Introduction
1.1 About this Report
This report deals with methodology of the structural analysis and design of a Residental
Building and its result. This report includes different parameters for the analysis and design of
the structure. The design resut are shown in a very convenient tabular format in the report.

1.2 Analysis Procedure

The structure has been modelled, analysed and designed in a computer software "ETABS 2018
ADVANCED VERSION". The software has very good analysis and design capability which are
verified in the verification problems included in the pakage. It is a Finite Element Method
(FEM) based software and requires modelling of the structure by finite-elements. Beams and
Columns are modelled with the line(or frame) elements, while the slabs and roofs are modelled
with area elements.

2.4 Design Basis

The building is designed following the standard codes and norms. The different codes used for
the structural design are
i. IS 456:2000 [Code of practice for plain and reinforced concrete] for Design of Concrete
Structures.
ii. IS1893:2002 [Criteria for earthquake resistant design of structure] for earthquake load
calculation.
iii. IS875:1987 [Code of practice for design loads (other than earthquake) for building and
structures.
iv. SP16:1980 [Design aids for reinforced concrete to IS456:1978] for detailing of structural
members.
v. IS13920:1993 [Ductile detailing of reinforced concrete structures subjected to seismic
forces] for Ductile Detailing of the structure.

4. Loading
All loading are derived based on different parts of IS875. Earthquake load is calculated based on
IS1893:2002.
4.1 Dead Loads (DL)
These are the permanent load which is not supposed to change during the structure's design life.
The dead load included in design are :
1 10" thick wall and 10' height wall with both side plaster(with 0% opening) : 12.4 Kn/m
2 5" thick wall and 10' height wall with both side plaster(with 0% opening) : 6.2 Kn/m
3 5" partition wall : 2.2 Kn/m
4 Floor Finish : 1.1 Kn/m

4.2 Live Loads (LL)

These are the loads that may vary its intensity and/or position during design life. Live loads for
different rooms and roofs are calculated as per the functional requirements as specified in IS875
code.
1 Live load for all accessible floor : 2Kn/m
2 Live load for Staircase and Balcony : 3Kn/m
