1 INTRODUCTION
Introduction
The basic aim of the structural design is to build a structure, which is safe, fulfilling the
intended purpose during its estimated life span, economical in terms of initial and
maintenance cost, durable and also maintaining a good aesthetic appearance.
A building is considered to be structurally sound, if the individual elements and the building
as a whole satisfy the criteria for strength, stability and serviceability and in seismic areas
additional criteria for ductility and energy absorption capabilities. The overall building must
be strong enough to transfer all loads through the structure to the ground without collapsing
or losing structural integrity by rupture of the material at the critical sections, by
transformation of the whole or parts into mechanisms or by instability.

Functional, Aesthetic and cost requirement


The designed building will be used for residential purpose. As per the client’s need it will be
used on rental basis by the occupants. This building is designed as a five storied building.

9’5”. The building is laid out on a rectangular grid pattern with a maximum span of 25’ c/c in
X-direction and 19’4” in Y-direction. The thickness of peripheral, internal and partition walls
are 9”, 9” and 4 ½” respectively.

Building Performance objective


In any earthquake resistant building, particularly, their main elements need to be built with
required degree of ductility. Such buildings have the ability to sway back-and-forth during an
earthquake and to withstand the earthquake effects with only minor damage but without
collapse.
1. Structure should remain essentially elastic in frequent minor ground shaking.
2. Structure should be able to resist occasional moderate ground shaking without
significant damage.
3. Structure should be able to resist major earthquakes without collapse.
As per client requirement the performance level of building for its life time should be with in
life safety limit level at the design earthquake of MMI IX shaking. The overall performance of
the building is considered likely to suffer moderate Structural damage at MMI IX intensity
of earthquake with possibility of cracks in columns and beams, joints of frames at the base
and at joints of coupled walls, spalling of concrete cover, buckling of reinforced bars, large
cracks in partition and infill walls and failure of individual infill panels.
For this building ductility and overstrength factors is taken as follows for ductile moment-
resisting frame as per NBC 105: 2020 (Table 5.2).

Special Requirement of Geotechnical Investigation,


Material Test
If the soil type is medium regular methods of foundation construction shall be applied as in
this building. Nevertheless, it would be wise to tie the foundations with foundation beams to
minimize possible differential settlement in near future due to imminent condition.
For this building the category of soil as per NBC 105: 2020 (cl. 4.1.3.4 Table 4.4) is:
Site Soil Category
Soil Type Soil type D (For
Kathmandu valley)

Preliminary Design Concept of Structural System


For the analysis, dead load is necessary which depends upon the size of member itself. So it
is necessary to pre-assume logical size of member which will neither overestimate the load
nor under estimate the stiffness of the building. So, the tentative sizes of the structural
elements are determined through the preliminary design so that the pre-assumed
dimensions may not deviate considerably after analysis thus making the final design both
safe and economical. Tentative sizes of various elements have been determined as follows:
Slab:
Preliminary design of slab is done as per the deflection criteria as directed by code Clause
23.2.1 of [IS 456: 2000]. The cover provided is 20 mm and the grade of concrete used in the
design is M20.
According to which,
Span ≤ (Mft x Mfc) x Basic Value
Eff. Depth
Where, the critical span is selected which is the maximum shorter span among the all slab
element. This is done to make uniformity in slab thickness. The amount of reinforcement will
be varied slab to slab but the thickness will be adopted corresponding to the entire slab.
Beam:
Preliminary design of the beam is done as per the deflection criteria as directed by code
Clause 23.2.1 of [IS 456: 2000]. The cover provided is 30 mm and the grade of concrete
used in the design is M20.
According to which,
Span ≤ (Mft x Mfc) x Basic Value x Correction Factor

Eff. Depth for span x Correction Factor for Flange


But,

According to Ductility code, Spacing of Stirrups in beam should not exceed d/4 or 8 times
diameter of minimum size of bar adopted and should not be less than 100 mm. So, for
considering construction difficulties in actual field, it is logical to use d/4 as spacing as per
the construction practice in Nepal.
Column:
Preliminary design of column is done from the assessment of approximate factored gravity loads
and live loads coming up to the critical section. To compensate the possible eccentric loading
and earthquake loads the size is increased by about 25% in design. For the load acting in the
column, live load is decreased according to IS 875: 1978. Initially a rectangular column is
adopted in this building project so as to provide internal aesthetics required from architecture

Structural Analysis and Design Reports of Residential building of Mr. Bhaskar Raj Joshi

point of view but the column size and shape will vary as per the requirement for the analysis,
design and aesthetic value. The cover provided is 40 mm and the grade of concrete used in
the column design is M20.
Slab:
Span of slab = 3.63m
Percentage of steel = 0.1 % (assume)
From Clause 23.2.1 of [IS 456: 2000]
Using deflection criteria for combination of continuous and simply supported slab,
= Mft x basic value

Where,
Basic value = 26
Mft = 1.8 for 0.1 % tension steel
Therefore,
d =2370/(26 x 1.8) = 50.7 mm
Adopt,
Effective depth d = 105 mm
Overall depth D = 105+ 20 = 125 mm
Beam:
Effective length of beam = 4.572 m
Assuming percentage of steel = 2 %
Now,
Span ≤ (Mft x Mfc) x Basic Value x Correction Factor
Eff. Depth for span x Correction Factor for Flange
Where,
Mft = 0.7
Mfc = 1.25 for 1% steel
Correction factor for span = 1
Correction factor for flange = 1
Therefore,
d =4572/ (0.7 x 1.25 x 26) = 201 mm
Adopt
Effective depth d = 310mm
Overall depth D = 350 mm
Width of beam b = 230 mm
Similarly, from the total weight of building, the tentative size of columns is assumed to make
the finite element model.

Deflection criteria as directed by code Clause 23.2.1 of [IS 456: 2000] and ductility criteria of ACI
code. The cover provided is 30 mm and the grade of concrete used in the design is M20.
According to which,
Span ≤ (Mft x Mfc) x Basic Value x Correction Factor
Eff. Depth for span x Correction Factor for Flange
Lateral drift
The deformation of the buildings is also determined and found that the drift limit is
compliance with the provision of NBC 105. According to NBC 105, the ratio of the inter-
storey deflection to the corresponding storey height shall not exceed 0.010 nor shall the
inter-storey deflection exceed 60 mm.
Crack control
Concrete is weak in tension and hence cracks when subjected to flexure, as flexure results
in tensile forces in the bottom fibers (assuming loads are applied on top-when load is
reversed, the tension will be at top) and also compression in top fibers, above NA. Hence we
check for crack widths, for durability as well as in cases where excessive crack widths are
not permitted. The surface width of the cracks should not, in general, exceed 0.3 mm in
members. As per IS 456 Annex F, the crack width is calculated.
Foundation settlement
Foundation settlement may be caused by some or a combination of the following reasons:
Elastic compression of the foundation and the underlying soil.
Inelastic (or plastic) compression of the underlying soils, which is much larger than
the elastic compression. The inelastic compression can be predicted by the theory of
consolidation.
Ground water lowering: Repeated lowering and raising of water level in loose
granular soil tends to compact the soil and cause settlement of the ground surface.
Vibrations due to pile driving, blasting and oscillating machineries may cause
settlement in deposits of granular soils.
Seasonal swelling and shrinkage of expansive clays.
Ground movement on earth slopes, such as surface erosion, slow creep or landslide.
Permanent deformation allowed
The deformation of the buildings is also determined and found that the drift limit is
compliance with the provision of NBC 105.

Calculation of loads
Load calculation is done using the NBC 102:1994 as reference. At first type of material is
selected and value of unit weight of the materials is taken from the above mentioned code.
Thickness of the material is selected as per the design requirement. Knowing area,
thickness and unit weight of materials, loads on each section is found.
The following are assumed for detail load calculation.
R.C.C Slab, Beam and Column = 25.0 KN/m3
Screed (25mm thick) = 19.2 KN/m3
Cement Plaster (20mm thick) = 20.40 KN/m3
Marble Dressed = 26.50 KN/m3

9
Structural Analysis and Design Reports of Residential building of Mr. Bhaskar Raj Joshi

Brick = 19.2 KN/m3


Dead loads
Floor Finish:
Floor Finish Load is calculated as Simple Marble Finishes. With load calculation
Depth of Finishes = 1.5” = 0.0375 m
Unit weight of Marble = 26.5 KN/m3
Weight per Square meter = 0.0375 * 26.5 = 0.994 KN/m2 (Assume 1.1 KN/m2)

Live loads
Live load for the floor and roof is taken from IS 875 part 2 as referred by National building
code. For residential Building, Following load has be taken (Table 1, IS 875 Part 2)
All rooms and kitchens- 2 KN/m2
Toilet and bath rooms- 2 KN/m2
Corridors, passages, staircases including tire escapes and storerooms- 3 KN/m2
Balconies- 3 KN/m2
For Roof Load, Table 2 of IS 875 part 2 has been taken for the estimation. Flat,
sloping or curved roof with slopes up to and including 10 degrees
Access provided- 1.5 KN/m2
Access not provided except for maintenance- 0.75 KN/m2
Seismic loads
Lateral loads on the building frames are caused primarily by wind pressure. In addition;
earthquake shocks produce horizontal sway, which results in inertia forces acting
horizontally on the structure. But in a seismically active area like Nepal and particularly in RC
frame buildings wind load is not so vital so, only the lateral load due to earthquake shock is
considered in this case. For the analysis and design of earthquake action following method
has been applied in this building.
a) The seismic co-efficient method
Following calculations have been made to estimate the total base shear in the
buildings:

Load cases and combinations


Load Cases
Load cases are the independent loadings for which the structure is explicitly analyzed.
Earthquake forces occur in random fashion in all directions. For buildings whose lateral load
resisting elements are oriented in two principal directions, it is usually sufficient to analyze in
these two principal directions (X – and Y – direction) separately one at a time with 30 % of other
due to one face doesn’t lies on orthogonal . Thus, the load cases adopted are as follows:

11
Structural Analysis and Design Reports of Residential building of Mr. Bhaskar Raj Joshi

i. Dead Load (DL)


ii. Live Load (LL)
iii. EQx
iv. EQy
Load Combinations
Load combinations are the loadings formed by the linear combination of the independent
loading conditions. The different load cases have been combined as per NBC 105: 2020.
Earthquake load in ultimate limit state has been taken for design of the building. The load
combinations are as follows:
i. 1.2 DL + 1.5 LL
ii. DL + 0.3 LL +- EQ (+X)
iii. DL + 0.3 LL +- EQ (-X)
iv. DL + 0.3 LL +- EQ (+Y)
v. DL + 0.3 LL +- EQ (-Y)

The FE model of building is developed in ETABS v16.2.1, a general purpose FE analysis
and design software. The size of beams and columns as obtained from preliminary analysis
are adjusted according to architectural need. Beam and columns are modeled as frame
element. Slabs are also modeled as shell element.

17
Structural Analysis and Design Reports of Residential building of Mr. Bhaskar Raj Joshi

Beam and column are assumed to be line element having six degree of freedom at each node
and slab is assumed to be shell element having six degree of freedom at each node. Floor
diaphragm is used in the structure to reduce degree of freedom to three for each floor level.
Imposed loads have been modeled as uniform distributed loads. Similarly, wall loads are
modeled as uniformly distributed line loads. The columns and walls were “fixed” at their
base. The beam-column joints were modeled as rigid.
The 3D model is assumed to be fixed at tie beam level. Suitable assumptions are made and
FE model as shown in Figure 8 is developed.

5 Design of Structural Members


Design of slab
The slabs are kept in such a way that ly/lx is kept less than 2 such that it can be designed as
two way slab. The slab is designed manually on excel sheet based on IS 456:2000 and is
presented below. Where, type of panel 4 indicates that the 2 adjacent edges are
discontinuous and 2 indicate that the one shorter edge is discontinuous. Similarly other slab
were also analyzed and designed as per IS 456:2000.

Design of foundation
The foundations used in the building are of isolated and combined type as per the requirements.
The depth of the footing is governed by one way and two way shear (punching shear).The soil
type is assumed to be of medium type. So the allowable bearing capacity of soil is assumed to
be 150 KN/m2. The dimension of footing has been fixed based on manual preliminary
calculation and checked for soil pressure in SAFE 2016. Joint Reaction is given in below:

7 CONCLUDING REMARKS
Reinforced concrete construction is common all over the world. It is used extensively for
construction of variety of structures such as buildings, bridges, dams, water tanks, stadium,
towers, chimneys, tunnels and so on.
Experiences from past earthquakes and extensive laboratory works have shown that a well-
designed and detailed reinforced concrete structure is suitable for earthquake resistant structure.

29
Structural Analysis and Design Reports of Residential building of Mr. Bhaskar Raj Joshi

Ductility and strength required to resist major earthquake can be achieved by following the
recommendations made in the standard codes of practice for earthquake resistant design.
Detailing of steel reinforcement is an important aspect of structural design. Poor reinforcement
detailing can lead to structural failures. Detailing plays an important role in seismic resistant
design. In seismic resistant design, actual forces experienced by the structure are reduced and
reliance is placed on the ductility of the structure. And, ductility can be achieved by proper
detailing only. Thus, in addition to design, attention should be paid on amount, location and
arrangement of reinforcement to achieve ductility as well as strength.
Design and construction of the structure are inter – related jobs. A building behaves in a manner
how it has been built rather than what the intensions is during designing. A large percentage of
structural failures are attributed due to poor quality of construction. Therefore, quality assurance
is needed in both design and construction.
In earthquake resistant construction quality of materials and workmanship plays a very
important role. It has been observed that damages during earthquakes are largely dependent on
the quality and workmanship. Hence, quality assurance is the most important factor in the good
seismic behavior of the structure.
