Notes

The document provides information on the design of reinforced concrete beams and slabs for a structure, including: - Specifying a concrete strength class of C35/45 based on an exposure condition of XC3 and Eurocode standards. - Recommending slab thicknesses of 100-150mm and using beam dimensions provided in AutoCAD plans. - Stating that the ground slab does not require design since loads are passed directly to the soil.

Specified concrete compressive strength depends on exposure conditions

Exposure conditions: XC3

EN 1992-1-1:200

4.4.1.2(5) Structural class: S4

Table 4.1 Class designation: XC3

Table 4.3N: Stength class C35/45

Desnity of concrete: 25kN/m3

Reinforced concrete design to Eurocode 2 Table 6.2

Beam dimensions

Nominal cover :35mm

Breadth

Effective depth

Overall depth

Span/ effective depth ratio =14-30

EC2 book Table 1.1

For C35/45, Ecm= 34kN/mm2

Poisons ratio: most common value :0.2

Beam dimensions: it is better to use a depth which is two and a half to three times the beam's width

Support refers to any structural element or system that helps to hold up or stabilize a building or
other structure. This can include walls, columns, beams, and other load-bearing components. The
purpose of support is to transfer the weight of the building and its contents to the ground,
preventing collapse or failure of the structure.

Appropriate slab thickness: 100-150mm

Beams are there to split slabs into manageable thickness

Use dimensions shown in autocad dont measure dimensions by yourself.

Floor slab has no slab design because the loads are passed to the ground itself.

All loads occurring on ground slab will distribute on the soil.No need to model the ground slab.
Gf has just floor concrete.but must show columns and tie beams no need to draw slabs.

Loadings

4'-3 5/8'': this means 4ft 3and 5/8 inches

Primary beam: beams connecting columns for transferring loads of a structure directly to columns.
The are shear connected or simply supported

Secondary beams: beams connecting primary beams to transfer loads to the primary beams.

NO need of shear walls because no lateral load

Shear walls have diaphraghms. For this wall no need of diaphragm but design wall.

Beam width is usually less than the column width.

Partitions:non load bearing walls

Loadings
EN( 1991-1-1:2002E) Annex A Table A.1 Density of concrete(bormal weight):24kN/m3
EN( 1991-1-1:2002E) Annex A Table A.2 Aggregate concrete masonru units:20kN/m3
Brass(used in hinges):83-85kN/m3

Imposed floor loads


If I place column on first floor it goes from ground to first on etabs
In autocad columns on ground floor are columns from ground floor to first floor

Do a wind analysis to see if shear walls are needed at the lifts and staircase. Sometimes lift walls are
made with concrete blocks.

Cladding:
Components attached to structure forming non structural external surfaces structural systems such
as masonry walls and render.

'A cladding system includes the components that are attached to the primary structure of
a building to form a non-structural external surface

. The cladding system includes the weather-exposed outer layer or


‘screen, fillers. Insulation, membranes, brackets, cavity
barriers, flashing, fixings, gaskets and sealants.'

Whilst cladding is generally attached to the structure of the building, it does not contribute to its
stability. However, cladding does play a structural role, transferring wind loads, impact loads,
snow loads and its own self-weight back to the structural framework. In particular, wind causes
positive and negative pressure on the surface of buildings and cladding must have
sufficient strength and stiffness to resist this load, both in terms of the type of cladding selected and
its connections back to the structure.
Cladding is often prefabricated in panels that are attached to the structural frame of the building, and
some cladding systems can be purchased 'off the shelf'.

Cladding systems may include additional components, such as windows, doors, gutters, roof
lights, vents and so on.

Draw slabs in areas with staircases also becase waist slab liest between the slabs up and
down,landings lie between slabs up and down.

Total load from the cantilever will transfer to the beam orthogonal to the cantilever. Slab portion
on top of the beam is part of the beam. Remove that part, you will get the complete picture of
the slab panels. Cantilever corner will mostly transfer the load to the column in this case. You can
simply extend one of the beam for better load transfer system or give half of the load of that area
to each beam

The lightweight aggregate is a kind of coarse aggregate which is


used in the production of lightweight concrete products like concrete
block, structural concrete, and pavement.

Hidden beam is a reinforced concrete beam, also called concealed beam provided within the
depth of supporting slabs. So, the depth of hidden beam is the same as slab depth

Corbel: a projection jutting out from a wall to support a structure


above it

In sap the shear force does not start from the corner because of the
column thickness
