Conclusion Girder PB Provided structural steel sections for main Girders are satisfy for both strength and deflection if full composite action is being used. But due to lack of shear studs used in the constructions, full composite action is not mobilized, consequently moment capacity and stiffness of the composite beams reduces. Therefore, provided steel girder fail under then reduce design ultimate loading. While make the adjustment to the live load to consider the stores of height equivalent to 3m, Girder will not further satisfy. However, for working load, the provided section is satisfied subjected to plastic moments and large deformations. Therefore it is recommended to increase the capacity of the section by adding additional section (same size) or welding additional plate (10mm) to the bottom of flange of the girder. Contractor is asked to submit the method statement for review. Cross girder SB Provided section is marginally satisfy for the given loading. But, full composite action is not mobilized due to lack of shear studs. Although relative deflection is satisfy, overall deflection (50mm) is passing the code limit. Therefore, damages to the underneath partition is expected. Slight modifications is required to satisfy the additional live loads Perimeter Cross Beam In the design, light weight partitions along the perimeter have been considered, but at the site, solid block work was used. Therefore perimeter beam is subjected to unexpected additional load and the existing steel structural beam is not adequate for the purpose. Therefore it is recommended to increase the capacity of the section by adding additional section (same size) or welding additional plate (10mm) to the bottom of flange of the girder. Contractor is asked to submit the method statement for review.

Recommendations Contractor is asked to submit the method statement about the rectifications to be done. All the rectifications should be done at the zero imposed loading conditions, as structure is safe without imposed loads. It is recommended to jack the beams where higher amount of deflections were detected before doing the rectifications. Following recommendations will be adopted as possible rectifications methods Perimeter Cross Girder Weld 125X10mm steel plate 10mm Thick) along the bottom flange of the Steel Girders SB at the edge of the slabs and weld stiffeners (5mm thick plates) to the web at the either side of the girders (all the SB Girders) at the interval of 300mm between first 2m from the supports and rest of the beams at the interval of 600mm Girder PB Weld 175X10mm steel plate 10mm Thick) along the bottom flange of the Steel Girders SB at the edge of the slabs and weld stiffeners (5mm thick plates) to the web at the either side of the girders (all the SB Girders) at the interval of 300mm between first 2m from the supports and rest of the beams at the interval of 600mm.
