STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
The following considerations are made during the loading on the structural model:
• The loads distributed over the area are imposed on the area element and the
loads distributed over the length are imposed on the frame elements whenever
possible.
• Where such loading is not possible, equivalent conversion to different loading
distribution is carried to load the model near the real case as far as possible.
Dead loads are calculated on the basis of unit weights of the specified construction materials
in accordance with IS 875 part 1 1987. 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
Standard Brick = 19.2 KN/m3
Based on architectural drawing of the building, dead loads due to partition walls , floor finish
and other special purpose services has been calculated. Wall loads are applied on
underneath beam if wall is rested on the beam.
Live load for the floor and Roof is taken from IS 875 part 2 as referred by National building
code.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
The analysis and design have been carried out using software called ETABS v16.2, which
is a special purpose computer program developed specifically for building structures. It
provides the Structural Engineer with all the tools necessary to create, modify, analyze,
design, and optimize the structural elements in a building model. The building geometry
based on architectural drawings been generated using above named software. The dead
load, live load and lateral loads were supplied to the digital models as per standard code of
practices. Several analysis run were performed to achieve the best result to meet the design
and service requirements.
For the analysis, following loading parameters were considered:
i. Self-weight of the frames and slabs
ii. Floor finishing dead loads
iii. Fixed wall loads as per architectural drawings
iv. Partition wall loads as per architectural drawings only.
v. Live loads
2.1.1 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.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
2.1.2 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] and ductility criteria of ACI code. The cover provided is 30
mm and the grade of concrete used in the design is M25.
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 greater than 100mm. So, for
considering construction difficulties in actual field, it is logical to use d/4 as spacing as per
the construction practice in Nepal.
2.1.3 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 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 M25.

As per Cl. no. 7.11.1 of NBC 105:2020, the story drift in any story due to specified
design lateral force with partial load factor of 1.0, shall not exceed 0.025 times the story
height. From the analysis the displacements of the mass center of various floors are
obtained and are shown in along with story drift.
School Building P A G E | 35
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
It is seen that drift does not exceed the code prescribed value of 0.025 times story
height in ultimate limit state and 0.006 in serviceability limit state respectively. Thus the drift
check seems to comply with the safety value mentioned in the code.
As per Cl. no. 5.5.1.5 of NBC 105:2020, a difference of more than 50% between the
effective masses of two consecutive stories is considered as mass irregularity. Light roofs,
penthouse, and mezzanine floors need not be considered.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
The design of all structural elements is done using ‘Limit State Method’. All relevant Limit
State is considered in design to ensure adequate safety and serviceability. The design
includes design for durability, construction and use in service should be considered as a
whole. The realization of design objectives requires compliance with clearly defined
standards for materials, production, workmanship, and also maintenance and use of
structure in service.
This section includes all the design process of sample calculation for a single element as
column, beam, slab and foundation.
The footing is provided under RCC columns of a framed structure to distribute the load on
larger area. If condition of shear is satisfied, then the thickness of footing is reduced at the
edges for economy.
The bending moment, beam shear and punching shear govern the thickness or depth of the
footing near the column face.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT
Model Node = D3
1. DESIGN DATA
Service Axial Load (Pₐ) = 685 KN
Moment about X-axis = 0.00 KN-m
Moment about Y-axis = 0.00 KN-m
Size of Column A (bₐ x dₐ) = 400 mm x 400 mm
Grade of Concrete used (f𝒸ₖ) = 20.0 N/mm²
Grade of steel used (fᵧ) = 500 N/mm²
Bearing Capacity of Soil (SBC) = 130 KN/m²
2. LENGTH AND WIDTH OF FOOTING
Depth of footing required from Rankine's formula (D𝒻) = 0.90 m
Adopt depth of Footing (D𝒻) = 1.80 m
Factored Load on Column A= 1028 KN
Assuming 10 % of service load as self-weight of footing then,
Total load (Pᵤ)= 754 KN
Area of footing required (Aᵣₑ)= Pᵤ/SBC = 5.80 m²
Required Length of Footing (L𝒻) = 2.41 m
Required Width of Footing (B𝒻) = 2.41 m
Provided Length of Footing (L𝒻) = 2.45 m
Provided Width of Footing (B𝒻) = 2.45 m
Area of footing provided (Aₚ)= 6.00 m²
3. NET UPWARD SOIL PRESSURE INTENSITY(Factored)
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘₐₓ,ₓ) = 171.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘᵢₙ,,ₓ) = 171.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘₐₓ,ᵧ) = 171.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘᵢₙ,,ᵧ) = 171.2 KN/m²
∴ Since, SBC > σₘₐₓ and σₘᵢₙ > 0, so it is safe in bearing
4. DESIGN OF SLAB
Length of projection along X-axis (L) = 1.03 m
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₗ) = 171.2 KN/m²
Resisting width (b) = 700 mm
Maximum cantilever moment (Mₘₐₓ) = 220.31 KN-m
Limiting moment of resistance (Mᵤ,ₗᵢₘ)= 297 KN-m
∴ Since, Mᵤ,ₗᵢₘ > Mᵤ, hence it is designed as singly reinforced section.
From SP16, we know for Fe500, then depth from bending consideration,
∴Depth from bending moment consideration (d) =344 mm
For sloped footing, the depth is governed by bending moment rather than shear as resisting width for moment is
smaller than shear force.

It is assumed to possess adequate safety against collapse. The limit state method of design
of column is based on the behavior of structure at collapse ensuring adequate margin of

As per Cl. no. 7.11.1 of NBC 105, the story drift in any story due to specified design
lateral force with partial load factor of 1.0, shall not exceed 0.025 times the story height.
From the analysis the displacements of the mass center of various floors are obtained and

It is seen that drift does not exceed the code prescribed value of 0.025 times story
height in ultimate limit state and 0.006 in serviceability limit state respectively. Thus the drift
check seems to comply with the safety value mentioned in the code.
As per Cl. no. 5.5.1.5 of NBC 105:2020, a difference of more than 50% between the
effective masses of two consecutive stories is considered as mass irregularity. Light roofs,

The design of all structural elements is done using ‘Limit State Method’. All relevant Limit
State is considered in design to ensure adequate safety and serviceability. The design
includes design for durability, construction and use in service should be considered as a
whole. The realization of design objectives requires compliance with clearly defined
standards for materials, production, workmanship, and also maintenance and use of
structure in service.
This section includes all the design process of sample calculation for a single element as
column, beam, slab and foundation.
The footing is provided under RCC columns of a framed structure to distribute the load on
larger area. If condition of shear is satisfied, then the thickness of footing is reduced at the
edges for economy.

The bending moment, beam shear and punching shear govern the thickness or depth of the
footing near the column face.
Model Node = D3
1. DESIGN DATA
Service Axial Load (Pₐ) = 820 KN
Moment about X-axis = 0.00 KN-m
Moment about Y-axis = 0.00 KN-m
Size of Column A (bₐ x dₐ) = 400 mm x 400 mm
Grade of Concrete used (f𝒸ₖ) = 20.0 N/mm²
Grade of steel used (fᵧ) = 500 N/mm²
Bearing Capacity of Soil (SBC) = 130 KN/m²
2. LENGTH AND WIDTH OF FOOTING
Depth of footing required from Rankine's formula (D𝒻) = 0.90 m
Adopt depth of Footing (D𝒻) = 1.80 m
Factored Load on Column A= 1230 KN
Assuming 10 % of service load as self-weight of footing then,
Total load (Pᵤ)= 902 KN
Area of footing required (Aᵣₑ)= Pᵤ/SBC = 6.94 m²
Required Length of Footing (L𝒻) = 2.63 m
Required Width of Footing (B𝒻) = 2.63 m
Provided Length of Footing (L𝒻) = 2.65 m
Provided Width of Footing (B𝒻) = 2.65 m
Area of footing provided (Aₚ)= 7.02 m²
3. NET UPWARD SOIL PRESSURE INTENSITY(Factored)
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘₐₓ,ₓ) = 175.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘᵢₙ,,ₓ) = 175.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘₐₓ,ᵧ) = 175.2 KN/m²
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₘᵢₙ,,ᵧ) = 175.2 KN/m²
∴ Since, SBC > σₘₐₓ and σₘᵢₙ > 0, so it is safe in bearing
4. DESIGN OF SLAB
Length of projection along X-axis (L) = 1.13 m
Net Upward Soil Pressure (σₗ) = 175.2 KN/m²
Resisting width (b) = 700 mm
Maximum cantilever moment (Mₘₐₓ) = 293.72 KN-m
Limiting moment of resistance (Mᵤ,ₗᵢₘ)= 377 KN-m
∴ Since, Mᵤ,ₗᵢₘ > Mᵤ, hence it is designed as singly reinforced section.

The design of column section can be made either by working stress method or by the limit
state method. The working stress method of design of column is based on the behavior of
the structure at working load ensuring that the stress in concrete and steel do not exceed
their allowance values.
It is assumed to possess adequate safety against collapse. The limit state method of design
of column is based on the behavior of structure at collapse ensuring adequate margin of
safety. The serviceability limits of deflections and cracks are assumed to be satisfied as the
column being primarily a compression member has very small deflections and cracks.

Conclusion on overall, the design has covered all its objectives. The best possible efforts
have been made to produce an appropriate design. Yet, the designers do not guarantee the
perfectionism of the successively constructed structures. Design and construction of the
structure are inter – related jobs. A structure 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. 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. For instance, care should
be taken while detailing of corners of stairs such that the steel when pulled in tension
doesn’t tend to pull out the concrete over the reinforcement. Thus, in addition to design,
attention should be paid on amount, location and arrangement of reinforcement to achieve
ductility as well as strength.
Last but not least, this design does not supersede the application of sound engineering
judgment, professional experience and skills, and established code of practice and
guidelines. It does not refrain from using more appropriate and approved techniques and
necessary modifications incurred therefrom. The detailed design was carried out based on
the data available wherever possible and the assumptions referring to the codes and pieces
of literature where the investigation data is not available.
Nevertheless, it is not only a good design that is enough for good construction,
appropriate construction practice, quality control and strict adherence to the design are
equally important for completing construction work soundly. Strict quality control and due
consideration to the essence of detailed design are recommended.
The analysis and design were carried out using state-of-the-art analyses tools and
procedures with a special emphasis on the effects due to earthquakes. Under ultimate limit
state and serviceability limit state level of earthquakes as per NBC 105:2020, a linear
response spectrum analysis was performed scaled to static linear method.
Based on the analysis of the results, the performance of the building was assessed using
several response indicators such as natural periods, mode shapes, base shear, story drifts,
lateral displacements, and deformation and force capacities in ULS level.
The following conclusions can be drawn from this analysis:
