4.0 DESIGN BASIS:

4.1 General

The structure of the project is designed in accordance with the relevant Indian Standard, with latest
amendments, which is considered mandatory for reinforced concrete Structures in the country. If
certain provisions are not available in Indian Standard, International Codes and Standards shall be
adopted.

4.2 Grade of Concrete and Cover to the Reinforcement according to the provisions of the Indian Code

The appropriate grade of concrete and nominal cover to reinforcement is governed by the following
main considerations:
i) Durability of Concrete
ii) Corrosion Protection of the Reinforcement
iii) Bar Size
Considering FAR ratio, buildings are designed for Type_II Construction.
iv) Nominal maximum aggregate size

From Durability requirement, exposure condition is assumed as mild for Structural elements above For any other elements not specified above, cover shall be as per the clause 26.4 of IS: 456-2000

and IS: 4326-1993 are followed in order to improve Seismic Response of the structure. Shear walls are
provided with boundary elements at ends detailed as per requirements of columns. The ductility
requirements mainly result into increase in stirrups / ties in beams and columns / shear walls at and
near their junction and some increase in compression reinforcement provided for flexure. In some of
the lightly loaded small span beams, the tensile reinforcement is governed by the minimum
requirement. Stirrups and ties for columns and beams are provided as per codal provisions.
It may be specifically noted that the norms of ductility (detailing impose a few additional problems
during construction. Due to the placement of closely spaced stirrups and ties passing through the beam
column junctions, the placement of reinforcement and concreting needs to be done with utmost care.
Since, lapping of longitudinal reinforcement of columns can only be done at mid-height of floor and not
more than 50% bars are permitted to be spliced at a section it is prudent to have to support long
heights of column reinforcement of up to 2storey heights (up to about 6 m) above the level of
concreting.
