 ABSTRACT

Any construction project to begin with starts with the Layout of the building or
structure followed by Design and Analysis of the structure which is succeeded by
cost estimation and planning for the said project. This project involves the layout,
design, analysis, planning and cost estimation of a G+1 residential building
located in DAUD NAGAR LUCKNOW

The layout of the proposed G+1 residential building is based on a plot of size
15M x 20M ‘. It is used to build a G+1 residential building. The ground floor of
the building will be used as parking with 3BHK. All the drafting was done using
AutoCAD. Also these drawings made on AutoCAD also served as a base for
transfer of the structure for analysis and design into STAAD Pro.

The analysis and design of the entire structure has been completed using STAAD
pro. The results include the various forces acting on various members as well
various schedules for various members. Also using the software we got the
concrete take-off as well as the weight of the various reinforcement bars thus
easing the load of cost estimation. The foundation has been designed as an
isolated footing using soil condition as medium. The foundation design values
were calculated using STAAD Foundation.

The cost estimate for the project has been calculated using Centre Line Method in
Microsoft Excel. For the Abstract cost CPWD Schedule of rates has been
followed and a total cost of Rs. 9517974 has been calculated.

 CHAPTER 3 DESIGN

3.1 Architectural Design

Architectural Design refers to the process of creatively and technically designing

buildings and other structures. It involves conceptualizing, planning, and detailing
the physical, functional, and aesthetic aspects of a building. Architectural design
integrates considerations such as spatial relationships, structural integrity,
environmental impact, building codes, and user requirements to create a cohesive
and efficient design solution.

In the context of rainwater harvesting systems for G+1 buildings, architectural

design plays a crucial role in determining how rainwater collection, storage, and
distribution systems are integrated into the building's overall design. This includes
considerations of roof design, building orientation, site analysis, safety,
accessibility, scalability, and aesthetic integration. The goal is to optimize the
building's layout and structure to maximize rainwater harvesting efficiency while
meeting architectural and regulatory standards.

3.2 Structural Design

Structural Design involves the meticulous process of creating a building's

framework to ensure it can safely and efficiently support all loads and forces it
will encounter during its lifespan. This discipline combines engineering principles
with architectural requirements to create a stable, durable, and functional
structure.

In the context of designing a G+1 building with a rainwater harvesting system,

structural design focuses on ensuring that all structural elements—such as
foundations, beams, columns, and slabs—are capable of handling both the usual
building loads and the additional loads introduced by the rainwater harvesting
system. Key considerations include load-bearing capacity, material selection,
foundation integrity, roof strength, and compliance with safety and building
regulations.

Here's a detailed look at the key components involved in structural design for
such a building:

1.Load-Bearing Capacity: Ensure the structure can support the weight of the
building, occupants, furniture, and additional loads from rainwater tanks.
2.Material Selection: Choose materials that provide the necessary strength,
durability, and resilience against environmental conditions.
3.Foundation Design: Create a foundation that can distribute the building's load
evenly and handle the additional weight from water storage systems.
4.Roof Structure: Design the roof to support rainwater collection systems,
ensuring it can bear the load of water collection components.
5.Water Tank Supports: Include sturdy supports for rainwater tanks, ensuring they
can hold the full water capacity safely.
6.Integration with Building Systems: Ensure the structural design is compatible
with plumbing, electrical, and other building systems.
7.Seismic and Wind Resistance: Design the structure to withstand seismic and
wind forces, adhering to local building codes.
8.Safety Factors: Incorporate additional safety margins to account for unexpected
loads or environmental stresses.
9.Maintenance Access: Provide accessible points for the inspection and
maintenance of structural elements and rainwater systems.
10.Sustainability Considerations: Use eco-friendly materials and sustainable
design practices to minimize environmental impact.

16
11.Regulatory Compliance: Ensure the design meets all local building codes and
regulations.
12.Durability: Design for long-term use, selecting materials and methods that
enhance the building's lifespan.
13.Thermal Performance: Consider the building’s thermal efficiency,
incorporating insulation and other measures.
14.Waterproofing: Implement effective waterproofing to protect structural
elements from water damage.
15.Load Distribution: Plan for even load distribution to prevent stress
concentrations that could lead to structural failure.

 CHAPTER 7 : CONCLUSION
This project includes the layout of G+1 residential building using AutoCAD,
Analysis and Design using STAAD Pro and concludes with the cost estimate for
the entire project.
The layout of the proposed G+1 residential building is based on a plot of size
15M X 20M located at DAUD NAGAR LUCKNOW Previously the plan it will
be used as a single - storeyed residential building.. All the drafting was done using
AutoCAD. Also these drawings made on AutoCAD also served as a base for
transfer of the structure for analysis and design into STAAD Pro.
The analysis and design of the entire structure has been completed using STAAD
pro. The results include the various forces acting on various members as well
various schedules for various members. Also using the software we got the
concrete take-off as well as the weight of the various reinforcement bars thus
easing the load of cost estimation. The foundation has been designed as an
isolated footing using soil condition as medium. The foundation design values
were calculated using STAAD Foundation.
The cost estimate for the project has been calculated using Centre Line Method in
Microsoft Excel. For the Abstract cost pwd Schedule of rates has been followed
