Project Name: Krishna Tower. Location: New Baneshwor, Kathmandu. Prelimary Design of Structural Member: 1) Beam
1) Beam:
Depth of Beam, Dbeam = 1/10th to 1/15th of the span.
Span = 16'-6" = 5.0292 m
For Long Span, Dbeam = 1/10 to 1/15 of 16'6"
th th
Check:
As per IS 13920:2016
Clause 6.1.1, beam width-to-depth ratio should be >0.3
In our case of preliminary sizing, b/d = 0.56 OK
As per IS 456:200
Basic value of span to effiective depth ratios for spans up tp 10m = 26
(For continious beam condition)
In our case of preliminary sizing, L/D ratio = 11.18 OK
2) Slab:
Thickness of Slab = 1/28th to 1/32nd of the span.
For Long Span
Span = 16'-6" = 5.0292 m
Thickness = 0.180 to 0.157 m
Page 1 of 3
Adopt Thickness of Slab = 200 mm
Check
For span greater than 3.5m we use deflection criteria of beam in the case of slab as well.
As per IS 456:200
Basic value of span to effiective depth ratios for spans up tp 10m = 26
(For continious beam condition)
In our case of preliminary sizing, L/D ratio = 23.24 OK
3) Column:
Taking half the span of effective span as 8.25 f = 2.5146 m
Calculating Load on one side of column
For commercial building taking Live Load as 3.5 kN/m2 edge centre
Total Live Load = 22.131 kN 44.26249 88.52498
Self weight of slab = 31.616 kN 63.23213 126.4643
Weight of floor finish = 6.956 kN 13.91107 27.82214
(Assumed 50mm thick and 22kN/m2 unit wt.)
Weight of beam = 7.072 kN 21.21694 28.28925
Weight of wall = 25.448 kN 76.34326 101.791
(Assuming on 80% of total weight of wall)
93.223 kN 218.966 372.892
Assuming 2.5% of steel and for Fe415 and M25 grades of material
According to IS 456:2000 Cl 39.3 for axially loaded column
P = 0.4*fck*Ac + 0.67*fy*Ast
