1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed Ample apartments is to be construction at Ramlal Street Aranguez, where the soil
is suit for a three-story concrete frame structure supported on shallow foundation. Each floor has
two apartments where the first, second floor and roof are supported with 356 mm x 400 mm
depth reinforced concrete beams supported with 356 mm square reinforced concrete column.
A prefeasibility study was carried out to get a better understanding of the constraints list below
and how they will impact the project objectives and to identify mitigation measures to reduce the
impact of these risk.
 Technical: approved engineering design to identify materials, procedures and project

schedule to reduce the likelihood of delays.
 , Environmental: high impact from noise during construction, but it can be mitigated by
scheduling equipment activities for during the day and limit the use of vibrating
machinery. The second risk is to health from poor air quality due to dust generated from
work activity. Mitigation measures are:
 Employ a fine water spray to reduce dust levels and use dust screens in areas of
high concentration
 , Social: impact is low and has no risk to the project
 Economic
 The estimates cost of construction $ 5,478,554.20 plus vat total cost $
6,163,373.48
 The annual income generated is $ 432,000
 Total income generated after 20 years is $ 8,640,000
 Profit generated is $848,461.77
From this report, it can be concluded that the project would be feasible to construct as the
problems that arises during the construction process can be fixed. This would ensure that the
project would be completed on time without having a vast impact to the client, contractor,
environment and the community.

2.0 INTRODUCTION
This project involved the construction of a three-story residential complex that included six
apartments, a convenience store, and a large parking area for residents. In order to do this, we
must first guarantee that the structure can endure gravitational and lateral stresses while still
fulfilling its intended function. If the structure is to function well and be fairly maintained, it is
essential that all safety criteria are met. Aranguez is the location that has been suggested. This
area, which was once known for its agricultural land, has recently seen a rise in residential and
commercial development.
Designed to suit individuals and/or working couples on a budget, the flats are available for a
reasonable basic monthly rent. Upon entering the complex, each unit would be assigned a
parking space on the property. The apartments also have a private balcony where the occupant(s)
can sit and relax while admiring the beautiful view. The presence of on-site convenience stores is
an added plus that would entice prospective tenants to move in. They would be conveniently
located on the ground and first floors, and they would-be run-in order to offer the tenants
convenient access to both local and foreign merchandise.
The structural drawings of the proposed structure, as well as the structural analysis and design
calculations, are included in this package. Among the computer programs that were utilized to
execute this project were Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Project, which
worked in conjunction with Autodesk AUTO CAD and STAAD Pro.

4.1 CONSIDERATION IN DETERMINATION SITE LOCATION
Numerous variables were taken into consideration when determining the location of the property,
including but not limited to geographical proximity to amenities such as schools, public transit,
banks, restaurants, playgrounds, and healthcare facilities, among others. The vulnerability to
potential dangers such as flooding and landslides, as well as acceptable soil conditions that
would not require the use of several ground improvement techniques or the use of an excessively
expensive foundation design, were other important considerations. The site location of Aranguez
was chosen because it met the majority of the criteria given above. Having the towns of San Juan
and El Socorro as neighbours makes it easier to access the amenities that make for a comfortable
living environment. The planned site's location is depicted in figures 1, 2, and 3, and the soil
condition is depicted in figures 4 and 5 below.

4.4 FACTORS THAT AFFECTS STRUCTURAL FRAME SYSTEMS SELECTION
4.4.1 INTRODUCTION
When structural framing is specified by the structural engineer, a variety of considerations come
into play. Because there are so many criteria, there is no definitive answer as to which frame
scheme would work better. At the same time, the interests of numerous parties must be fulfilled,
which means that the final decision is not always in the hands of the structural engineer.
Regardless of the number of variables impacting the design team's selection of a structural
system, there are a few main continuous concerns from project to project. There are a lot of
things to think about when it comes to the construction code, the owner, aesthetics, functional
needs, spans and/or structural depth limits, timetable, and cost.
4.4.2 SELECTION OF STRUCTURAL FRAME SYSTEM
4.4.2.1 BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS

A building code is a set of rules that set the minimum standards for things like buildings and
other structures that aren't built. To gain planning authorization, structures must adhere to the
code. The primary objective of building codes is to safeguard public health, safety, and welfare
in the construction and occupation of buildings and structures. The building codes utilized in this
project are ASCE 7-05 Minimum Design Loads for buildings and other Structures and Building
Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-08) and Commentary
4.4.2.2 OWNER PREFERENCE AND AESTHETICS

Aesthetics are crucial in many types of buildings, and the materials used in a construction can
occasionally influence its appearance. When an engineer selects materials for a project, he or she
frequently has a visual goal in mind. This objective can have an impact on anything from the
materials selected to the structural system. On the other hand, owners frequently favour one
structural system over another. They may, however, not be basing their conclusion on all of the
facts.
4.4.2.3 FUNCTIONAL NEEDS

The usage of a structure or its location may dictate the structural system used. Buildings in
hurricane- and earthquake-prone areas, in particular, necessitate specific engineering and must
adhere to very strict rules. Building structures must be built such that they do not deflect
13 | P a g e
excessively, harming the materials and causing discomfort to the occupants. The ASCE sets
restrictions on a building's floor and roof deflections, as well as its permissible lateral drift.
When it comes to structural systems, different building kinds usually have unique requirements.
4.4.2.4 LIMITATIONS ON SPANS AND/OR STRUCTURAL DEPTH

The size or space requirements of a structure may necessitate the employment of a certain
structural system. Longer spans between columns result in deeper floor structures when a
building requires extensive, column-free floor sections. The height of one floor to the next is
always a factor in structural considerations. Many building types in this area are also subject to
height restrictions imposed by local zoning rules.
4.4.2.5 SCHEDULE
The timing of a project, like its cost, can impact the type of building structure chosen. One factor
is the length of time it takes to obtain materials. It can take two to four months to fill a structural
steel fabrication order, whereas getting the ingredients to pour concrete takes only a few days.
However, if properly planned, a steel structure can be built in less time, but it will require
specialized labour.
4.4.5.6 COST
When evaluating the cost of a project, there are two components to consider: materials and
labour. The average installed materials cost is frequently used as a measure of efficiency. (Steel
weight or concrete volume per square foot of floor area) However, when constructability is
considered, this technique is often incorrect. The labour component must be considered. More
intricate reinforcing steel layouts or slight variations in steel sizes in place of repeating sizes can
dramatically increase labour demands. A modest increase in steel weight or concrete material to
simplify installation work often results in faster construction with fewer delays. The decrease in
labour costs offsets the little increase in material costs.
It's crucial to figure out how much one system costs versus another. Furthermore, since the
relative cost of each material varies, the cost of one system vs another changes over time.
Concrete, reinforcing steel, and structural steel prices might fluctuate over time, thus the
estimated start date is also crucial for proper pricing.
14 | P a g e
4.4.5.6 CONCLUSION
Despite the fact that there are numerous variables that influence the selection of a structural
frame system, a systematic approach applied early in the project's design should result in the
selection of the system that is most appropriate for the project at hand. As a result of a
collaborative approach between stakeholders, it is even more likely that everyone's primary
concerns will be addressed in the final building design.

4.6 STRUCTURAL FRAME SYSTEMS SELECTION
4.6.1 INTRODUCTION
A lateral resisting frame will be required for this project because Trinidad and Tobago have
always been vulnerable to powerful earthquakes due to their geographical location within an
active seismic region, including catastrophic occurrences that occur infrequently but have a high
destructive potential. Because of the demand for space arrangement, a reinforced concrete
moment frame will be used in this project due to the presence of resisting gravity loads such as
dead and live loads, as well as lateral forces such as earthquakes and wind.
A moment frame is a unique form of frame in which each of its constituent elements is
connected rigidly. This structure is capable of withstanding lateral and overturning stresses
because to the inherent bending moment and shear strength of its parts and connecting joints.
Thus, in seismic design, the stiffness and strength of the moment frame are determined by the
stiffness and strength of its parts. Due to the fact that moment frames are more malleable than
other solutions, such as shear walls, they allow for greater movement during an earthquake. To
avoid damage, rigid elements attached to the frame, such as the blocks or cladding, must be
engineered to accommodate the increased movement.
4.6.2 MOMENT FRAME SELECTION

When it comes to the moment frame, there are several different types to consider:
1. Ordinary Moment Frame (OMF): It is only used in earthquake-prone locations with

zero or low seismic activity since this sort of portal frame system offers very little
resistance to lateral displacement.
2. Intermediate Moment Frame (IMF): Limited inelastic deformations in the moment
frames are released as a result of the intermediate moment frames, which is how the
intermediate moment frames are constructed. It is because of lateral forces that the
moment frames develop an inelastic deformation.
3. Special Moment Frame (SMF): As one of the most stable and robust connections, those
with specific moment frames can withstand the inelastic deformation that occurs when
members are subjected to lateral forces.
18 | P a g e
When determining the type of moment frame to utilize, buildings and other structures are
categorized according to their intended use in accordance with ASCE 7-05 Minimum Design
Loads for Buildings and Other Structures (Table 1-1) for the purpose of applying flood, wind,
snow, and earthquake provisions. The occupancy classifications range from I to IV, with I
representing buildings and other structures that pose little risk to human life in the event of
failure and IV representing vital amenities. Each structure or building must be assigned an
occupancy category or categories. The occupancy category for this project is II.
Once an occupancy category is chosen, a number of important values and classes must be
chosen, such as importance factor, soil site class, spectral acceleration, and so on (refer to
calculation package, seismic loads, for full calculation of seismic base shear). This information
and calculation will then lead to Design Spectral Response Acceleration for Short and 1-Second
Periods values, which will be used in ASCE 7-05 (Table 11.6-1). According to ASCE 7-05, the
seismic design category for this project is D. (Table 12.2-1) Only a special reinforced concrete
moment frame is permitted in Seismic Design Category D.
4.6.2 CONCLUSION
In this project, reinforced concrete special moment frames will be used as part of seismic force-
resisting systems. Moment frame beams, columns, and beam-column joints are proportioned and
specified to withstand flexural, axial, and shearing motions caused by a building swaying
through many displacement cycles during significant earthquake ground shaking. Special
finishing and proportioning rules make a frame that can withstand a lot of shaking while still
being strong and rigid.

5.0 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURAL
20 | P a g e
5.1 INTRODUCTION
The structure is composed of an interconnected system of components that are used to support
external loads. Structural analysis is defined as the prediction of the structure's reaction to
external loads applied to specified member elements. The preliminary structural design stage
estimates the structure's possible applied load and also determines the size of the structure's
members based on these expected loads. The model is then built in STAAD Pro and output for
the design of structural elements is provided based on the primary sizes of beams such as
column, beams, and slab thickness.
21 | P a g e
5.2 ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY
Steps used for the Analysis of the Structure:
 Model structure
 Assign member properties
 Apply Loads
 Analyse structure
 Review output data
The structural analysis was utilized to establish a link between the expected external load on a
structural component and the member's produced internal stresses and displacements during
service (Pilla, 2017). When designing this structure, we concentrated on vertical and horizontal
loads. After creating a model in STAAD Pro based on the desired arbitrary example of RCC
columns and beams, the structural members were loaded. The program then projected the
structure's response to the imposed loads. The structural design is integrated into the analysis at
this preliminary level. The results are used to calculate the sizes of structural members (if they
differ from the assumed sizes in the model) and reinforcements.
The building must be designed and erected in accordance with applicable building codes and
regulations. These are legally binding documents that control the design and construction of all
buildings. These codes do not prescribe design techniques, but they do specify the design
requirements and restrictions that must be met in order to ensure the safety of a structure. Any
structure that is designed must be capable of supporting the stated minimum loads.
Consequently, the engineer must research the required actual loads on the building based on its
planned usage. These design loads were chosen from ASCE 7-5, Minimum Design Loads for
Buildings and other Structures.

6.0 DESIGN APPROACH
57 | P a g e
6.1. DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
In this earthquake-prone zone, our team designed this design calculation package for a three-
story residential apartment structure. After receiving the architectural designs from the customer,
our major objective for this project was to guarantee the building is safe and functional under
gravity and lateral loading circumstances. Due to the fact that special moment frames (SMFs) are
intended to survive significant inelastic deformation during a design earthquake, special
proportioning structural elements and detailing criteria are required to withstand severe
earthquake shaking. This unique moment frame structure is design entirely for cast-in-place,
normal-weight concrete with rectilinear cross sections.
Building structures, in general, are composed of a three-dimensional frame of structural elements

designed to support gravitational and lateral forces. Beams, columns, and beam-column junctions
comprise reinforced concrete special moment frames. The frames are proportioned and designed
to withstand the flexural, axial, and shearing forces generated as a building sways through many
displacement cycles during an earthquake. Special proportioning and finishing requirements
result in a frame that is capable of withstanding severe seismic shaking while retaining
significant stiffness and strength. Due to these additional standards, these moment-resisting
frames are referred to as "special moment frames," which improve earthquake resistance in
comparison to less stringently defined ordinary and intermediate moment frames.
6.2 PRINCIPLES FOR DESIGN OF SPECIAL MOMENT FRAMES

ASCE 7-05 specifies a design base shear that is significantly smaller than the base shear
necessary for linear response at the predicted magnitude of the earthquake. As a result, it is likely
that earthquake ground vibrations at the design level will push a building structure above its
linear response range. Keeping with this expectation, ACI 318-08 provides proportioning and
detailing standards for special moment frames designed to generate a structure capable of
repeated cycles of inelastic response without experiencing significant strength loss. Three
primary objectives are:
 To establish a strong-column/weak-beam design that distributes inelastic reactions

across numerous stories.
 To provide characteristics that allow for ductile flexural response in appropriate yielding
zones while avoiding nonductile failures.

 Additionally, linkages to non-structural components such as staircases, walls etc. must
be detailed and build in a way that does not compromise the frame's intended function as
a moment frame.
6.3 PROPOSED BUILDING DESIGN

The structural design of a reinforced concrete building was done for this project, which entails all
the structural members such as floor slabs, beams, columns, and footings, as well as civil works
such as drainage. For the floor slab, it was designed as a two-way slab diaphragm, which is (not
part of the moment frame system) with the roof slab having a thickness of 125mm and the first
and second floors being 140mm thick, cast on top of 350mm wide x 400mm deep reinforced
concrete beams, which are connected to 350mm square reinforced concrete columns supported
by various sizes of reinforced concrete pad footing foundations, which are interconnected by
350mm wide x 400mm deep ground beams. The staircase was designed to be anchored to
supporting beams. The concrete strength for the staircase was provided at 3000 psi, and the
concrete strength for all other structural elements was 4000 psi. The structural system is a
combination of gravity and lateral elements, with some beams and columns designed specifically
for gravity and not part of the special moment resisting frame.
The structure was analysed using the design software STAAD Pro. The building was modelled in
the program, member attributes were assigned, gravity and lateral loads were imposed on the
structure in accordance with the code, load combinations were added to the model, and the
structure was analysed to obtain the required outputs such as bending moments, shear force, and
torsion. After identifying this information, an excel spreadsheet is used to compute the sizes and
reinforcement. Adjustments to member sizes may be necessary if the model's sizing is deemed
insufficient or excessive. This is done in order to produce a more cost-effective design that
complies with (Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-08) and
Commentary).

6.4 LOADS
6.4.1 INTRODUCTION
Vertical loads, horizontal loads, and longitudinal loads are all types of loads found in buildings
and structures. Vertical loads are comprised of three types: dead load, live load, and impact load.
Wind and earthquake loads are considered horizontal loads. The correct calculation of the
numerous loads acting is required. ASCE 7-05: Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other
Structures It provides a variety of design loads for buildings and other structures, which are
covered in detail below.
6.4.2 DEAD LOADS

The weight of a building's structural parts, such as beams, walls, roof, and structural flooring
components, are examples of dead loads, also known as permanent or static loads. Permanent
non-structural dividers, immovable fixtures, and even built-in cupboards can all be considered
dead loads. Before any live loads are considered, dead loads include the weight of the structure
or other fixed parts. The overall load on the structure is calculated by adding the live and dead
loads. The dead loads of any construction are computed by taking the volume of each segment
and multiplying it by the unit material weight.
6.4.3 SELF-WEIGHT
In order to fully analyse the structure, the dead loads in this project are separated into two
components: superimposed dead load and self-weight. The term "self-weight" refers to the
body's inherent weight as a result of the mass it contains. The constant load on the structure is the
load exerted by the self-weight. It does not change or alter unless there is an alteration to the
body, such as a change in cross section or a change in the material. When calculating the load for
any structure, the self-weight is a crucial consideration.
The self-weight is calculated using the formula.
ρ is the density of the material, B is the breadth, and D is the depth.
6.4.4 SUPERIMPOSED DEAD LOADS

Superimposed dead loads, alternatively referred to as design loads, are made up of floor finishes,
block walls, suspended ceilings, and gypsum plaster, among others. ASCE 7-05 specifies values
60 | P a g e
that can be used to compute the imposed loads on a structure. The superimposed dead load can
be calculated using the unit weight and dimensions of the object as specified in the code.
6.4.5 LIVE LOADS

"Live load" is a phrase used in civil engineering to refer to a load that is subject to varying over
time. The load's weight is changeable or fluctuates in place, as when individuals walk around
inside a building. Everything in a building that is not permanently attached to the structure can
generate a live load due to its mobility. The calculation of a structure's gravity load takes live
loads into account. They are expressed as a weight per square foot. The required minimum live-
load is determined by the anticipated maximum load. A live load can be defined as a load that is
uniformly distributed (UDL) or one that acts on a concentrated area (point load). It may
potentially be considered in gravity load calculations.
The type of occupancy or use of the structure determines the load assumption. Minimum
uniformly distributed live loads, lo, and minimum concentrated live loads are specified in ASCE
7-05 (Table 4-1). The values for a residential apartment were obtained for this project and used
for analysis.
Note: For a complete list of (Dead and Live Loads) utilized in this project, see the calculation
package.

6.5 WIND LOADS
The flow of air relative to a structure can apply wind loads, and analysis relies on knowledge of
meteorology, aerodynamics, and construction. Wind load may not be a major worry for small,
large, low-rise structures, but it becomes more important when buildings rise in height, lighter
materials are used, and shapes that alter air flow, such as roof forms, are used. Additional
structure and fixings may be necessary if the dead weight of a building is insufficient to
withstand wind stresses. Wind load must be included in the structural design when the height of
the structure reaches two times the size transverse to the exposed wind surface.
The design wind loads for this building was determined according to Method 2 – Analytical
procedure for regular shaped building and structures.
Procedure
This strategy is applicable to both regular buildings (those with standard geometry) and other
types of regular structures. The method is not applicable to structures whose characteristics may
result in complicated consequences (vortex effects, instability), necessitating additional analysis.
Gust magnification effects on flexible structures are included in the design forces for
conventional buildings. These impacts must be evaluated for uncommon structures using revised
theories or wind tests.
The Design Procedure is as follows:
• The Wind Directionality Factor Kd and the Basic Wind Speed V shall be determined.
• The Importance Factor I value will be established.
• For each wind direction, an exposure category and velocity pressure exposure coefficient Kz or
Kh shall be computed.
• A Topographic Factor Kzt must be determined.
• A Gust Effect Factor G or Gf must be determined.
• A classification of enclosures shall be established.
• GCpi values for internal pressure coefficients shall be determined.
62 | P a g e
• Cp or GCpf External Pressure Coefficients shall be determined.
• It is necessary to determine the velocity pressure qz or qh.
• The P or F value for the design wind load shall be determined.
The velocity and internal pressure were calculated using a Basic Wind Speed V of 117 mph 3 sec
gust for Trinidad. After determining the forces operating on the structure in various directions,
leeward, windward, sides, and roof, the tributary area method was used to apply the forces to the
external columns of the building. Wind pressure was applied at roof level utilizing the floor
loads.
Note: refer to wind calculation package for full calculation of wind loads and its application
to the model.
63 | P a g e
6.6 SEISMIC LOADS
The inertia force created in the building as a result of seismic excitations causes earthquake load.
The inertia force changes depending on the mass. Because the structure has a bigger mass, the
earthquake loading will be higher as well. When the earthquake stress exceeds the element's
moment of resistance, the structure will break or be damaged. The magnitude of earthquake
loading is determined by the building's weight or mass, dynamic qualities, and stiffness
differences between adjacent floors, as well as the earthquake's strength and length. The force of
an earthquake acts on the surface of a structure on the ground or on a neighbouring building.
Buildings in places that are prone to earthquakes, like Trinidad and Tobago, need to be
thoroughly checked and planned to make sure they won't fall down or significantly damage if an
earthquake happens.
The following elements influence earthquake load:
 Seismic hazard
 Parameter of the structure
 Gravity load.
6.6.1 BASE AND STORY SHEAR
The words linked with the earthquake are base shear, storey shear, and base moment. Base shear
is a calculation of the greatest predicted lateral force at the base of a structure owing to seismic
ground motion. It is determined by the site's soil conditions. The proportion of the story shear
force when story failure occurs to the story shear strength when total collapse happens is known
as the Storey shear factor. Simple equations are proposed as a result of a series of dynamic
analyses to compute the required story shear safety factor that may be employed to prevent story
collapse.
Special moment frames must be designed with both strength and stiffness in mind. ASCE 7
permits the design of special moment frames with a response modification coefficient of R = 8.
As a result, they may be built with a base shear equal to one-eighth of the value determined by a
linear elastic response study. In general, moment frames are adaptable, lateral force-resisting
structures.
64 | P a g e
The base shear is estimated according to ASCE 7-05 in conjunction with seismic maps for
Trinidad in this project.
The seismic load analysis, entails finding the required base shear value and how this force is
distributed to the building. For this to be accomplished a number of checks has been done as
listed below:

This base shear is then translated into individual story shears, which is then divided by the
number of columns in the moment frame for the X and Y to obtain a force that will be applied to
each node in its corresponding direction. A diagram of the exceptional moment frame used for
this project is shown below.
Note: Please see the calculation package for the complete base shear calculation.

6.7 LOAD COMBINATION
There is a load combination when more than one kind of load is put on a structure at the same
time. Building codes often specify a wide range of load combinations and weightings for each
type of load to make sure the structure is safe under different maximum-loading situations.
For this project, load combinations from ASCE 7-05 were used. Load combination or design for
strength (ASCE 7-05, sec, 2.3.2).

6.9 STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS
6.9.1 REINFORCED CONCRETE SLAB
All floors conform to the requirements for a two-way slab with a long side less than twice the
width of the short side. For this sort of slab, ACI 318 -08 identifies two design approaches: direct
design and equivalent frame design. The two-way slab deflects in both directions, and the
principal reinforcement is placed in both directions. In this project, two two-way slabs were
designed using the ACI 318-08 direct design approach. The direct design approach which was
done in this project, which might also be called direct analysis, is detailed below. It determines
or dictates moments for various components of the slab panel without requiring structural
analysis.
Procedures used in the Direct Design Method for Two-Way Slab Design
 Determine the slab's kind and configuration
 Choose a slab thickness that is big enough to avoid big deflections and to allow for shear
at the inner and outer columns.
 Select a design technique (direct design method in this case).
 Calculate the slab's positive and negative moments.
 Distribute moments evenly throughout the breadth of the slab.
 If beams are present, specify the fraction of moments associated with them.
 Calculate reinforcements for the moments identified in the preceding two points.
 Determine the shear strength.
Design Slab thickness:
First Floor Level: 140mm R.C Slab
Second Floor Level: 140mm R.C Slab
Roof Level: 125mm R.C Slab
73 | P a g e
6.9.2 REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAM
Beam configuration
For specific moment frames, typically economical beam spans are in the range of 5 to 9 m. In
general, this range results in beam depths that are capable of supporting conventional gravity
loads and the necessary earthquake loads without overloading nearby beam to column
connections and columns. This was the primary consideration during the structural frame
system's configuration.
Beam Dimension
ACI 318-08 specifies dimension limits. 9.5 Table (a) A beam's clear span must be greater than 4
times its effective depth. The depth of the beam cannot exceed twice the depth of the column in
the framing direction, this limits the aspect ratio of the beam-column connection and so improves
force transfer. The beam width bw must be at least 0.3hb, which restricts the cross sections to
more compacted shapes rather than extended rectangles; all design beams for this project are 350
wide x 400 deep which conforms to ACI
Strength of the Beam Moment and Longitudinal Reinforcement
The structure is analysed under design loads to calculate the requisite flexural strengths at beam
plastic hinges, that should be situated at the extremities of the beams, right at the column face.
The beam section is constructed in such a way that the design moment strength is at least equal
to the expected moment strength calculated using appropriate factored load combinations, that is,
ϕMn ≥ Mu, at each plastic hinge point.
After completing the preceding stages, Mpr is utilized to compute the probable moment strength.
The probable moment strength would be used to specify the shear strength of the beam and the
strength of the beam-column joint. A goal of the design of special moment frames is to confine
yielding to specifically specified beam lengths.
Shear and Transverse Reinforcement of Beams
The capacity design method is used to determine the beam design shear. To achieve ductile
response, components must yield in flexure and avoid shear and other nonductile failure modes.
Nonductile failures are typically avoidable by employing a capacity design strategy. The general
74 | P a g e
approach is to identify flexural yielding regions, which are typically located 2h b from the column
face, design those areas for the code-required moment strengths, and then calculate additional
design forces based on equilibrium, presuming the flexural yielding areas develop probable
moment strengths.
The resulting beam shears for a typical beam within a special moment frame system do not trend
to zero around midspan, as they would with a gravity-only beam. Most beams in a particular
moment frame, on the other hand, will have shear demands that are non-reversing along their
length. At a distance of 2hb from the place where the beam is predicted to undergo flexural
yielding, close-spaced, closed hoops are required to be place in this region. One or more closed
hoops can be used to make hoop reinforcement. Hoops can also be made of standard beam
stirrups with seismic hooks at either end and closed off with crossties with 90° and 135° hooks at
opposite ends of the beam section.
Joint Shear in SMF beams
After determining the longitudinal reinforcement in the beams, the next design step is to verify
the joint shear in the beam-column connections. Joint shear is a vital check that frequently
dictates the column size in moment frames.
Beam design geometry
The design of beam members was done via Microsoft excel. Once the model was generated the
location of critical beams with the highest beading moment and shear force where identified and
its values where then utilized to design both SMF and gravity beams. For simplicity, the beams
were grouped into categories, Primary Beam 1 (PB1-PB5), each have the same dimension of
350mm wide x 400mm deep but beam type carries different reinforcement base on their location
on the structure and the forces that acts on the beam, and PB6 which dimension are 350mm wide
x 740mm deep. The design of the beams follows Building Code Requirements for Structural
Concrete (ACI 318-08) and Commentary

6.9.3 COLUMN DESIGN
Columns C1 and C2 are part of the reinforced concrete special moment frame seismic force-
resisting system; these members are designed to resist lateral forces during a seismic event and to
carry the building's gravity load throughout its design life, and are thus subjected to axial and
combined bending loads. Columns are designed in such a way that the beams framing the joint
will yield before the column, preventing the structure from collapsing catastrophically and
enhancing the likelihood of human life's survival during a seismic event.
The procedure for the design of the column was done in the following steps:
The building structure was modeled using structural analysis software STAAD where gravity,
wind, seismic loads and loads combinations as per ASCE 7-05 section 2-3 were inputted as an
outline in the load section in this report and internal forces generated such as the factorial axial,
shear forces and bending moments, which were then used in manual calculation aid by an Excel
spread sheet using ACI guidelines for earthquake resistant structures chapter 21, Design of Low
Rise Reinforced Concrete Buildings chapter 6, Design and Detailing for SDCS, D, E, and F, and
a downloaded ACI interaction diagram spread sheet.
A special moment frame member subjected to bending and axial loads with a factored load of Pu
> Ag ƒ’c/10 from any load combination must be designed and detailed to ACI 318 – 08 section
21 – 6, which outlines the following requirements.
The least member cross section dimension that passed through geometric centroid must be equal
to or greater than 12 inches and shortest dimension perpendicular to this axis must have a ratio
greater than 0.4 ACI 318 – 8 section 21-6.1.1 and 21-6 .1.2
The minimum flexural strength of the column must be at least 20% higher that the flexural
strength of the beam framing into the joint at the column, this is governed by ACI eq 21-1 ƩM nc
> (6/5) Ʃ Mnb
Where ƩMnc is the nominal flexural strength of the column framing into the joint, which is
calculated by taking the column's factored axial loads at the points above and below the beam
framing into the top of the column joint, which is inputted into the interaction diagram spread
sheet, and the corresponding values are the column's nominal flexural strength.

interaction diagram of 125.8 k- ft and the bottom of beam, column C1 which is tag as beam # 59
at node 48 have factorial axial force of 143.09 k with a corresponding moment from the
interaction diagram of 136.6 k-ft. Where Ʃnc = 262.1 k- ft
The flexural strength value of beam framing into the column is 107.23 k ft at the face of the
column, see beam calculation sheet, PB1 SMF design (beam#9
120% of nominal moment of beam at joint, (6/5ƩMnb) is 257.35 k ft < ƩMnc = 262.1 k- ft this
satisfied ACI 21.6.2 that the column flexural strength greater than 120 % of the framing into the
joint. The beam along Z axis was chosen because of it has a greater capacity than the beam along
the x axis which has a nominal of 82.26 k-ft at the joint therefore (6/5ƩM nb) is 197.44 k ft,
resulting in a column that meet the ACI requirement for both beams.
Column C1 with a cross sectional area of 196 in2 and longitudinal steel reinforcement cross
sectional of 3.52 in2 is adequate for resisting lateral loads outline the load chapter in this report.

105.53 k with a corresponding moment from the beam, column interaction diagram of 147.1 k-ft.
Where Ʃnc = 284 k- ft
The flexural strength for the beam at the face of column C2 is 107.23 k ft framing into the joint
along the z axis, where 1.2ƩMnb = 257.357 k ft.< Ʃ nc = 284 k- ft
For column C1 with a cross sectional area of 196 in2 and longitudinal steel reinforcement cross
sectional of 4.4 in2 is adequate for resisting lateral loads outline the load chapter in this report

Transverse reinforcement is there to prevent buckling of longitudinal bars also used transfer
stress from compress force action provide ductility and confine the concrete core of the column.
At the joints where the risk of flexural yielding is high over the length ℓo, the required transverse
reinforcement space, must be in accordance with ACI 21.6.4 .3 where the spacing between hoop,
s is the smallest of the following:
 The minimum member dimension/4
 6 times smallest longitudinal bar
 4 inches ≤ so = 4 + (14 – hx)/3 ≤ 6
80 | P a g e
For columns C1 & C2, s = 3.5”
And the length ℓo = 18”
The cross-sectional area of transverse required from spread sheet, Ash, = 0.48 in 2
Cross - sectional area available for C1, = 0.6in2
The minimum cross - sectional area available in the X direction for C2, = 0.6in 2
The maximum cross - sectional area available in the Z direction for C2, = 0.8in 2
81 | P a g e
The column C1 and C2 shear requirements for special moment frames subjected to flexure and
axial loads are based on the probable moment strength Mpr of the beams framing the column,
and the probable moment at the base of the column is based on the largest axial force from a load
combination containing E. The transverse reinforcement in the columns has to resist the
maximum shear force associated with the formation of the plastic hinges in the frame (ACI 318 –
14 .21 .6.5.1) Although the intention is to have the inelastic deformation in the beams, a hinge
can also develop in the column. Therefore, the design of the shear reinforcement is based on the
maximum probable moment that could develop at the ends of the columns. Please see calculation
spread sheets SMF C1 & C2 for detailed design calculations of shear reinforcement.
Summary
The spacing required for transverse reinforcement beyond the length ℓo for C1, s = 5 in
The development length of longitudinal lap joint = 37.95 in
The spacing required for transverse reinforcement beyond the length ℓo for C2, s = 4.7 in
The development length of longitudinal lap joint = 37.95 in
The column C3 is not part of the seismic force resisting system. Therefore, beams, columns, and
slabs must be designed to ACI 21.13. It is assumed that these members don’t form part of the
lateral resisting system but must continue to carry the gravity loads during the maximum
displacement of the seismic resisting frame. Therefore, the frame is detailed in accordance to the
magnitude of the moment and shear. For this design, the load combination of 1.2D + 1.0L gives
an axial load,
 Pu of 139 kip
 design axial strength, ᶲPu = 524.4 kip
 factored moment, Mu = 27.65k ft
 design moment from interaction diagram ᶲMn= 69.2 k ft
 Factored shear, Vu = 1.622k
 Design shear, ᶲVn = 63.38k
82 | P a g e
The column C3 was design to the following parameter
Mu ≤ ᶲMn and Vu ≤ ᶲVn
Ag ƒ’c /10 ≤ Pu ≤ 0.35 Po
Therefore, the column can be detail to ACI 21.13.3.2 as shown below.

As an alternative to standard foundations, ground beams are beams that are meant to span
between pad foundations, piles, and so on. The advantages of ground beams over conventional
footings are their speed of installation and their ability to overcome ground condition
uncertainty. Additionally, they produce a very accurate bearing level, which minimizes the
amount of levelling required before to beginning construction of the superstructure. The ground
beam being designed as a single unit will operate as a rigid floor, hence limiting lateral
deformations.
6.9.4.1 GROUND BEAM DESIGN CONCEPT

The moment frame must finally transform into a plastic mechanism when subjected to seismic
loads. It is unable to do so without forming a hinge at the base of the columns. Without this, the
mechanism would be incomplete. If you do not supply a ground beam system, your plastic
hinges must be formed at the footing level. In other words, your footings must be strong enough
to withstand the same amount of force as the plastic hinge capacity of your columns, which is
what this means.
Those plastic hinge moments can be resisted by the ground beams rather than the footings if you
offer a stiff enough ground beam to cause the column hinges to develop at the top of the ground
beam rather than at the footing height. Even with the ground beams, you'll see some bending in
your footings. However, it will take much less time and, more significantly, it will not require
you to resist with your footing and this means that the footing can be designed to withstand
solely axial loads.
For this project, a 375 mm wide x 610 mm deep reinforced concrete ground beam was provided
at the top of the footing level, connecting all the columns. The column base with the most critical
bending moment was selected and designed which equals MX= -102.240(kip ft).

6.9.5 FOUNDATION DESIGN
Pad foundations are a type of spread foundation that is made up of rectangular, square, or
sometimes circular concrete 'pads' that bear concentrated single-point loads such as concrete
structural columns, groups of columns, or framed structures. The pad then distributes this weight
to the bearing layer of earth or rock beneath. Pad foundations can be utilized to support the
building's ground beams as well.
In this project, the pad foundation was designed to effectively spread the concentrated force into
a bearing stratum. They are a popular design solution as they are generally cost-effective and are
relatively easy to design and construct, and are suitable for most subsoils. Pad foundations must
be either sufficiently deep (enabling the pressure of the load to stretch out at a pre-defined angle)
or constructed with suitable reinforcement in order to spread the weight into the soil. There are
two things that affect the angle of the load's spread: how much soil can hold and how strong
concrete is.
Note: Ground beams were designed and positioned to take the moments that would otherwise
have been directed to the footings, whereas the footings were designed to support just gravity
loads. For more information, please see the ground beam section.
Soil properties assumed for this project is as follows:
 Soil allowable bearing pressure 3’ (900mm) below ground level 6000 psf
 Soil unit weight 100 pcf
 Angle of soil internal friction 35 degrees
Procedure taken to design Isolated pad footing
01. Determine the size of the footing by considering the allowable bearing pressure and service
load.
02. Determine the bearing pressure for maximum loads.
03. Examine the vertical line shear (shear at face of the column)
04. Examine for punching shears
05. Determine bending reinforcement.

85 | P a g e
06. Examine shear in a key part
Microsoft Excel was used to create the isolated pad footing design. Once the model was created,
the location of the critical footing with the largest reactions was located, and its values were used
to design the footing. To make things easier, the footings were divided into three categories:
Footing 1 (F1), Footing 2 (F2), and Footing 3 (F3), with each footing having a different
dimension and reinforcing. F1: 1700 mm square, F2: 1375 mm square, and F3: 11000 mm
square, depending on their location in the structure and the forces acting on the column. The
beams are made to meet the Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-
08/14) and its Commentary.
For this design, a reinforced concrete pad footings-based foundation system was chosen because
it was one of the better possibilities given the predicted soil qualities. According to (M. Nadim
Hassoun, Akthem Al-Manaseer, Structural Concrete Theory and Design, Sixth Edition), "correct
footing design needs that."
1. The load capacity of the soil is not exceeded.
2. Excessive settlement, differential settlement, or rotations are avoided.
3. Adequate safety against sliding and/or overturning is maintained.
4. Bending moment and steel reinforcement required.
5. Bearing capacity of columns at their base and dowel requirements.
6. Development length of bars.
7. Differential settlement.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Stormwater drainage design is a vital part of both the site's and the stormwater management
system's overall design. A good drainage design should aim to preserve compliance with current
drainage patterns, reduce flooding of land, structures, and roadways during design flood events,
and minimize potential environmental impacts from stormwater runoff. Stormwater collecting
systems must be designed to achieve other stormwater management goals such as water quality,
streambank channel preservation, habitat protection, and groundwater recharge while also
providing appropriate surface drainage.
2.0 LOCATION
This drainage report was done for the Ministry of Works and Transport's Drainage Division on
behalf of the client / developer of Ample apartments, hereby referred to as the "site," which is
located on Ramlal Street Aranguez, San Juan, Trinidad and Tobago, Lot #6. This report details
the processes used to design the site's proposed drainage system and includes an associated
calculation package.
2.1 DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The property is bordered on the north, west, and east by neighbouring properties, with the access
road and existing drain on the southern side.
The site has an area of around 1276.4044 square meters. Its primary use will be as a residential
structure with six apartments, a convenience shop, and abundant parking. To the north, west, and
east, the area is surrounded by existing single- and multi-family dwellings. Natural grasses cover
the site, which is underlain by silty clay. The site is free of irrigation ditches and canals.
3.0 INTENT
The drainage system will contain all the components necessary to provide appropriate drainage
of the substructure and may include open canals, closed ditches with pipe drains, and stormwater
drainage pipes, channels, and culverts. Where the terrain or water flow has changed (e.g., where
streams have been redirected), the drainage system must be planned with special attention.
Overloading can cause a lot of damage in the form of erosion and landslides, which can cause a
lot of damage.
3|Page
The goal of this study is to figure out the main drainage flows that would affect the site and to
build the storm runoff structures that Trinidad and Tobago needs. Grading outlines, the general
location and kind of hydraulic structures will be stated in combination with the final drainage
study contained within this report; to that end, the following outline was followed.
4.0 CHECKLIST FOR PLANNING AND DESIGNING DRAINAGE

The following are techniques used in designing drainage systems for the proposed construction
site.
(1) Perform a topographical analysis.
a) Examine the drainage pattern away from the site. Where does the water enter the site? Where
is the water draining from the site?
b) Examine the site's geography for runoff and storage, as well as infiltration.
 Identify the pattern of runoff; high spots, ridges, valleys, streams, and swales. Where
does the water flow?
 Overlay the grading plan and denote the watershed areas; calculate the square footage
(acreage), concentration spots, and low points, among other things.
c) Conduct a thorough examination of potential drainage outlets and techniques.
 On-location (structural control, receiving water)

 Extraneous (roadway, receiving water, storm drain, regional control)
 Natural drainage system (if any)
 Current drainage system (drain pipe) installation
(2) Conduct an examination of the other site conditions.
 Physical impediments and land use such as paths, roadways, parking, patios, landscape
edging, fencing, grassed space, manicured areas, and tree roots
 The soil type dictates the amount of water that the soil can absorb.
 The amount of slope that can be maintained without eroding is determined by vegetative
cover.
4|Page
(3) Conduct a site analysis to determine the best location for drainage structures and facilities.
(4) Identify the drainage system elements that are necessary in terms of type and size. Develop
the drainage system and ensure that it is integrated into the overall rainwater management system
and plan.
5.0 CRITERIA
The Rational approach was used to compute the peak runoff quantities. The Rational Method
expresses a link between rainfall intensity and catchment area as independent factors and the
rainfall-induced peak flood flow as the dependent variable. It has been in use for more than 150
years and has been referred to as the Rational Method for almost 100 of those years.
Although many have assumed a basic triangular hydrograph for design, the Rational Method
should be utilized purely for peak flow estimation. This is the case when the storm period chosen
corresponds to the catchment's time of concentration.
Rational Equation: Q=ciA
The Rational equation requires the following units:
Q = Peak discharge, cfs
c = Rational method runoff coefficient
i = Rainfall intensity, inch/hour
A = Drainage area, sq ft /m2
Note:
The Rational method runoff coefficient (c) is a function of the soil type and drainage basin slope.
Typically, the Rainfall Intensity (i) is determined using the Intensity/Duration/Frequency curves
for precipitation events occurring in the geographical region of interest.
5|Page
6.0 DRAINAGE DESIGN
For this site's drainage design, a simple but effective approach was taken in which the
site/catchment area was divided into sections that used a 5% sloped to the east and west sides,
respectively, where drains were designed on either side to collect water from the various
catchment areas and channel it to the main exiting drain located on the southern side of the
property by the roadway.
The variables listed below were considered when designing the drainage system for this project.
c = Rational method runoff coefficient
Figure 1 Simplified Table of Rational Method Runoff Coefficients
6|Page
i = Rainfall intensity, inch/hour
Intensity for this project is taking as 6in/hr, as indicated in the chart above as the mean intensity.
A = Drainage area, sq ft /m2
The catchment area, referred to as the site, was separated into sections for this project.
 Area A (east) roof = 127.06m2

 Area A (west) roof = 90.39m2
 Area B (west) lower roof = 13.70m2
 Area C (east) yard = 286.56m2
 Area D (east) yard = 280.48m2
 Area E (west) yard = 292.87m2
 Area F (west) yard = 158.00m2
7|Page
Figure 2 below show the site catchment layout:
Figure 2 Site Catchment Layout
8|Page
Total Peak discharge was computed for the west and east catchment areas using the Rational
Equation: Q=ciA.
 Total peak discharge (Q) for East = 0.94 cf/sec = (26.62 liters/sec)
 Total peak discharge (Q) for West= 0.75 cf/sec = (21.24 liters/sec)
Design of box drain section;
East box drain was designed with a 12inches (300mm) water flow depth (y) and a 1:200 channel
slope (s) (0.005%). Manning's coefficient of determination (n) was (0.013) for the mortar cement
finish.
West box drain was designed with a 11inches (280mm) water flow depth (y) and a 1:200 channel
slope (s) (0.005%). Manning's coefficient of determination (n) was (0.013) for the mortar cement
finish.
https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/open-channel-flow: was used to calculate, Cross-

sectional area (A), Wetted perimeter (P), Hydraulic radius (R), Freeboard (F) and a Volumetric
flow rate (Q) for the required cross section.

1.0 Introduction
This section is used to describe the environmental impact analysis for the conceptual approach of
a three-story residential building consisting of six apartments, a convenience store with sufficient
car parks to be located at Ramlal Street, Aranguez. This environmental report identifies the effects
this project would have on its surroundings, nearby surroundings, as well as the possible mitigation
measures for during and post construction that would need to be considered. Since all
developments produce some form of environmental impact and the country needs development, a
range or balance needs to be determined as to what is an acceptable amount under the given
circumstances.
2.0 Project Objective
The aim of this project is to design and perform structural analysis for a three-story apartment
building, to be situated in Ramlal Street Aranguez, San Juan. The details of the superstructure are
to be determined by using analysis from computer software and manual calculations to allow the
structure to have ultimate strength and serviceability in order to resist overturning, sliding and
buckling. This project will also determine the orientation of the structure, location, and materials
to be used.

3.0 Site Description
Ramlal Street, Aranguez was chosen as the location of the three-story apartment building since it
is in close proximity to amenities such as schools, public transportation, banks, restaurants,
playgrounds, healthcare facilities, and much more amenities. The site is made up of Lithology –
Silty Clay Alluvium, this gives the site a low susceptibility to landslides and moderate flooding
risk zone. Location of the site is in a highly populated area, so therefore the possibilities of air,
water and noise pollution is very likely to affect the surroundings and nearby surroundings. The
structure proposed sits within an approximated plot of 27554 x 46069mm, but only occupies an
approximated area of the land 27499 x 24207mm.

Figure 2: Extracted information about the soil type in the area from the Trinidad soils map. [1]
The predominant soil type in the area as shown in Figure 2 above is Silty Clay Alluvium – Deep
alluvial soils with restricted internal drainage, A4.
Figure 3: Landslide susceptibility map identifying the location of the proposed site, Trinidad. [1]
As shown in Figure 3 above, the proposed site has low – moderate landslide susceptibility.

Figure 4: Flood multi risk map identifying the location of the proposed site, Trinidad. [1]
The proposed area identified in Figure 4 above, shows that there are very low – moderate risk of
flooding.
6|Page
4.0 Legislative Framework
Noise pollution from generators, air pollution from cutting materials, and waste removal are some
of the activities that come under the Environmental Management Authority Act during and after
the construction of the three-story apartment complex. A Certificate of Environmental Clearance
(CEC), would be necessary in these conditions and at this stage of the project's development for
the EMA to accept the proposal.
5.0 Geotechnical
Given that the soil is made up of Lithology – Silty Clay Alluvium the following was assumed; soil
allowable bearing pressure at 3’ (900mm) below ground level is equal to 6,000 psf, soil unit weight
100 pcf and angle of soil internal friction 35 degrees.
6.0 Methodology for Environmental Assessment
• Site visits and maps were used to gather primary data about the location.
• The study's legislative framework was gained through consultations from Trinidad and
Tobago's Environmental Management Authority.
• Using historical data, we found past environmental challenges in the area.
• During the scoping phase, existing impacts were studied and discussed.
• Stakeholder meetings took place in the open. The perspectives of local residents were taken
into account.
• Mitigation solutions were offered for each impact of during and post construction phases
of the project.

8.0 Environmental Impacts During Construction
Any activity during construction works can alter the environment or cause environmental
disturbances. These would then have an effect which leads to an environmental impact which can
be either positive or negative. These activities can impact different facets of the environment which
are; physical/chemical environment, biological environment, human social and cultural aspects,
and socioeconomics. Upon constructing the three-story apartment building at Ramlal Street,
Aranguez, there would be positive and negative impacts to the environment. Potential negative
impacts associated with project are as follows;
8.1 Biological
Clearing of the site for construction as of ‘Step 1’ in the construction methodology, would result
in the loss of the habitat’s flora and fauna species and biodiversity reduction. This would increase
surface runoff which would result in flooding.
8.2 Air pollution
In Steps 4, 8,10, 14, 17, 21, and 24 of the construction methodology, would be responsible for dust
emissions from excavations, concrete pour and vehicle movement on site. This would provide the
surroundings with air pollution which is harmful to anyone in constant contact. This can also
damage the surrounding vegetation and exposed private property.
Change in the soil characteristics by the process of compaction during the preparation of the
foundation as well as the movement of heavy vehicles (trucks, excavators, etc.) can reduce the
soil's percolative ability and thereby increase surface runoff.
12 | P a g e
8.3 Noise pollution
Noise pollution would be provided from various equipment as well as the construction process on
site would be disturbing to the nearby surroundings. The acceptable noise level for a construction
site from the federal occupational safety and health administration (OSHA) is said to be 90 dBA
at an average of eight-hour. Some noise pollution generated on site are;
Table 1: The noise limit in decibels for each equipment being used during construction [4], [5]
Tools Noise Level (dBA)
Cutting Equipment 94.9 - 122.8
Hand powered Tools 95.4 - 118.3
Rotohammer 97.8 - 113.5
Equipment Noise Level (dB)
Backhoe 85 - 95
Front-end Loader 90 - 95
Tractor 95 - 105
8.4 Soil pollution
During construction, surface runoff would contribute to water and soil pollution from chemicals
used as well as the improper disposal of waste.
8.5 Vehicular traffic
Site location is on a side street close to the main road therefore, the width of the road is smaller
hence with the turning of trucks and equipment would be the cause of traffic. Therefore, proper
13 | P a g e
signage needs to be installed on the main road and in addition, during operation, the design would
allocate drop off and pick up areas with identifiers.
9.0 Environmental Impacts Post Construction
9.1 Biological and drainage
Clearing of the site for construction would result in the loss of the habitat’s flora and fauna species
and biodiversity reduction. This would change the surface’s ‘O horizon’ or ‘A horizon’, natural
drainage and hydrology which would result in many types of flooding.
Increase in traffic due to the development of this new structure since the road areas are not updated
to sustain the capacity of traffic flow in the area. Allocation for any required compensation for
damages that may occur to resident’s properties and health during the construction process.
10.0 Social Impacts During Construction
10.1 Noise pollution
In Steps 4, 8,10, 14, 17, 21, and 24 of the construction methodology, would be responsible for
noise pollution caused by various heavy equipment as well as the construction processes on site
can be disturbing to the surroundings and nearby surroundings.
The site location is on a side street close to the main road therefore, the width of the road is smaller
and hence, with the turning of trucks and heavy equipment would potentially be the cause of traffic
in the area. Therefore, proper traffic and construction caution signage needs to be installed on the
14 | P a g e
main road so that every traffic can be aware and cautious. Additionally, during construction of the
building, there will be allocated drop off and pick up areas with identifiers.
11.0 Social Impacts Post Construction
Increase in traffic due to the new structure, this may lead to increased traffic jams and hazards
since the road areas are not updated to sustain the capacity. This is very common for almost every
new structure in Trinidad and Tobago since roads are not being updated to compensate for new
building developments.

13.0 Mitigation Measures During Construction
13.1 Natural Vegetation
Clearing of the vegetation only in construction areas and demarcating areas where no clearing will
happen.
13.2 Soil Surface and drainage
Changes in surface and sub-surface hydrology during construction will require proper drainage
designs in appropriate areas where surface flow is suitably drained into public drains in order to
control flooding on site. The channels should be covered with gratings in order to prevent materials
and pollutants from entering that would avert the flow run-off.
13.3 Air Pollution
Air pollution on site would be prevented from rising by sprinkling water on the soils, designated
truck paths, erection of a temporary enclosure due to the close proximity of residential homes,
enclosing the structure under construction with dust proof nets and offloading material would
reduce the quantity of dust particles in the atmosphere, as well as providing workers with the
proper personal protective equipment (PPE). A designated offload area for gravel and sand will
also be covered with suitable mats or materials to eliminate the rise of dust particles in the area.
Generation of noise could be controlled by providing workers with PPE against noise, using
equipment with noise suppression technologies, use of heavy equipment during specified times
and placing of signs to make the public aware. The same mitigation method for air pollution during
its construction phase would be applied for this impact. When the three-story apartment building
is being occupied, its residents are to keep within a respectable noise limit at all times Speed
17 | P a g e
barriers to be installed to reduce noise from motor vehicles and any equipment needed to operate
the building should produce low noise.
13.5 Waste pollution
Generation of waste would be mitigated with several waste bins being placed throughout the site,
making suitable facilities for segregation and safe disposal of the waste. Additionally, ensuring all
waste are dumped in their designated areas through legally acceptable methods where the bins are
regularly cleared and disinfected. (Need to talk about disposal of toxic wastes)
13.6 Human social and economic
Any variations in traffic flow should be communicated to nearby residents prior to construction.
At all stages of the project, proper public consultation is required. To avoid accidents and other
problems, all personnel on site must follow proper HSE policies. When constructing the
development, ensure that nearby properties are taken into consideration.
13.7 Biological
To assure that microorganisms continue to grow during the construction process, all sources of
pollution should be controlled.
18 | P a g e
14.0 Mitigation Measures After Construction
To keep within a respectable noise limit at all times, speed bumps to be installed to reduce noise
from motor vehicles and any equipment needed to operate the building should produce low noise.
If residents are hosting gatherings, they should adhere to noise restrictions and warn their
neighbors. Any generators or equipment used in the building should be low noise equipment that
falls within the acceptable noise limit.
14.2 Air pollution
Ensure long-term monitoring of waste and sewage sludge plants for gas emissions such as methane
14.3 Soil Surface and drainage
Maintain a continual examination of soil in locations where equipment is present to ensure the
building's long-term functionality. This can ensure that no spillage of oil or toxic chemicals from
these equipment does not contaminate the soil or even drainage.
14.4 Waste pollution
The waste water would be treated to Environmental Management Authority (EMA) standard prior
to being released into the environment. Also, the Trinidad and Tobago Solid Waste Management
Company (SWMCOL) disposal bin would be placed near the building for the residents to dispose
of their solid waste.
14.5 Human economic and social
All drainage and other facilities should be properly maintained to ensure no danger or harmful
impacts to the residents. If necessary, a traffic control plan can be created.
19 | P a g e
14.6 Biological
Land vegetation or green spaces should continuously be monitored and maintained.
15.0 Conclusion
A residential building should strive to enhance all elements of the environment on a constant basis.
Once completed, the construction of such a structure on Ramlal Street in Aranguez can serve to
generate long-term good environmental and socioeconomic benefits. Furthermore, during the
construction period, negative effects (both environmental and social) may occur. Prior to
development, a completely comprehensive Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) with
adequate public participation and a mitigation plan can be created to reduce these effects.
