This report comprises the summary of the design of the building of Mrs. Laxmi Acharya ,
Siddharthanagar Municipality ward no. 12, Rupandehi. The Kitta no is 115.The report
consists of the design procedures adopted, the assumptions made, the inputs made in
the design and the design output. During the design, it is assumed that the client will
completely follow the architectural as well as the structural design. It is also assumed
The designer will not be responsible if any alterations to the structural system is made
by the client or the contractor without the prior written permission from the designer, or
the alterations to the non-structural system is made such that the weight of each
individual floor or the weight of the building is altered by more than 10% of the design
The design calculations and the derivations are limited to only a minimum to let the
concerned people know the methodology adopted. However, the calculations may be
provided to the client or the concerned authorities when needed, upon request.
DESIGNED BY
1. Introduction
The basic aim of the structural design is to build a structure, which is safe, fulfilling the
intended purpose during its estimated life span, economical in terms of initial and
building as a whole satisfy the criteria for strength, stability and serviceability and in
seismic areas additional criteria for ductility and energy absorption capabilities. The
overall building must be strong enough to transfer all loads through the structure to the
ground without collapsing or losing structural integrity by rupture of the material at the
instability.
Failure of one structural element (e.g., due to explosions or collisions) should not
cause progressive collapse of the entire structure. Such a building will normally
have alternate load paths or mechanisms to transfer loads safely to the foundation.
Nepal is located in the boundary of two colliding tectonic plates, namely, the Indian
Plate (Indo-Australian Plate) and the Tibetan Plate (Eurasian Plate). The Indian Plate is
constantly moving under the Tibetan Plate causing many minor and major earthquakes
in this region. As a result, Nepal has witnessed many major as well as minor
earthquakes during the past. Records of earthquakes are available in Nepal since 1255
A.D. Those records show that around 18 major earthquakes have shaken Nepal since
then. The 1833 A.D. earthquake and 1934 A.D Bihar-Nepal earthquakes were the most
The probability of occurrence of severe earthquakes is much less than that of minor
earthquakes at a given site. Many of the structures may never experience severe
earthquakes during its lifetime. Construction of any ordinary structures to resist such
economically feasible, as it may be far cheaper to repair or even rebuild the structure
after having severe and strong shaking. On the other hand, structures located in seismic
areas experience minor earthquakes rather frequently.Thus, in the event of severe and
strong shaking, the structure is allowed to have some damage which may be repairable
or even irreparable, but the structure will not be allowed to collapse completely, thereby
ensuring the safety of life and the property in the structure. In order that one does not
have to undertake frequent repair and retrofitting of the structure, the structure should
not have any damage during minor level of shaking. In case of moderate shaking the
structure is allowed to have some non-structural damage without endangering life and
property within the structure. During such event the level of damage should be such that
The structures are generally designed for much lower seismic forces than what it may
actually experience during its life time. Since the structure is expected to undergo
damage in the event of a severe shaking, reliance is placed on the inelastic response of
the structure beyond yield. Therefore, structures have to be ductile and capable of
dissipating energy through inelastic actions. Ductility can be achieved by avoiding brittle
modes of failures. Brittle modes of failures include, shear and bond failure. Thus,

7. Preliminary Design
For the analysis, dead load is also necessary which depends upon the size of member
overestimate the load nor under estimate the stiffness of the building. So, the tentative
sizes of the structural elements are determined through the preliminary design so that
the pre-assumed dimensions may not deviate considerably after analysis thus making
the final design both safe and economical. Tentative sizes of various elements have

According to Ductility code, Spacing of Stirrups in beam should not exceed d/4 or 8
times diameter of minimum size of bar adopted and should not be less than 100 mm.
So, for considering construction difficulties in actual field, it is logical to use d/4 as

Loading pattern from slab to beam can be obtained by drawing 45° offset line from each
corner. Then obtained trapezoidal as well as triangular loading are converted into
equivalent uniformly distributed load. Lateral loads on the building frames are caused
which results in inertia forces acting horizontally on the structure. But in an area like
Rupandehi wind load is not so vital so, only the lateral load due to earthquake shock is
considered in this case. For the analysis and design of earthquake action following

Load cases are the independent loadings for which the structure is explicitly analyzed.
Earthquake forces occur in random fashion in all directions. For buildings whose lateral
load resisting elements are oriented in two principal directions, it is usually sufficient to

analysis and design software. The size of beams and columns as obtained from
preliminary analysis are adjusted according to architectural need. Beam and columns
are modeled as frame element. Slabs are also modeled as shell element. The 3D model
is assumed to be fixed at tie beam level. Suitable assumptions are made and FE model
as shown in Fig 5 is developed. The first three modes of vibrations are shown in Fig 6,
7 & 8.
i. Wall Loading
Beam and column are assumed to be line element having six degree of freedom at
each node and slab is assumed to be shell element having six degree of freedom.
Loading due to wall, floor finish and live load is as shown in figure above and analysis is
(response spectrum method using IS 1893:2002 spectrum). Although the time period
from FE model is little bit higher than from codal formula, the base shear corresponding
to codal formula (time period) is imposed in the FE model for design purpose. In
regarding its complicated configuration. Base shear during dynamic analysis is less than
that of static analysis. Thus base shear due to response spectrum analysis was
multiplied by a factor equals to base shear of static analysis divided by base shear due
to dynamic analysis. The factor used is equal to 1in x direction and 1 in y direction. Load
combinations and other data are taken from IS codes. The static and dynamic analysis
is carried out to obtain member forces. The numbers of modes considered are 12 and
mass participation in both directions is more than 90% at mode 4. From the different
combinations, severe values of bending moment, shear force and axial loads are taken
The maximum top displacement under extreme load condition (EQy and EQx) is about
15.33 mm and the maximum story drift is .001861 which is in the permissible value
i. Design of slab
The slabs are kept in such a way that ly/lx is kept less than 2 such that it can be
designed as two way slab. The slab is designed manually on excel sheet based on IS
456:2000. Where, type of panel 4 indicates that the 2 adjacent edges are discontinuous.
Similarly other slab were also analyzed and designed as per IS 456:2000.The design of

in seismic resistant design. In seismic resistant design, actual forces experienced by the
