Design Experience Information
CE 502 Reinforced Concrete Design
1st Semester, SY 2020-2021
Student Villanueva, Jeremiah O.
Design of a Six-Storey School Building in Barangay San Jose,

Project Title Rodriguez, Rizal
Program Concentration Area Structural

Constraints
The client wants a quality structure with such a low construction cost. The
client aims to construct a six-storey reinforced concrete school building with
a limited budget. The designer came up with a different design method in
Economic Constraints
(Cost of the Material) determining the best and most economical design in line with the client’s
budget. The designer will conduct a rough estimate of the project using
different systems.
For every structure, safety is the most important aspect to be designed. The
designer needed to consider the protection of each person using the area
and investigate carefully if it can withstand the load given to it. In disparity
with the economical constraints, the three trade-offs that the designer come
up to be evaluated based on the safety of the structure. It must have been
taken in to account since the risk of dangers must be avoided.
Sustainability Constraints Sustainability is a concept that is related to the continuity of human
(Story Drift) societies and nature. It has a principle that are intended for guiding human
activities towards a more secure future. The life of every person involves
risks and threats at all level from your immediate neighborhood to the whole
world but life also involves opportunities to improve the security to meet the
needs of the society and its members. Since sustainability refers to
continuity, its main concepts are the renewable natural resources.
Since the client wants the project to be done before the start of the school
year, the designer considered the duration of the construction in the
Constructability Constraints trade-offs. The designer will create a timeline that contains the whole
(Duration of the
Construction) project duration and compare the number of months to finish an entire
project per system used in order to identify the design that will satisfy the
client’s expected time to finish the project. So, the designer came up with a
different design method in order to evaluate and determine the fastest
duration of the construction project in line with the client’s expected time to
finish.
Environmental constraint is one of the most important because these days

Structural Safety Constraints typhoons and earthquake mostly occur. Lateral deflections are affected by
(Deflection)
seismic and wind loads; thus, it is essential to know these deflections in order to
prevent accidents.
Tradeoffs
The one-way slab system is a system composing of slabs, beams and columns in
which the ratio of the longer side of the slab should be greater than two. In this
One-Way Slab System system, there will be more count of beams in which most are intermediate beams
attached to the girders connected to columns. It transfers load from slab to the
longer side of the beam which act as concentrated load to the girder before being
transferred to the column.
Conventional Two-Way Slab System also consists of slabs, beams and columns in
which the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side of the slab should be less
than or equal to two (2). There will be lesser beam counts in this system
compared to Conventional One-Way Slab, but greater beam cross-section is
expected since there will be no intermediate beams (except in staircases) and all
Two-Way Slab System
the beams are directly connected to columns. Two-way slab system transfers the
loadings in every side of the slabs which is connected directly to the column.
Every beam will carry a trapezoidal distributed load, cutting the slab into 45˚ and
connecting all the lines in the middle.
Flat slab is a reinforced concrete slab supported directly by concrete columns

without the use of beams. Flat slab is defined as one sided or two-sided support
system with sheer load of the slab being concentrated on the supporting columns
and a square slab called ‘drop panels. A Flat Slab is a two-way reinforced concrete
slab that usually does not have beams and girders, and the loads are transferred
directly to the supporting concrete columns. The ratio of the longer side to the
Flat Slab System shorter side of the slab should not be greater than two hundred twenty percent
(2.2). The reinforcements in a flat slab system are usually a double-layer
reinforced slab so that it could resist both tension and compression loadings since
there are no beam or girders in this system.

CHAPTER 1: PROJECT BACKGROUND
1.1 Introduction
School plays a very important role in every persons life. It helps each person to gain academic
knowledge and improve ones trait. It is necessary because it plays an important role to convert
vulnerable mind into a better human being. It is also important for each student to have a good
and presentable learning spaces. These might help the students to achieve their goal of passing
the subject and have a good results. These means that, having a good environment helps the
student to improve their performances. Having a school well-built and have enough spaces for
everyone, makes it possible for each student that lives in distant areas to study and improve
their interest in learning.
In the past few years, the growth of the Philippine economy is continuously increasing and large
constructions like buildings are one of the common example. These buildings are built to make
people safe and based on the national codes and standards. These must be strong to withstand
major phenomenon like earthquake. It is one of the most devastating phenomenons that might
occur. Earthquake causes great destruction of properties and might resulted in huge numbers of
casualties. As we all know, earthquake do not kill people directly, but structures that collapsed
do. Because of that, the designer provides different types of earthquake-resisting system to
prevent severe damages to the structure and avoid casualties. The designer also tends to
develop a structural design of a building that will be able to resist the earthquake that can occur
nearby the location.
Reinforced concrete (RC) is a composite material in which concrete's relatively low tensile
strength and ductility are counteracted by the inclusion of reinforcement having higher tensile
strength or ductility, is one of the most popular structural systems today. As it is said at
Wikipedia, the reinforcement in a RC structure has to undergo the same strain or deformation
as the surrounding concrete in order to prevent discontinuity, slip or separation of the two
materials under load. Maintaining composite action requires transfer of load between the
concrete and steel. The direct stress is transferred from the concrete to the bar interface so as
to change the tensile stress in the reinforcing bar along its length, this load transfer is achieved
1
by means of bond and is idealized as a continuous stress field that develops in the vicinity of the
steel-concrete interface.
1.2 The Project

This project tends to develop a structural design of a six storey school building that will be
located in Barangay Bagong Nayon, Antipolo City, Rizal. This location is bounded by several
villages and subdivisions. The school building will offer services and to provide the needs of the
people especially to the students.
The proposed six-storey building has a floor area of 50m x 12m (600m2) and a height of 18m.
The first floor contains the lecture rooms, laboratory rooms and the faculty room. The second,
third, and fourth floor contains lecture rooms also. The fifth floor contains the audio-visual
rooms and the computer rooms. And the sixth floor contains the library. It has stairs located on
the leftmost part of the building while the comfort rooms are in the rightmost part of the
building. The covering of the building will be roof deck.
The proposed project is designed to accommodate the increasing number of enrollees in the
school every year. The structural members in the given project is made up of rigid concrete,
designed and conceptualized based on the existing codes and standards.

1.7 Project Development

Before a design project to be executed, the project must come to a phase of development based
upon the series of stages which will take upon the course of the completion of the project. The
development of the project will mainly start in the planning stage. In line with this,
4
conceptualization is needed. Second is the identification of the design standards, specifications
and parameters for computation of the design project. Third one will be working with excel
programs of beams, slabs and columns for the effectiveness of the design. After that, the
Preliminary Structural design is needed. Next is the calculation for the final design project and

CHAPTER 2: DESIGN INPUTS
2.1 Description of the Structure
The Six-storey School Building is to be designed as reinforced concrete structure. The building
design falls under category I or Essential Facilities as per NSCP specification. The project is
determined to be greater than five kilometers from the closest known seismic source. The
structure location is in Zone 4 with velocity up to 200 kilometer per hour.
However, there were series of trade-offs based on design constraints, considerations and
standards that have been observed before coming up with the most favorable design.
Discussion of the said trade-offs will be discussed on the next chapters.
The structural design of the school building is described as shown in the figure. The total floor
area of each floor is 600 square meters. The floor to floor distance of each story is 3.5 meters.
The ground floor area contains the faculty room, two laboratory rooms and two lecture rooms.
The second floor up to the fourth floor has five lecture rooms each. The fifth floor was intended
for two AVR rooms and three computer rooms. The sixth floor was planned for the library.
Stairways were located at the left most part of the building while the comfort rooms are on the
right most part. Fire exits were also located at the right most part near the comfort rooms.

In classifying the structure, the designer will be using National Structural Code of the Philippines
(NSCP) 2015. In which the required parameters were determined based on the occupancies and
properties of the site location
2.5.1 Dead Loads

Dead loads consist of the weight of all materials of construction incorporated into the building
or other structure, including but not limited to walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, stairways, built-in
partitions, finishes, cladding and other similarly incorporated architectural and structural items
and fixed service equipment, including weight of cranes.
The actual weights of materials and constructions shall be used in determining dead loads for
purposes of design. In the absence of definite information, it shall be permitted to use the
minimum values in Tables 204-1 and 204-2

2.6 Review of Related Literature
This chapter presents the related studies and literatures about that provided background for the
development of the study and bring the readers up-to-date. It includes both conceptual and
research literature from the foreign and local authors.
Mohammad Adil Dar, et.al. (2013) A Study on Earthquake Resistant Construction Techniques
In Japan, it is very important to incorporate the preventive measures when it comes to natural
disaster because the country itself is facing a threat on natural disasters. Environmental
preservation strategies and economic considerations are into their approach to the
development of land and the creation of urban centers. There are three major reasons how a
formidable power of an earthquake can cause severe damage to the infrastructure. The first one
is that earthquake resistant structures were insufficient. Second is infrastructure and other
fundamental urban systems were deficient. Last is the post-earthquake crisis management was
deficient also. It was also written that there is still no guarantee that structures built to
particular standards will be able to withstand all the assaults of nature. Therefore, a
comprehensive measure for earthquake disaster prevention should be developed with the
addition of reinforcement to the earthquake resistant structures.
Yoshihiro Kimura and Gregory A. MacRae (2004) Effect of Cantilever Column Flexural
Characteristic on Braced Frame Displacements.
Ground vibrations due to earthquakes can cause inertia forces at certain locations in the
building. These forces travel through the roof and walls to the foundation. Based on the
earthquake design code 1893 of the Bureau of Indian Standards, they published other relevant
earthquake design codes for earthquake resistant constructions. Some of these codes focuses
on providing vertical reinforcements especially in corners, internal and external wall junctions.
The grade of mortar should also be as per codes specified depending on its location. They
concluded that technology is available to drastically mitigate the earthquake related disasters. It
25
is very important to strictly follow the earthquake resistant measures they provide. It was
confirmed that the main reason for severe damage to structures caused by earthquake is by not
following the specified rules and regulations especially in the developing countries. So, they
repeatedly tell that civil engineers have a great role to play in mitigating the sufferings caused by
earthquake-related disasters.
Seismic Retrofit for Reinforced Concrete Residential Structures (MSCE-Structural Student,

Institute of Civil Engineering, UP Diliman)
According to the study of Ian Howell S. Tungol, retrofitting is considered as any modification
done on an existing structure to restore its capacity from the original design. In recent years, the
term retrofitting or rehabilitation could also refer to further strengthening of existing structures
to make them more resistant against applied loads. In the case of seismic retrofitting, structures
are modified in consideration with seismic activity, ground motion, or soil failure due to
earthquake.
Parametric Study of ACI Seismic Design Provisions Through Dynamic Analysis of a Reinforced
Concrete Intermediate Moment Frame by Michael James Richard
From the study of James Richard Reinforced concrete moment frames are one type of structural
system that is widely used to resist seismic forces. The design requirements for these frames
have been divided into three categories based on the seismic activity of a building’s location:
special moment frames, intermediate moment frames, and ordinary moment frames. Ordinary
moment frames are located in areas of low seismic activity and follow the standard design
practices for flexural members, columns, and members in compression and bending. Meanwhile,
special moment frames are used in areas of high seismic activity such as California. These frames
have been the focus of much research into the design and detailing of concrete members with
respect to increasing a building’s survivability during an earthquake. Intermediate
moment-resisting frames are used in areas of moderate seismic activity such as in the
Southeastern United States. This type of frame design was added to code specifications after the
26
introduction of special and ordinary moment frames in order to provide guidelines for structures
that do not require the ductility of those used in California.
Analysis and Design of Flat Slab and Grid Slab And Their Cost Comparison by Sathawane, R.S.
Deotale: Department of Civil Engineering, YCCE, Nagpur-441110, Maharashtra, India
According to Sathwane the flat slab system of construction is one in which the beam is used in
the conventional methods of construction done away with the directly rests on column and the
load from the slabs is directly transferred to the columns and then to the foundation. Drops or
columns are generally provided with column heads or capitals. Grid floor systems consisting of
beams spaced at regular intervals in perpendicular directions, monolithic with slab.
Structural Design of Reinforced Concrete Tall Buildings by Ali Sherif S. Rizk
According to the study of Ali Sherif S. Rizk the first reinforced concrete tall building was built in
1903 by A.O. Elzm using E.I. Ransome’s system of casting square twisted steel bars with concrete
as a frame with slabs and concrete exterior wall. This is a 15-story building and known as Ingalls
building in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. Since the construction of this building engineer have realized
the advantages of building with reinforced concrete as compared to building with steel. Among
the early realized advantages are cheaper construction cost and better fire resistance. Concrete
tall buildings have larger mass and damping ratio than steel tall buildings, which helps in
minimizing motion perception, and providing better stability against wind and seismic loads. The
development in concrete technology over the twentieth century covering materials, structural
systems, analysis and construction techniques, made it possible to build concrete tall buildings
such as Petronas towers (452 m high and 85 floors), Jin Mao (421 m high and 88 floors) and Burj
Dubai (800m+ high and 160 floors).
Concrete construction is preferred in our area of the world because of the availability of
concrete materials in the local markets and the traditionally more experienced concrete
construction industry. It is therefore expected to see more tall concrete and composite buildings
constructed in the major cities of the Arab countries.

Analytical Approach to Study Effect of Shear Wall on Flat Slab & Two Way Slab By Pawah,
Tiwari & Prajapati, July 2014
Slab directly supported on column termed as flat slab. The study compares behavior of flat slab
with old traditional two-way slab along with effect of shear walls on their performance. The
parametric studies comprise of maximum lateral displacement, storey drift and axial forces
generated in the column. The investigation shows the seismic behavior of heavy slab without
end restrained. For stabilization of variable parameter shear wall are provided at corner from
bottom to top for calculation (Tiwari and Prajapati, 2014)
Sustainability of Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures – A Case Study by A. Puskas and L. M.

Moga
Traditionally, the engineering education is aiming to establish quantifiable, measurable units,

and after that comparing those to utilize the unit considered more suitable. When thinking
about sustainability of structures, traditional mentality has to be set aside, as comparing
different structural systems is becoming a complex task. Choosing different materials for the
same reinforced concrete structure has immediate comparable impact on the environment.
Reinforced concrete structures are using excessively the limited limestone and other resources
and, in the same time, a large quantity of energy for producing the rebar, the clinker and the
structural concrete, having negative impact on the environment. Hence, considering that
specific building indispensable for the society, the aim of obtaining sustainable buildings
becomes equivalent to decrease their negative impact on the environment while still taking full
advantage of their strength. This target can be achieved by judicious choose of the built-in
materials.
For a given multistory reinforced concrete frame building, the scope is to establish the concrete
and the reinforcing steel classes in such a way that the impact of these materials on the
environment to be kept at the lowest possible level. This paper presents a study on an ordinary
reinforced concrete frame structure designed using two different concrete classes (C16/20 and
C30/37) and two different reinforcing bar classes (PC52 and S500), obtaining four different
28
possibilities for the same solution. Different combinations of built-in materials are resulting
different economic and environmental impacts. The environmental impact for the whole life
cycle of the studied solutions, using different material qualities, is estimated using Athena
Impact Estimator for Buildings, taking into consideration weighted life-cycle analysis indicators
(total energy used, the quantity of solid emissions in air and water, the required natural
resources consumed – especially the non-renewable ones – the impact owed to the depletion of
the natural resources, human health and the impact on the ecosystems). Besides the
environmental impact estimation, realisation cost is also evaluated for each structural solution,
obtaining a relationship between the cost (as the major decision influencer) and the
sustainability of the studied solutions (Moga and Puskas)
Comparative Analysis of Flat Plate Multistoried Frames with and Without Shear Walls under
Wind Loads by Fayazuddin Ahmed Syed, B. Dean Kumar, Y. Chandrasekhar, B.L.P. Swami 2012
In general slabs are classified as one-way or two-way. Slabs that primarily deflect in one
direction are referred to as one-way slabs. Flat Plates present a possible problem in transferring
the shear at the perimeter of the columns. In other words, there is a danger that the columns
may punch through the slabs. As a result, it is frequently necessary to increase column sizes or
slab thicknesses or to use shear heads.
Assessment of Different Aspects of RC Flat Slab Building over RC Frame Building By Bhina,
Banerjee & Paul
According to Banerjee the performance level of the flat slab building is relatively less than the
conventional building. Flat slab building generates baser shear and displacement. Seismic
performance of a conventional building is superior better than a flat slab building. Due to the
architectural purpose flat slab building becomes more popular.
Seismic Resistance of Reinforce Concrete Beam-Column Joints by Norman W. Hanson, Harold

W. Conner
29
According to the study of Conner, full size cast-in-place reinforced concrete beam-column joints
representing a critical portion of a multistory building were tested under simulated earthquake
loading. Six of the specimens tested represented an exterior joint unconfined by spandrel beams.
A seventh specimen had short unloaded spandrels on each side of the joint. Test variables were
column size, column axial load, and amount of joint lateral reinforcement. Reversible elastic and
plastic load cycles were applied to each specimen to simulate earthquake loads. Suitability of
recommended reinforcing details for use in earthquake resistant design was verified by test
results. Specifically, closed rectangular hoops surrounding the joint were shown to be essential
in developing ductility and maintaining strength of isolated joints in structural frames. Energy
absorption required in building frames subjected to earthquakes was demonstrated to be amply
provided by a properly designed reinforced concrete frame.
Over Strength and Force Reduction Factors of Multi-Storey Reinforced-Concrete Buildings.
This paper addresses the issue of horizontal over-strength in modern code-designed

reinforced-concrete (RC) buildings. The relationship between the lateral capacity, the design
force reduction factor, the ductility level and the over-strength factor are investigated. The
lateral capacity and the over-strength factor are estimated by means of inelastic static pushover
as well as time-history collapse analysis for 12 buildings of various characteristics representing a
wide range of contemporary RC buildings. The importance of employing the elongated periods
of structures to obtain the design forces is emphasized. Predicting this period from free
vibration analysis by employing ‘effective’ flexural stiffness is investigated. A direct relationship
between the force reduction factor used in design and the lateral capacity of structures is
confirmed in this study. Moreover, conservative over-strength of medium and low period RC
buildings designed according to Eurocode 8 is proposed. Finally, the implication of the force
reduction factor on the commonly utilized over-strength definition is highlighted. Advantages of
using an additional measure of response alongside the over-strength factor are emphasized.
This is the ratio between the over-strength factor and the force reduction factor and is termed
the inherent over-strength (Ωi). The suggested measure provides more meaningful results of
reserve strength and structural response than over-strength and force reduction factors (A. S.
Elnashai).

Design Methods of Reinforced-Concrete Frame Structure to Resist Progressive Collapse in Civil
Engineering
According to Hongyu Wang, Youpo Su, Qingshen Zeng c., since the “9.11”terrorist event, the
World Trade Center progressive collapsed in a flash, U.S. engineers began to really care about
preventing progressive collapse in reinforced concrete buildings. When the accident has
happened, the structures collapse is a serious threat to public safety. In our country, most public
buildings are reinforced concrete frame structure. Comparing with shear wall structure, frame
structure is more likely to collapse. Therefore, the research about progressive collapse of frame
structures is very important. Some standard native and abroad such as British Standards,
GSA2003, U.S. Department of Defense standard (DoD2005) and DoD2009 did researches in this
text and these researches can be used for designers as reference in the project design.
2.6.14 Parametric Study of Flat Slab Building With and Without Shear Wall to Seismic
Performance by Anuja Walvekar , H.S.Jadhav 2015
Flat Plates are solid concrete slabs of uniform depths that transfer loads directly to the
supporting columns without the aid of beams or capitals or drop panels. Flat plates are probably
the most commonly used slab system today for multi-storey reinforced concrete hotels, motels,
apartment houses, hospitals, and dormitories. The main disadvantage in Flat slabs and Flat
plates is their lack of resistance to lateral loads, hence special features like shear walls,
structural Walls are to be provided if they are to be used in High rise constructions.
Analyses of Reinforced Concrete Wall-Frame Structural System Considering Shear Softening of

Shear Wall by Yasushi Sanada, Toshimi Kabeyasawa and Yoshiaki Nakano
According to the study of Yasushi Sanada, Toshimi Kabeyasawa and Yoshiaki Nakano seismic
performances of reinforced concrete wall-frame structural systems were investigated through a
shaking table test and three-dimensional nonlinear frame analyses. A reinforced concrete
wall-frame building with soft first story was designed as a prototype structure for this study. A
one-third scaled model of the prototype structure was tested on the Large-scale Earthquake
31
Simulator, NIED, and Japan. The testing methods and major findings were reported herein. The
three-dimensional nonlinear dynamic analysis of the test structure was conducted using a
four-node isoparametric element model, which was based on the two-dimensional constitutive
law for reinforced concrete panel elements, in order to verify its reliability. This analytical model
could simulate the displacement concentration, the shear failure of shear wall and the story
yielding in the soft first story of the test structure, which was due to the shear softening of shear
wall. Moreover, the effects of the shear softening of shear wall on responses of fifteen
wall-frame buildings with different number of stories and different column and wall sections,
which included regular buildings as well as vertically irregular ones, were investigated through
three-dimensional nonlinear pushover analyses.

CHAPTER 3: CONSTRAINTS, TRADE OFFS AND STANDARDS
3.1 Design Constraints
Constraints is defined as the state of being restricted or compelled to avoid or perform some
action or a system in a given scenario or environment. It is an element, factor or subsystem that
works as a blockage. It restricts an entity or project from achieving its full potential with
reference to its goal. Constraints have to be address in order to come up with the most
favorable choice in the final design.
The following were the constraints that will have a significant impact on the design of six-storey
apartment building based on the designer’s judgment:
3.1.1 Economic Constraints (Cost of the Material)

The client wants a quality structure with such a low construction cost. The client aims to
construct a six-storey reinforced concrete school building with a limited budget. The designer
came up with a different design method in determining the best and most economical design in
line with the client’s budget. The designer will conduct a rough estimate of the project using
different systems.
3.1.2 Sustainability Constraints (Story Drift)

For every structure, safety is the most important aspect to be designed. The designer needed to
consider the protection of each person using the area and investigate carefully if it can
withstand the load given to it. In disparity with the economical constraints, the three trade-offs
that the designer come up to be evaluated based on the safety of the structure. It must have
been taken in to account since the risk of dangers must be avoided. Sustainability is a concept
that is related to the continuity of human societies and nature. It has a principle that are
intended for guiding human activities towards a more secure future. The life of every person
involves risks and threats at all level from your immediate neighborhood to the whole world but
life also involves opportunities to improve the security to meet the needs of the society and its
members. Since sustainability refers to continuity, its main concepts are the renewable natural
resources.
33
3.1.3 Constructability Constraints (Duration of the Construction)
Since the client wants the project to be done before the start of the school year, the designer
considered the duration of the construction in the trade-offs. The designer will create a timeline
that contains the whole project duration and compare the number of months to finish an entire
project per system used in order to identify the design that will satisfy the client’s expected time
to finish the project. So, the designer came up with a different design method in order to
evaluate and determine the fastest duration of the construction project in line with the client’s
expected time to finish.
3.1.4 Structural Safety Constraints (Deflection)

Environmental constraint is one of the most important because these days typhoons and
earthquake mostly occur. Lateral deflections are affected by seismic and wind loads; thus, it is
essential to know these deflections in order to prevent accidents.
3.2 Trade offs

The design trade-off is a method of construction which is appropriate to address the design
constraints efficiently and effectively. In the trade-off analysis, a set of trade-offs are being
compared to each other to be able to come up with the best trade-off.
3.2.1 One-Way Slab System

The one-way slab system is a system composing of slabs, beams and columns in which the ratio
of the longer side of the slab should be greater than two. In this system, there will be more
count of beams in which most are intermediate beams attached to the girders connected to
columns. It transfers load from slab to the longer side of the beam which act as concentrated
load to the girder before being transferred to the column.
One-way slab is a slab which is supported by beams on the two opposite sides to carry the load
along one direction. The ratio of longer span (l) to shorter span (b) is equal or greater than 2,
considered as One-way slab because this slab will bend in one direction i.e in the direction along
its shorter span. Due to the huge difference in lengths, load is not transferred to the shorter
beams. Main reinforcement is provided in shorter span and distribution reinforcement in longer
span.
34
Advantages Disadvantages
Simple construction. Associated down stand beams may require greater

storey height.
Penetration in slabs are easily manageable. Deter fast formwork cycles.
Heavy load carrying capacity. Compromise flexibility of partition location and

horizontal service distribution.
Exceptional fire resistance. The segments cannot be cut on site, must be carefully
designed.
Table 3.2.1.1 Advantages and Disadvantages of One-way slab
3.2.2 Two-Way Slab System

Conventional Two-Way Slab System also consists of slabs, beams and columns in which the ratio
of the longer side to the shorter side of the slab should be less than or equal to two (2). There
will be lesser beam counts in this system compared to Conventional One-Way Slab, but greater
beam cross-section is expected since there will be no intermediate beams (except in staircases)
35
and all the beams are directly connected to columns. Two-way slab system transfers the
loadings in every side of the slabs which is connected directly to the column. Every beam will
carry a trapezoidal distributed load, cutting the slab into 45˚ and connecting all the lines in the
middle.
The behavior of a two-way slab is similar to that of a one-way slab the only difference being that
now the slab loads will be carried in both directions. The reinforcement rules are also similar in
both directions.
High Earthquake Resistance High Material Cost
One Layer Reinforcement High Formwork Cost
Live Load is not Limited Larger Beam Cross Section
36
High Load Capacity High Dead Load
Table 3.2.1.1 Advantages and Disadvantages of Two-way slab
3.2.3 Flat Slab System

Flat slab is a reinforced concrete slab supported directly by concrete columns without the use of
beams. Flat slab is defined as one sided or two-sided support system with sheer load of the slab
being concentrated on the supporting columns and a square slab called ‘drop panels. A Flat Slab
is a two-way reinforced concrete slab that usually does not have beams and girders, and the
loads are transferred directly to the supporting concrete columns. The ratio of the longer side to
the shorter side of the slab should not be greater than two hundred twenty percent (2.2). The
reinforcements in a flat slab system are usually a double-layer reinforced slab so that it could
resist both tension and compression loadings since there are no beam or girders in this system.
Low Formwork Cost Greater Deflection
Short Constructability Duration Greater Slab Thickness
Average Material Cost Low Earthquake Resistance
Less Dead Load Low Load Capacity
Table 3.2.1.1 Advantages and Disadvantages of Flat Slab
3.3 Raw Designer’s Rankings

The trade-offs, which is the use of Special Moment Resisting Frames, Dual System, and Lateral
Force Resisting System will be evaluated based on the given constraints in this chapter. The
three designs will have some advantages and disadvantages over each other’s. The designers
will come up with the final design of the three trade-offs in order for the client to have an
alternative and properly choose the best option that will satisfy the client’s needs. The designer
used the model on trade-off strategies in engineering design by Otto and Antonsson (1991). The
37
criterion was scaled from 0 to 10 with 10 being the highest and likewise, the ability to satisfy the
criterion was also scaled from 0 to 10 with 10 being the highest.
The computation that will be used for ranking for the ability to satisfy criterion of each trade-off:
Higher Value − Lower Value

% difference = × 10
Higher Value
(Equation 3.1)
Subordinate Rank = Governing Rank − (% difference × 10)
(Equation 3.2)
The governing rank is the subjective value set by the designers. It depends on the designer’s
own discrepancy on ranking the importance of each constraint. The subordinate rank in
Equation 3-2 is a variable that corresponds to its percentage distance from the governing rank
along the ranking scale.
The designers performed an initial evaluation of the three (3) tradeoffs based on the constraints
above and came up with the raw designer’s ranking shown in the table below.

3.5 Tradeoff Assessment

The significance of this assessment is to compare which of the following trade-offs can satisfy
the design constraints. Since the criterion’s importance is subjective, its value will depend on the
client and the designer’s decision and agreement. The designer gives an importance factor of 10
in safety due to the client’s decision to minimize the deflection of the structure. The economical
and constructability constraint has an importance factor of 9 each since the client wanted a safe
yet economical and within the project schedule. And for the environmental, it has an
importance factor of 8.
3.5.1 Economic Assessment

The designer believes that the flat slab system should have a lower material cost compared to
the one-way and Conventional Two-Way slabs since the flat slab doesn’t have beam members
thus, making the cost for formworks less compared to others, and rebar cost less than the
others. The least ranking in this constraint is the Conventional One-Way slab.
3.5.2 Sustainability Assessment

In the structural safety of the project, the designer believes that the Conventional One-Way slab
will give the least magnitude of deflection since it has several members that can transfer the
loadings indirectly to the columns. The least ranking in this constraint is the flat slab.
39
3.5.3 Constructability Assessment
The constructability of each method depends on the structural design of the slab and beams.
Since the flat slab is less complex in construction compared to the other two, the flat slab
governs the ranking in this constraint and the Conventional One-Way slab has the least ranking.
3.5.4 Structural Safety Assessment

The environmental safety deals with the forces and moments created by seismic loadings and
factors. In this constraint, the designer believes that the best performing tradeoff is the one-way
slab. Since the project has been analyzed by using STAAD.Pro v8i, the result shows that the best
tradeoff in this constraint was the two-way slab.

4.5 Design of Structural Members

4.5.1 Procedure in Designing of Beams
I. Determine the values of loads, DL, LL and other loads.
II. Compute the factored load on different load combinations
88
Governing Load Combinations:
a.) 1.2D+1.6LL
b.) 1.2D+1LL+1E
III. Compute the factored moment to be resisted by the beam, Mu.
IV. Try a value of steel ratio ρ of 90 percent of ρmax, but not be less than ρmin. This value
of ρ will provide enough allowance in the actual value of ρ due to rounding-off of
the number of bars to be used so that it will not exceed the maximum ρ.

VI. Compute the value of ω, ω = ρfy/f’c
VII. Solve for the bd2;
Mu = ∅f’cωbd2 (1-0.59ω)
bd2 =
VIII. Try a ration d/b (from d = 1.5b to d = 2b), and solve for d. (round-off this value to
reasonable dimension)
89
Check also the minimum thickness of beam required by the Code; NSCP 2010
After solving for d, substitute its value to Step VI, and solve for b.
Compute the weight of the beam and compare it to the assumption made in Step II.
IX. Solve for the required steel area and number of bars.

4.5.2 Procedure in Designing Columns

Design Procedure for Short Axially Loaded Columns:
1. Identify the factored axial load Pu acting on the column.
2. Decide on the reinforcement ratio ρ that is between 0.01-0.08 as required by the code.
Determine the gross sectional area Ag of the concrete section using the assumed ρ.
Pu = φ 0.80 Ag [0.85f' c 1 − ρg + fyρg ]
3. Choose the dimensions of the cross section based on its shape. For rectangular section,
the ratio of the longer and shorter side is recommended to not exceed 3.
4. Readjust the reinforcement ratio by substituting the actual cross-sectional area. The
ration has to fall to the specified code limits.
5. Calculate the needed area of the longitudinal reinforcement ratio based on the adjusted
reinforced ratio and the chosen concrete dimension.
6. Choose the number and diameter of needed reinforcing bars. For rectangular sections, a
minimum of four bars is needed.
90
7. Design the lateral reinforcement according to the type of column, either ties or spirals.
Use the smallest of the following:
< 16db
< 48 tie db
< least dimension of column
8. Check whether the spacing between longitudinal reinforcing bars satisfies the NSCP
2010 code requirements.
4.5.3 Procedure in Designing Slab

I. Identify the uniform floor pressure (kPa) to be carried by the slab.
II. Determine the minimum slab thickness “h” from NSCP 2010.
III. Compute the weight of slab (kPa)
weight = yconcrete x thickness
IV. Calculate the factored moment (Mu) to be carried by the slab per meter strip
V. Compute the effective depth of the slab. Clear cover must at least 20mm
VI. Compute the required steel ratio, ρ:
Solve for Rn from Mu = ∅Rn bd2 where b= 1000 mm
0.85 f' c 2Rn

ρ= 1− 1−
fy 0.85 f' c
Solve for ρmax and ρmin
91
 If ρ is less than ρmax and greater than ρmin, use ρ
 If ρ is greater than ρmax , increase depth of slab to ensure ductile failure
 If ρ is less than ρmin , use ρ= ρmin
VII. Compute the require main bar spacing
As = ρbd
As 1000 (1meter strip)

N=π S=

4.6 Validation of Trade-offs
After the structure has been analyzed and each member has been designed, results for costs
have been computed as well as the duration of the project. The deflection of each trade-off is
also acquired. The designer is going to validate the initial estimates made to come up with the
best decision.

CHAPTER 5: FINAL DESIGN
5.1 Final Design
The designer finalized the design corresponds to the codes and standards provided by the
National Building Code of the Philippines and the National Structural Code of the Philippines.
The structural members of the structure are tested and were able to pass the necessary test for
adequacy needed for the design. The details of the structural members were specified in this
project proposal and the cost estimates were also provided for the client.
On the construction phase of the project, the formation of the formworks will be the first
activity to accomplish per area of the building, and then next is the installation of the
reinforcements for the beam, slab and column. After that is the concrete pouring as per the
design for the structure.
The final structural design to be used in the construction is presented in the following sheets.
This includes the final framing plan and detailing of each member for the winning trade off.
