1. Introduction
The basic aim of the structural design is to building a structure, which is safe, fulfilling the
intended purpose during its estimated life, economical in terms of initial and maintenance cost,
durable and also maintaining a good aesthetic appearance. The construction of any building
consists of three phases; a) Design b) Drawing with proper detailing and c) Construction as per
drawing and details. The design of structure consists of two parts. I) Analysis and ii) Design. At
first the preliminary size of various member for specific structure are fixed and the analysis is
carried out. With the result obtained from analysis, necessary design is carried out.

This report deals with the methodology of the Structural Analysis and Design of Residential
building located at Suryabinayak, Bhaktapur attached herewith.

5. Material
Reinforced Concrete of grade M20.
Reinforcement bars of grade TMT (FE 500).
Unit weight (Concrete) = 25 KN/m3

For the purpose of analysis, following material properties are assumed for concrete:

Grade of Concrete = M20 for all structural member

Grade of Steel = Fe500

Unit weight (Concrete) = 25 kN/m3

Young’s Modulus of Elasticity (Concrete) = 5000 √fck

Poisson’s Ratio (Concrete) = 0.2

Unit weight (Masonry wall) = 19.0 KN/m3

7. Dead Loads
Slab / Beam / Column = Program Calculated by unit wt. given (25 kN/m3)

Brick Masonry (Unit Wt.) = 19.0 KN/m3

Floor Finish = 0.9 KN/m2

Partition wall =1.0 KN/m2

8. Live loads
Rooms = 2 KN/m2

Stairs/ Corridors = 3 KN/m2

` Roof (with Access) = 1.5 KN/m2

 10. Load Cases
Following loads have been considered in the analysis of the building as per IS456-2000 and NBC
105 codes.

1. Dead Load (DL): It includes self-weight, Floor Finish, Partition wall, Wall load.

2. Live load (LL)

3. Seismic Load (Ex & Ey): For Earthquake Load, 100% of Dead Load and 25% of Live Load is
taken into account. Seismic Coefficient method using IS 1893:2000 Part I
is applied directly through software (ETABS V9.5) for Earthquake
analysis of the structure.

11. Load Combination

12. Relevant Codes followed

a. IS 456: 2000 : For Design of Structural Elements

b. SP 16 : Design Aid

c. SP 34 and IS 13920:1993 : For Detailing

d. NBC 105 : For Lateral Loading

e. IS 875 part I : For Dead Load

f. IS 875 part II : For Live Load

13. Analysis and Design

a. Analysis
A three dimensional linear elastic analysis has been carried out using the standard software
ETABS V 9.5 .The Structure is assumed to be fixed at the plinth level. The brick wall is considered
as the filler wall only. The beams are modeled as rectangular beams. Center to center dimension of
the structure has been considered. The rigid end effect has also been considered in the analysis.

b. Design & Detailing

The design of the members has been done as per philosophy of limit state method. For the design
of the members IS 456:2000 and design aid SP 16 has been used extensively.
Footings have been designed for vertical loads developed at the base due to dead load and live
load only. Isolated/ Combine / Strap/ Strip/ Raft footings have been adopted for ground load
transfer. Longitudinal reinforcement in columns has been calculated based on critical load
combination among the load combinations adopted. A symmetric arrangement of the
reinforcement has been adopted from seismic point of view that reversal stress may occur.
Longitudinal reinforcement in beams is also based on critical load combination. It is calculated
from the envelope of bending moment diagram. Spacing of the shear reinforcement has been
calculated as per the ductility principle. IS 13920 -1993 have been used for this purpose.
The Reinforcement detailing of all the important structural components have been shown on the
drawing. They conform to the relevant sections of the IS 456:1975, NBC 105:1994, IS 13920:1993, SP:
16, and SP 34:1987

Given residential building is analyzed & designed as per the NBC / IS codal provision to ensure
the overall structural safety & serviceability for all the possible load combinations. Max
Displacement is with in limit specified by code (i.e less than 0.004H)
It is strongly recommended to consult the structural engineer prior any change in structural
details; if required during construction phase.
