1. GENERAL
1.1 Scope of Work
1.1.1 The main aim of this booklet is to set down some regulations and limits
based on local practice and international codes, which should be taken into
consideration during the structural design process for building structures using
normal weight concrete.
1.2 Definitions
1.2.1 The designer: The appointed firm structural engineer, who is directly
involved in the preparation of structural documents.
1.2.2 The Engineer: The Structural Engineer appointed by the owner to check
and approve structural documents.
1.3 Basis of Design
1.3.1 One- In general all reinforced concrete elements shall be designed to satisfy
the minimum requirement set out in the latest edition of British Standards.
b- Codes allowed to be adopted in design: B.S: Code of practice for structural
use of concrete British Standards BS 8110 and all other relevant British
Standards.
ACI. : Building code requirements for reinforced concrete ACI-318, with
relevant standards cited in the code.
1.3.2 To use other international codes the designer must get a written permission
from the engineer.
1.3.3 Any of the above mentioned codes and standards being chosen, should be
strictly followed together with the requirements of this proposal as mentioned
above and any other local requirements and regulations.
2. MATERIALS
2.1 Cement
2.1.1 The fineness of the ordinary Portland cement should be between 225 m2/kg
and
300 m2/kg (Blaine Test).

2.2 Aggregate
2.2.1 It is not allowed to use aggregates containing serpentine unless directed
otherwise by the engineer.
2.3 Reinforcement
2.3.1 Yield strength of deformed reinforcing bars considered in the design should
not
exceed 420 N/mm2 and 460 N/mm2 reinforcement complying with B.S.4449 to
be used in construction.
2.3.2 Yield strength of ordinary mild steel reinforcing bars considered in the
design
should not exceed 250 N/mm2.
2.4 Concrete
2.4.1 The designer should consider the nature and type of project; the expected
concrete quality, the economy and all other relevant factors in deciding the grade
of the concrete to be adopted in the design. In general the grades commonly used
are between 30 – 45 KN/mm2. However, the designer in the preliminary design
stage is to inform the engineer regarding the grade to be adopted.
2.5 Durability
2.5.1 The concrete should have an adequate resistance to deterioration and the
environment in which it is placed such as weathering, chemical attack, abrasion
and fire.. etc.
Minimum nominal concrete cover shall satisfy the adapted code requirements
with the following minimum requirements being satisfied for all grades of
concrete:

2.5.3 Fire Resistance: The designer is required to cover all the requirements of
the Civil Defense Department, Ministry of Interior Affairs, beside the
requirements of the code adopted; and, in case of any discrepancy, the local
requirements mentioned above should govern.
3.1 Loading
3.1.1 Dead Loads: shall be calculated on the basis of unit weights, which shall be
established taking into consideration the materials specified for construction.
3.1.2 Imposed loads shall not be less than the requirements of the code adapted
with
the following minimum requirements being satisfied:
a- Minimum imposed loads on any horizontal floor or roof 2 KN / M2
either with or without access
b- Educational Building
Class Room 4 KN / M2
Library 5 KN / M2
Corridors, lobbies, Stairway, Foyer 4 KN / M2
c- Hospital
Words & Bedroom 3 KN / M2
X –Ray & Operating Theaters 5 KN / M2
Kitchen 4 KN / M2
Corridors, Lobbies, Stairway, Foyer 5 KN / M2
d-Offices
Public Area 4 KN / M2
For General Use 3 KN / M2
e-Mosque 4 KN / M2

b) Important Buildings
Pubic buildings such as mosques, schools, etc. and all buildings of less than 5
stories and more than 4 stories. Regarding this category, and in general, it is not
required to calculate any generated forces; however, special considerations shall
be taken into account; these include the choice of the structural system,
uniformity in the lateral rigidity and the special seismic detailing.
c) Ordinary Buildings
Residential and office buildings with a maximum of 4-stories. In this case, the
effect of earthquake forces can be neglected.
3.2 Serviceability
3.2.1 Cracking
The shapes and dimensions of all members and the detailing of reinforcement
are to be designed so as to reduce the probability of the appearance of cracks
wider than 0.20 mm. Where members are exposed to aggressive environments,
the surface crack width should not exceed 0.004 times the nominal cover.
3.2.2 Deflection
3.2.2.1 Vertical deflection shall not exceed the limitations and requirements in
the code adopted in addition to the following:

3.5. Robustness
3.5.1 All members of the structure should be effectively tied together in the
longitudinal, transverse and vertical directions and design code requirement to
be considered.
3.5.2 Whenever the span of any structural element exceeding 20 m, deep
investigation is required, taking into account the effect of shrinkage, creep,
temperatural change,……etc

4.3 Beams
4.3.1 Spacing of lateral supports in simply supported or continuous beam shall
not exceed 50 times the least width b of 250 b2/d whichever is less. For a
cantilever the clear distance from the free end of the cantilever to the lateral
restraint shall not exceed 25 b or 100 b2/d whichever is less. In both cases b is the
least width of the beam and d the effective depth.
4.3.2 When the overall depth of a beam exceeds 750 mm, longitudinal side bars
should be provided over a distance of 2/3 of the overall depth from the tension
face.
This reinforcement should be positioned near the side face with a maximum
spacing of 250 mm.
4.3.3 Open links are to be avoided.
4.4 Columns
4.4.1 The percentage of cross-sectional area of longitudinal reinforcement should
not be less than (1 %) and not more than (6 %) except that laps the percentage
may be (10 %).
4.4.2 The spacing of longitudinal bars measured along the periphery of the
column not exceed 300 mm.
4.4.3 Lateral ties shall be at least 8 mm in diameter.

essential information in a form that can be quickly and correctly interpreted.
Written instructions should be clear and concise, kept to a minimum and include
special details of cambers, sequence of construction, etc.
5.1.2 Drawings should be made in standard sizes. All sheets in any one set of
drawings
should be of the same size.
5.2.3 All dimensions to be in metric units.
5.1.4 An arrow indicating the direction of north should be shown on the
drawings.
5.1.5 The drawings should convey definite instructions and show complete details
of reinforcements. It has to furnish a clear statement of design requirements.
5.1.6 In general drawings for elements like beams, girders, columns, walls and
foundations shall show type and grade of reinforcement, characteristic strength
of concrete, concrete dimensions, lap lengths, concrete cover, required joints and
any other information needed for the preparation of workshop drawings.
5.1.7 If it is required to divide the plan into parts, this should be according to
certain construction techniques, and in general this should be as far as possible
according to the position of the expansion and/or other joints.
