Structural design of G+4 Apartment + shop building

Abstract

A structural designer’s task is mainly to predict the loads that the structure to be built will carry throughout its service period, to estimate the amount of these loads with a series of empirical formulas which are given in different codes and with the use of preliminary geometric equations. This project deals about the structural analysis and design of Structural design of G+4 Apartment + shop building considering all the internal and external effects according to ES EN 2015. Then the structure is exposed to a worst-case combination or existence scenario of these loads, analyzed for internal actions that will develop in the different structural parts. Finally these parts are proportioned geometrically and reinforced with steel bars in such a way that they could resist the internal actions shear, bending moment and axial force. The roof structure is analyzed and designed under the action of own weight and the live loads. The slabs and stair is designed under the action of dead and live load. The loads that come from roof, slab and stair will be transferred to the beam then to column and footing frame together. The frame structure is analyzed under the combined action of these load and the internal actions in the frame members is determined. Finally, the frame members are designed in such a way that they could resist these internal actions
