Structural G+5 Residential Building in Addis Ababa

Abstract

This project deals about the structural analysis and design of G+5 Residential building considering all the external and internal effects according to EBCS 2015. The project is located in Addis Ababa. It includes wind load analysis The proper design for each structural component is also carried out. Slab analysis and design, staircase analysis and design is carried out manually. Frame analysis was carried out by using ETABS commercial software and lateral load analysis. Finally, the foundation for the structure was designed. From the analysis, we observed that the structure is designed safely and economically under the exposed load. Based on the output from ETABS software it is selected that, isolated footing is the most compatible for the bearing capacity of the soil. In a view of these analysis and design producer, it is essential to use soft wares like ETABS in order to save time and accuracy. Finally, it is recommended that, it is appreciated to incorporate such kind of project for further experience of the student and it is better to come up with the design data which have the necessary information
