per your general arrangement

PROCEDURE:

STEP:

1. Go to model panel
2. Construction level enter the details of the levels you want
3. Now we have G+1 floor level in this plan
4. After entering the detail Click OK
5. Now the construction level is given,
6. Go to the base level
7. Go to manage property sets New property
8. Concrete columns select the materials(M30,Fe415 Nominal cover=50mm)

Select 3D toggle to view in 3D.

After providing the column and beams to the structure

3D toggle view

1. we design the slabs for the structures
2. Go to home panel->Manage property sets
3. New slab on beams items

1. to model panel and click on validate no error shown
2. structure 3D to view the model in 3D

Result :

Concrete columns are placed. Concrete beams are placed. Slab on beams are placed . Model is validated and checked for errors.
