Computation of The Thermal Insulation Capacity of The Building
2 COMPUTATION OF THE THERMAL INSULATION CAPACITY OF THE

BUILDING
13 | P a g e
2.1 Computation of the global thermal insulation coefficient

Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (the transfer of thermal energy between objects of
differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radioactive influence. Thermal
insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable
object shapes and materials.
Heat flow is an inevitable consequence of contact between objects of differing temperature. Thermal
insulation provides a region of insulation in which thermal conduction is reduced or thermal
radiation is reflected rather than absorbed by the lower-temperature body.
The insulating capability of a material is measured with thermal conductivity (k). Low thermal
conductivity is equivalent to high insulating capability (R-value). In thermal engineering, other
important properties of insulating materials are product density (ρ) and specific heat capacity (c).
One of the most important challenges of the 21st century is achieving efficient thermal design of
buildings. It is well known that an important amount of the CO2 emissions comes from building
heating devices. In order to reduce as much as possible the consumption of energy, an effective
thermal design should be considered.
The Romanian norm that governs the thermal design is C107-2005. The building is located in
Iasi, city placed in the III rd climatic zone, according to C107/3-2005, Te = -18℃ . The interior design
temperature is Ti = 18℃ .
The climatic region III corresponds to the building's location: Iasi (climatic zoning map for winter
period of the Romanian Code C 107/3-appendix-D).

3.1.1 Permanent and quasi permanent loads

Self-weight of all structural elements and nonstructural elements of the building can be considered as
permanent loads and is computed in daN. In order to determine the loads value, each element's layer is
multiplied with its unit weight of the materials that was made. Permanent loads act like uniformly
distributed loads on the length of the element (according SR-EN-1991-1-1-1-2004 NA 2006 they are
denoted with qk)

The snow loads on the roof is done taking into account the snow deposits depending on roof type
system that was chosen and the wind action which causes the redistribution of the snow.
Also, the snow melting is taken into account.

3.3.2 Wind load computation according to SR EN 1991-1-4-2006

The wind action on the structure is computed on structural elements, internal and external pressures
having an important role. Wind pressure on surfaces:
W e = q p ( z e )∙ C pe
Where:
 q p - the dynamic top pressure
 z e - is the reference height
 C pe - pressure coefficient for external pressures
q p ( z) = C e ∙ q b

qb = ∙ ρ∙ υ 2b – the pressure of reference speed

3.4 Exceptional lods

Projecting of the resistance structures at the earthquakes action has the objective of offering a seismic
response which includes characteristic degradation and the specific calculus will be done in the post-
elastic domain of deformation. Anti-seismic design has the following purposes:
3.4.1 General positive adaptation of the building which includes:
Choosing of the proper shapes on the horizontal and vertical directions for the building and for its
strength structures.
The correct disposal of the structural elements in the building ensemble as well as of the installation
system and equipment.
Securing the unfavorable interactions between structural elements, between construction parts,
structural and non structural elements.
3.4.2 Obtaining a proper structural mechanism of energy dissipation under the action of
seismic forces. This objective implies the following:
Organizing the eventual weak zones so that they won't be actioned in the post elastic domain (with
potential plastic hinges), with a higher priority to the elements which have a high post elastic potential
and which will not affect the strength structure of the - building, the eventual damages being repaired
without great technical efforts.
Plastic hinges will be distributed in such manner so that the post elastic deformation capacity will be
as high as possible, and the ductility requirements as low as possible.
Preventing the premature ruptures with brittle character by setting up the dimensioning modulus
The weak zones to be designed in such a manner so that they will have the best stability behavior.
3.4.3 Disposal of certain devices and equipment with the role of dissipating the seismic
energy:
The design method considers the dynamic and nonlinear behavior of the structure without
underlining the plasticization mechanism of the structure. The method has the following steps:
 Establishing the value of the seismic forces.
 Structural computation in linear domain at the seismic action in special case of loading cases.
 Correcting of the bending moments at the extremities of the structural elements in order to
obtain a favorable mechanism of energy dissipation.
 Dimensioning of the significant sections and reinforcement disposal and computation.
 Checking up of the lateral displacements conditions.

3.4.4 General rules of design of the structure

The arrangement of the structural elements will assure the direct transmittance of the gravitational
loads to the ground.
Space interaction between elements of the vertical elements will be assured by imposing some
bracings.
3.4.5 Seismic action evaluation

The seismic action is evaluated using the spectra corresponding to horizontal unidirectional ground
movement, described by accelerograms. The seismic action is designed using two horizontal
components evaluated starting from the same design response spectrum.
In the case of spatial mode, the seismic action is considered on all horizontal directions and on the
main principal directions. For the buildings with structural elements designed on two normal
directions, these directions are considered relevant.
In the computation, only the vibrations modes with significant contribution to the total seismic
response will be considered. This condition is respected if:
• The sum of effective modal masses of the considered modes of vibration is at least 90% from the
total mass of structure.
• All modes of vibration with an effective modal mass greater than 5% of the total mass have been
considered.
According to P100-2006 Design Code, the shear force applied at the base of the structure on —e
direction of the seismic action is:
F b=ϒ i + Sd (T )∙ m ∙ λ
Where:
 ϒ i=1 the building importance class.
 Sd (T ) the ordinate of the design response spectrum corresponding to fundamental period T.
 T the fundamental period of vibration in the plane of the horizontal direction
considered.
 m the lamped mass of the structure.
 λ = 0,85 the correction factor which takes into account the contribution of the fundamental
rode of vibration trough the effective modal mass associated.
β (T )
Sd ( T )=a g ∙
q
 a g= 0.2 g - the peak ground acceleration.
 β (T )=f (0.7) - elastic normalized response spectrum
 T c =0.7 s - The corner period.

Structural Analysis
The structural analysis of the building was performed using AxisVM11 Academic Version. The
program is used for modeling, analyzing and designing different types of structures, having the main
characteristics:
 Defining the structural elements using a graphic editing of the model in any view including
the perspective view.
 Allows you to display one or more parts, called active parts, at the same time. In addition, if
the Parts check box is enabled the commands will only affect or refer to the entities of the
active parts.
 Linear, nonlinear, buckling, vibration, seismic and dynamic analysis
 Possibility to define materials, their properties and their composition

47 | P a g e
Structural Analysis
The plate is divided into several parts depending on their supporting systems. The choice of the
floor is made based on criteria of maximum efficiency of the overall structure, satisfying the
technical conditions and functionality.
5.1 Preliminary design
The design of the slab is made taking into account the characteristic sections and where are
they situated: in the span and in the support area. The slab is made from the following
constructions materials:
The concrete used in construction is C25/30 with the following property:

f ck 25 N
f cd =α cc =1∙ =16.667
γc 1.5 mm2
 fcd Design value of the compression strength of the concrete
 fck Characteristic value of the compression strength of the concrete, measured on cylinder at
28 days
 γ c Partial coefficient for concrete
 α cc = 1
Tensioned strength of the concrete:

f ctk 0.05 N
f ctd=α cc =1.2
γc mm2
Reinforcements are made from OB 37 and PC 52 having the following design yielding limit
of the reinforcements:
N
f yd =¿250 (OB 37)
mm2
N
f yd =¿300 (PC 52)
mm2
Determining the thickness of the plate:

 Minimum allowable thickness of the plate is 60 mm
 Circulated slab, minimum thickness of the plate is 100 mm
hp= ( 351 ÷ 451 ) L=¿ h =( 0.1714 ÷ 0.1333 ) =15 cm→ 15 cmwill be imposed
p
For concrete slabs reinforced in 2 directions, the reinforcement ratio is between 0.4 and 0.5 percent.
For one way reinforced concrete slabs, the optimum reinforcement percent is 0.8.The imposed
minimum cover is 10 mm.
The minimum reinforcement diameter for PC 52 is ϕ 6 for bottom bars, top bars and distribution bars.
And for OB 37 the minimum diameter for bottom bars and distribution bars for top bars is ϕ 6, for top
bars is ϕ 8. Because h p <30 cm, the minimum numbers of bars on meter is 5, and the maximum
number is 12 (also on field and support).
For slab reinforced on one direction, the constructive reinforcement is put perpendicular to the
resistance reinforcement. In the field and bearing area the constructive bars must be 4 ϕ 6 bars/m.

5.2 Loads
At the slab design, the following types of loads are considered:
Dead loads:
daN daN
 gk =502 2
⇒ g dk =1.35∙ 502=677.7 2
m m
 The Dead Load will be imposed from the Program
Live loads:
d
 Church area pk = 200 daN/ m 2 => pk = 1.5 • 200 = 300 daN/ m 2
d
 Corridor area pk = 350 daN/ m 2=> pk = 1.5 • 350 = 525 daN/ m2
d
 Storing spaces pk = 350 daN/ m 2 => pk = 1.5 • 200 = 525 daN/ m 2
In the computation, the least favorable case will be used.

5.3 Slab layout
l1
<2 →concrete slab reinforced on two directions
l2
The plates are chosen separately in order to obtain the distribution of the loads depending on the type
of contour supports.
From the annex VIII from SR EN 1991-1, the following types of slabs can be found in the
administrative facility - plates reinforced on two directions:
 Plates fixed on two edges and simply supported on the other two;
 Plates fixed on three edges and simply supported on one edge;
 Plates fixed on all edges;
The slab have uniformly distributed loads on the support, representing the building contour, they act as
simple supports, on the intermediate supports they behave as fully restrained ones. For the loads
alternative distributed, the continuity effect is manifested by rotation of the support sections, so that
every intermediate span can be considered as independent, simply supported.
49 | P a g e
Structural Analysis
The static computation is made in the elastic range using tables made for different types of support
conditions. The maximum bending moments are required for computation and at least favorable case
is taken into account (chess distribution for the determination of the maximum bending moments in
the field and distribution along the whole surface for computing the maximum moments on the
supports).

7 REINFORCED CONCRETE GIRDER DESIGN
62 | P a g e
Structural Analysis

Linear members have the span very big compared with the other two dimensions of the cross section.
From loading point of view, linear members are loaded in bending. Girders (named also main beams)
are straight linear members which carry loads from slabs and/or secondary beam and transfer them to
vertical members (columns).
Because slab, beams and girders are poured together, the entire monolith floor works like one piece. In
this case, the cross-section of the girder is a T one.
Designing the girder must follow the steps:

l 600
h field
g = = =50÷ 60 cm ⇒h field
g =60 cm
10 ÷ 12 10 ÷ 12
l – Span of the girder
The width of the cross section b w is calculated with the relation:

hg 60
b w= = =20 ÷ 30 cm⇒ bw =30 cm
2÷ 3 2÷ 3
7.2 Shear force and bending moments
The shear force and bending moments are computed in the elastic range and the design efforts on the
girder are extracted from the results obtained from the Finite Element Analysis in Axis program.
These efforts are taken into account for both fundamental and special loads grouping and those from
the fundamental grouping are higher than the case from special loads grouping.

68 | P a g e
Structural Analysis
Columns are structural elements which carry the loads from girders and distribute them to the
foundations. They are designed using the bending moments on both directions and the axial forces.
8.1 Internal forces

Being a main structural element the computation is done in the elastic range and the internal forces for
both fundamental and special loading cases are chosen from the program AxisVM11.
The design internal efforts resulted from the program are the following:
8.2 Checking the maximum displacement of section
Checking the maximum displacements for the seismic action is made for both ULS and SLS.
 For the SLS the checking is done using the following relation:
d SLS SLS
r =ν ∙ q ∙ d ℜ <d r , a
Where:
 d SLS
r −¿ relative displacement under a specific level corresponding to the serviceability limit
state
 ν−¿reduction factor wich takes into account the period of appearance of an earthquake
having the value 0.4
 q−¿behaviour coefficient
 d ℜ−¿ relative displacement of a level (d ℜ=0.5 cm−¿the maximum deflection)
 d SLS

10.2 Generalities
This geotechnical documentation is prepared at the request of the beneficiary and analyses the
geotechnical conditions for setting the foundation for the site that he requests to make an investment.
10.2.1 The aim of study
 Determining the type, status and physical and mechanical properties of layers of foundation
activity across the area for the site located address;
 Determining the possible effects in time, of the groundwater on the foundation soil; report of
special conditions of the site
 Specify the parameters of seismicity and frost depth of the area
 Recommendations on the design, construction and operation of construction, conditioned by
characteristics of foundation soil;
 Natural land classification of classes provided by the norms for works of excavation and
embankment;
 Report of special conditions of the site and foundation soil, which may influence the
performance and behavior of the normal time of construction such as : (presence of difficult

land foundation, slopes, sliding or likely potential instability by degradation, erosion or
collapse, unfavorable oriented bedding, any temporary or irreversible changes expected in the
regime of groundwater chemistry);
According to P100/2006 the construction site is situated in a zone having the peak ground acceleration
ag=0.2 m/s2 and a corner period of Tc=0.7 s.
10.2.2 Hydro-geological
In terms of hydrological, groundwater can be divided into two main categories:

 captive stratification;
 phreatic stratification
Hydrostatic depth level is about -10 m in the south-east and at -20 m in the north-eastern terraces. In
some areas of the upper terrace, the water is completely missing because of the base clay topography,
making the water flow in terms of on groundwater, showing springs on the slopes. Their flow is
characteristic to steppe climate.
Physical and mechanical tests show the presence in ground water a quantity of free carbon dioxide,
which prints aggressive carbonic water to certain types of concrete and reinforced concrete.
Groundwater has a pronounced acid character, because of the presence of carbonic, humic and
sulphate acids, resulting from hydrogen sulphide present in peat deposits. In these conditions,
groundwater presents an acidic overall aggressive place to a range of types of concrete and reinforced
concrete.
The effective pressures beneath the foundation must respect the relation:

Structural Analysis
12.1 Technological design

All construction processes will be identified and technological details about every item will be related.
12.2 General conditions for construction execution:
The works are executed taking into account medium work conditions, considering that the materials
are provided at the construction site, in the range of the mechanized equipment from the location.
With new construction materials which have the optimum mechanical and physical property with
respect to the actual standards.
Tie building phases must take place at day light or using artificial light. The temperature must be
higher than +5°C, in order to provide optimum work condition and an open construction front.
12.3 Materials
The material names are those used in the actual standards. The measurement units for materials and
for other works are according to the international system for units (I.S).
They must be tested either visually or using other methods (Laboratory) in order to provide the
required strength, stiffness and property.
They must be kept in safe conditions before using them in order to avoid their deterioration or other
unfortunate factor which may affect their structural integrity.
All materials must be included in the specific consumption norms.
12.4 Technological stages
Choosing of the building location

Through building location it must be understood the place on which the future construction will be
placed. Building location must respect the technical-economic, the exploitation, the transport, the
hygiene and the functional aspects.
Choosing the construction site must respect a series of factors as: surface and shape of the terrain,
connections with the communication networks, the status of the terrain, relief and subsoil, natural
clime. The social-cultural buildings must not be placed in the industrial area. Links with the existent
networks have an important role in order to provide the building an easy access. The water and
electricity must be permanently available on the field and on the need of a neighborhood network is
utterly necessary. The opinion of creating an internal water installation is taken into account.
12.5 Setting of the axes and establishing the 0 cote.
In order to draw the axes of the building the following pieces are required:
• General situation plan;
• Drawing of the main axis of the construction plan;
• Foundation plan
92 | P a g e
Structural Analysis
The main axis situated on the field is the base of the wall execution. The exterior perimeter is
delimited; afterwards the foundation axis will be established and the columns contour will be drawn.
After finishing the upward works, a set of auxiliary axis are drawn in order to provide a support for the
future works.
Drawing of the elements on the vertical axis will be realized by setting up the beginning of the works
some initial exterior landmarks (a minimum number of 3 such landmarks is needed) from which the
future distances will be measured.
12.6 Mechanical excavation
General principles that must be respected when executing the excavation works:
• The natural equilibrium of the terrain surrounding the foundation hole must not be affected;
• The natural mechanical characteristics of the soil near foundation are maintained or
improved;
• The work security must be assured;
The mechanical excavation offers a faster and more accurate work. The devices used for these kind of
works are excavators with hydraulic commands. The back acting excavators will be used for these
kind of works (excavator cu cupa intoarsa) because it is used for gravel filled with clay soils.
V=952 m3
Where V is the volume of earth needed to be excavated V=952 tons of earth needed to be transported
12.6.1 Transport for the excavation works
The transport of the soil which had been excavated is an important part of the technological process
which influences in a decisive manner the productivity of these works. The soil resulted from the
excavation is transported using trucks. A flux of trucks must be assured in order not to cause the
stopping of the excavators. The standard dump truck is a full truck chassis with the dump body
mounted onto the frame. The dump body is raised by a hydraulic ram lift that is mounted forward of
the front bulkhead, normally between the truck cab and the dump body. The standard dump truck also
has one front axle, and one or more rear axles which normally have dual wheels on each side.
V=952 tons of earth needed to be transported
The dump truck capacity is 5.5 tons.
The distance of transport is 8 km at a specific location where it will be deposited. It will be considered
that each truck will make 2 transports: one loaded one empty.
A number of 10 trucks will be established to do the required operation-» 10 trucks will carry
simultaneously 55 tons. The average speed is 30 km/h, the type of road being categorized as good
(asphalted road).
12.6.2 Drawing of the pad and column axis
Depending on the drawing of the axis with respect to the project and determining the 0 cote, the next
step is to draw the foundation beam. The excavation works for foundation take place.
12.6.3 The execution of the foundation works for spread and continuous foundation
After digging the trench, the next step is to set up the wood formwork for the beam and to prepare the
reinforcements for the works. The formwork will be realized of pine wood using kneels and steel wire
for joints. The reinforcements must be put into place respecting the imposed distances from the
project. In this stage the reinforcement for the column must be also positioned in the foundation pad,
leaving only a distance of 80 cm of reinforcement over the ground (whiskers). A layer of minimum 10
cm is poured beneath the foundation beam. After that the concrete is poured into the foundation. The
pouring operations will be realized using concrete pumps and transit mixers. When pouring the
foundation block, a continuous flux must be achieved in order not to stop the complex process of
concrete pouring.

Structural Analysis
Pouring the concrete for the foundation and removing the formworks will be the last step for these
processes. The work point must be equipped with vibrators.
The filling soil is set up in order to achieve the required height where the 0 cote was established. A
layer of gravel having 5 cm is used in order to break the capillarity. A layer of Kraft paper is set up
over the foundation in order to avoid the water infiltrations.
The pouring of the leveling concrete at the pads and mounting of the reinforcement for all foundations
and columns take place. The pouring operations will not take place until the state inspection,
projection and the owner will be there and verify. A verbal process is done which confers the quality
of the works. Depending on the concrete class, concrete is required from the supply deposits.

13.1 Bill Of Quantities

A bill of quantities (BOQ) is a document used in tendering in the construction industry in which
materials, parts, and labor (and their costs) are itemized. It also (ideally) details the terms and
conditions of the construction or repair contract and itemizes all works to enable a contractor to price
the work for which he or she is bidding..
When doing this he needs the following:

 drawings
 specifications
 collections of construction items of work
In the process of preparing the Bill of Quantities the person who makes the bill should insert every
work that will contribute to the completion of the construction facility described by the drawings and
specifications, in a standard manner.
Therefore, the complete description of any item of work in a Bill of Quantities should
comprise:
 Code;
 Description of the work;
 Unit of measure;
 Quantity (with detailed calculation).
Beside the code, description and unit of measure, each item in a Collection of Construction Works has
attached three more indications, namely the usage rates of resources for the item (for materials, labor
and equipment).
A resource (usage) rate is the quantity of resource consumed to construct a unit of measure of the
specified item of work.

14.1 Time parameter analysis by CPM

Any action, activity, process, running on a time and leading to a greater or less amount of resources
cannot be chaotic place without some order, organization, and orientation. Even more so construction
activity, which requires certain features, taking place in different forms, necessary to secure the
premises previously established objectives.
The construction product activity except for the provision of construction services, has a fix character,
imposing that for its execution to move in space horizontally, vertically, within the same building;
characteristic elements of simple or complex process:
The main task of the organization is to determine the actions needed for the project and correlations of
these actions such that people and equipment, to intervene at the right time to execute a particular
action. Essentially this is to establish commencement and completion of actions, resulting in what we
call term program.
In the most general, critical path method is defined as a set of processes for planning and directing
execution of complex projects based on graph theory. In this process the only parameter that is
programmed is time. The result is a set schedule start and end dates of all activities linked to a
construction program called deadlines. The basic process of CPM is time analysis. Developing such a
program involves the following steps:
 Analysis of the project and establishing the list of activities;
 Development of network graph;
 Establishing the duration of activities;
 Calculation of the graph network elements;
 Analysis of employment in time restrictions;
 Translating the calendar network graph;
With the list of work activities are listed at the beginning and end defined by nodes aiming at:
 If there are activities that make the other activities and which are those;
 What activities can be started if x work ends;
 What are the activities to be completed so z work can begin;
This continues until the network diagram is obtained as a flowchart, orderly and systematic. The final
version of the graph is obtained by analyzing several variants so as accurately and clearly convey the
technological structure of the building. Identification of nodes and drawing shall conform to the rules
for drawing network graphs.
Any activity, process, action is done in a time interval and using a either high or small amount of
resources can't be realized in chaotic manner, without a proper organization and orientation. Obtaining
a construction product involves a high/small number of simple or complex processes with technical,
organizational, administrative or technologic character.
Each of the above are characterized by:

 Specific technologies;
 Specific working manner;
 Specific time and space required
127 | P a g e
Structural Analysis
The element of all simple or complex processes are characterized by:

 Work labor;
 Working objects;
 Work methods;
The site organization of a construction involves:

 Establishment of the activity, team size and execution rate and the activity;
 List of activities;
 Table of activities sequences and subsequences
Qi ∙ N Ti
The computation is realized using the following formula: t i=
ds ∙ M ∙ I
Where:
 ti- duration of the activity;
 Qi- quantity of work;
 ds- shift time;
 M - number of workers M= g ∙ mi
 I - productivity factor
Q i ∙ N Tui
 NTC labor productivity rate for mechanical processes: t i=
d s ∙U I ∙ k Fu
 NTui- plant performance rate;
 Uc number of devices;
 kFu- plant usage coefficient;
The following requirements need to be fulfilled:

 The network diagram;
 The resources distribution diagram;
 The activities calendar;

15.1 Generalities
This chapter contains the main conditions of quality that must be accomplished by the construction
works and the verifications effectuated to check if these conditions are fulfilled.
Compliance of the technical quality conditions must be supervised, first of all, by the leaders of the
formation work and by the technical staff.
Apart of these, some verification are effected:

 During execution, for all categories of works that make investment objects before they become
hidden by covering with (or embedded in) other categories of works or construction elements.
 All the technical quality conditions contained in this paper are drawn from technical
prescriptions for the design, execution and reception, at the elaboration date, complete
presentation of these prescriptions being included in the indicators and standards, published
annually in lists of the actual technical regulations (published annually). The main technical
prescriptions applicable to verifications of this work are mentioned in each chapter.
 Certification of quality work is done in order to confirm their correspondence with the project
in the limits of quality indicators and admissible deviations related in this.
 Frequency checks are mentioned in technical prescriptions. In special cases the designer may
increase these frequencies.
 In all cases where any result from a test or verification related to strength, stability or
functionality of the work, in a deplorable way, exceeds the permissible deviations from the
project or technical prescriptions, the decision of the continuation of works can be made only
by the beneficiary in written agreement with the approval of the designer.
Checking procedures - depending on the time of verification, these refer to:

 The determination through measurements of the correspondence of the checked elements with
the project norms from point of view of the position, dimensions and way of reinforcing.
 The existence of documents attesting the quality of materials.
 Effectuation of tests, technical prescriptions and elaboration of documentation with their
results.
 The examination of the existence and content of documentation- mentioned above and their
summaries and conclusions.
