Week 8 Challenge

  1. Calculate dead load in design report based on IS code and apply dead load on the model
  • Finishes of 50mm
  • Slab thickness as per the design
  • Brick wall load
  • Roofing load

Answer:

Dead Load:

  • Finishes load for thickness of 50mm= 0.05x24=1.2 KN/m^2
  • Slab load= slab dead load is modelled by the software
  • Brickwall loading with plaster thickness= 155mm for one brickwall.

It is known that the unit weight of brick= 20KN/m^3

Floor height

From ground floor to roof= 3m

Now calculate the brick wall loading= 0.155x3x20= 9.3 KN/m

Brick wall loading with plaster thickness= 230mm for two brick wall

It is known that unit weight of brick= 20KN/m^3

Floor height

From ground floor to roof= 3m

Now to calculate the brick wall loading= 0.230x3x20=13.8 KN/m

  • Roof loading

For roof loading dead load the slab weight is considered+any other small loading like water proofing is considered=1.5 KN/m^2

Dead Load= Finishing load of 1.2 KN/m^2 is applied as area load from ground floor to 10th floor.

Wall load for internal walls which has thickness of 155mm for which 9.3 KN/m is to be apllied as full UDL from ground floor to 10th floor.

Wall load for exterior walls which has thickness of 230mm for wich 13.8 KN/m is to be apllied as full UDL from Ground floor to 10th floor

Dead load= finishing load of 1.2 KN/m^2 is apllied as Area load for the roof

Parapet wall load=0.230x20x1.5=1.3 KN/m is applied as full UDL.

2. Calculate live load in design report based on IS code and apply dead load on the model

Answer:

Live load consideration as per IS 875 part 2 table 1 for residential buildings

The rooms given as per the plan are

Bedroom= 2 KN/m^2

Dining= 2 KN/m^2

Pooja Room= 2 KN/m^2

Kitchen= 2 KN/m^2

Toilets= 2 KN/m^2

Store room= 3 KN/m^2

Stair case= 3 KN/m^2

Balconies= 3 KN/m^2

Drawing room= 3 KN/m^2

Live load of 3 KN/m^2 is applied for the store room

Live load of 2 KN/m^2 is applied for all other rooms

Live load of all floors from first floor to 10 floor in 3D

Service load of 0.3 KN/m^2 is applied for the building from 1st floor to 10th floor as Area load

Service load of 10 KN/m^2 is applied for the building on the roof level as Area load

3. Generate manual wind loading in the design report based IS code as per the following input

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

Wind Load Calculation

4. Based on the above calculation apply the loadings on the model

Answer:

For Face A and B apply in Global Y

For Face C and D apply in Global X

Wind load is applied as Patch load only

1. Wind +X +Cpi: Face A

2. Wind +X +Cpi: Face B

3. Wind +X +Cpi: Face C

4. Wind +X +Cpi: Face D

5. Wind +X -Cpi: Face A.

6. Wind +X -Cpi: Face B

7. Wind +X -Cpi: Face C

8. Wind +X -Cpi: Face D

9. Wind +Y +Cpi: Face A

10. Wind +Y +Cpi: Face B

11. Wind +Y +Cpi: Face C

12. Wind +Y +Cpi: Face D

13. Wind +Y -Cpi: Face A

14. Wind +Y -Cpi: Face B

15. Wind +Y -Cpi: Face C

16. Wind +Y -Cpi: Face D
