Section 4

(b) Technical Design:

Our project constitutes of five major components:

 Controlled Farming Unit

 Fish Farming Unit
 Production & Administrative Unit
 Restaurant and Marketing Unit
 Separate Parking Facility

The engineering technologies that can be Required Technological Knowledge

adopted related to project are:
Name of Component
Controlled Farming Unit Concrete Structure with Glass Wall

Fish Farming Unit Concrete Structure with Brick Wall

Production & Administrative Unit Concrete Structure with Brick Wall

Restaurant and Marketing Unit Concrete Structure with Brick Wall

Separate Parking Facility Steel Shade with Solar Panel

Designing method of various components are conducted based on the provisions of BNBC 2020,
Chapter 2, Volume 2.
Regarding the Main building structure , we’ve selected the following provisions:
Occupancy Category: I
Importance Factor: 1
Seismic Zone: 2 (Moderate Risk, Z=0.20)
From SPT Value of Bore Hole 3, SPT < 15, (Undrained shear strength) < 70 , (Site Class: SD)
For Occupancy Category I, Seismic Zone 2, Site Class SD, seismic category of building is D

Possible structural system based on the a Height Limit

forementioned provision are shown below:
Seismic Force-Resisting System
MOMENT RESISTING FRAME (No Shear
Wall)
a) Special steel moment frames a) No Limit
b) Intermediate steel moment frames b) 35m
c) Special reinforced concrete moment c) No Limit
frames
DUAL SYSTEMS: INTERMEDIATE
MOMENT FRAMES CAPABLE OF
RESISTING AT LEAST 25% OF
PRESCRIBED SEISMIC FORCES (with
bracing or shear wall)
a) Special reinforced concrete shear walls a) 50m
