Structural layout and load calculations
Answer the following Mapped
With
3.1 Enlist various guidelines for preparation of Structural layout of the building. CO1
3.2 Explain the ductile detailing criteria for the flexural steel as well as for spacing of links over the entire
length of the beam with neat sketches.
3.3 Prepare structural layout for the RC frame G+3 storeyed commercial building having 4 bays of 4 m
each in x-direction and 3 bays of 3 m each in z direction. Floor height is 3.8m. Designate slabs, beams
and columns. Suggest preliminary dimensions of the slab, beam and columns.
3.4 For a given typical floor plan of the building as shown in the Figure below, estimate the load on the
beam A1,A2,A3,A4 and B1,B2,B3,B4. All internal walls are of size 150 mm and external peripheral
walls are of thickness 250mm. Take size of beams as 250 x 650 mm. All columns are of size 300x600
mm. Slab thickness is 130 mm. Live load for all slabs is 4kN/m2 and floor finish is 1.5 kN/m2. Effective
height of the floor is 4.0 m. Unit weight of the brick masonry is 20kN/m3.

3.5 Prepare the structural layout ( place the columns, beams and slabs taking into consideration the basics
of Structural layout) of the typical floor plan of G+3, buildings shown in below. You are free to decide
the position of the stair case. Prepare Column and Beam & Slab layout for a typical Floor of the given
layout.
