Group:
Design the house (slab, drop beam, tie beams and wall foundations) for the
attached drawings based on the following given data:

❖ The house consists of two stories, height of each story = 3.4m.

❖ Preliminary thickness of slab is 150mm.
❖ Size of drop beam, width = width of wall and height =
thickness of slab + 20cm.
❖ Size of tie beams above openings, width of wall x 40cm.
❖ Superimposed dead load and live load given in the attached
table.
❖ Use fc` = 28 MPa and fy = 420 MPa for all types of
reinforcement.
❖ Use clear cover of 20 mm for slab and 40 mm for beams and
foundations.
❖ Use steel bars 10 or 12mm for slab, 12 or 16mm for beams and
10, 12,16 for foundation.
❖ Live load = 1.5 kN/ m2 SIDL = 3.5 kN /m2
