Provide D = 230 mm , Clear Cover = 50 mm, Dia of Bar = 16 mm

d​eff​ = 230 - 50 - 16/2 = 172 mm

A​st​ = M/σ​st​jd = 1842.20 mm​2

Horizontal moments at the corner in long and short wall produce unbalanced moment at

the joint. This unbalanced moment has to be distributed to get balanced moment using

moment distribution method.

K​ac​ = 4EI/L = 4EI/9.29 , K​ab​ = 4EI/L = 4EI/3.715

ΣK = 4EI/2.65

DF​ac​ = 0.29, DF​ab​ = 0.71

Member AC AB

DF 0.29 0.71

Final Moment -24.0167 24.0167


Net bending moment (M’) = M - Tx

Where, x = d - D/2 = 172 - 230/2 = 57 mm

M’ = 24.0167 - (49.83*0.057) = 21.18 kN-m

A​st1​ = M’/σ​st​jd = 943.60 mm​2

A​st2​ = T/σ​st​ = 332.2 mm​2

A​st​ = A​st1​ + A​st2​ = 1,275.8 mm​2

Spacing of 16 mm Ф bars required = 157.55 mm

Provide 16 mm Ф bars @ 150 mm c/c (At Corners) - No need as we are already


providing (12 mm @ 200 mm at corners which is overlapping 3 times giving A​st​ = 3*565
mm​2​ = 1695 mm​2​, Which is sufficient for corner moment)

Design of Base slab of Phytorid Bed:

Load of Stored Water + Filter Media upto 2.5m = (14.5kN/m​3​)*(2.5m)*(36.32m)*(6.51m)


= 8571.07 kN

Walls Load = (25kN/m​3​)*[8*(2.2*3.255*0.15) + 6*(2.2*3.255*0.23) + (36.01*2.83*0.23) +


3*(6.74*2.83*0.23) + 2*(37.7*2.83*0.23)] = 2,603.83 kN

Dead Load of Foundation = (25 kN/m​3​)*(0.25 m)*(38.3 m)*(7.8 m) = 1,867.13 kN

Total Load (w) = 13042.03 kN

Safe Bearing Capacity of Soil = 50 kN/m​2

Area of Foundation Required = 13042.03 kN/50 m​2​ = 260.84 m​2

Proposed Size of Foundation = 38.3 m X 7.8 m = 298.74 m​2

∴ Extending 0.3 m from the outer side of wall

Soil Pressure (q) = (13042.03 kN)/(298.74 m​2​) = 43.65 kN/m​2

Considering 1 m width of raft slab

Bending Moment = (43.65 kN/m​2​)*(0.3 m)​2​/2 = 1.97 kN-m

D​eff, req​ = √M/Qb = 34.55 mm, say 40 mm

Clear cover on inner face = 50 mm, Clear cover on outer face = 50 mm

D​req​ = 40+50+16/2 = 98 mm

Provide D = 200 mm, Clear Cover = 50 mm, Dia of Bar = 16 mm

[∴ As per cl. 4.8 IS 1080 the minimum thickness for base slab with no reinforcement is
150 mm. Since we are providing reinforcement and load is heavy beneath the walls
provide a base slab of 250 mm thickness]

d​eff​ = 200 - 50 - 16/2 = 142 mm

A​st​ = M/σ​st​jd = 106.31 mm​2

Minimum positive reinforcement required = 0.3*1000*200/100 = 600 mm​2

Spacing of 16 mm Ф bars required for minimum reinforcement = 335 mm

Spacing of 12mm Ф bars required for minimum steel = 188.33 mm

Provide 12 mm Ф bars @ 150 mm c/c - (Bottom - Main bars - Bothways)

Distribution Steel A​st =
​ 0.24*1000*200/100 = 480 mm​

Spacing of 12 mm Ф bars required = 235.42 mm

Provide 12 mm Ф bars @ 200 mm c/c - (Top - Distribution bars - Bothways)

Design of Hanging walls for Phytorid Bed - ​No load is coming on the wall hence
minimum reinforcement 0.12% is provided with 8 mm Ф bars @ 200mm c/c on one side
in both directions.
