1.Introduction
Design report presents the analysis and design of 4-story office building located in the city of
Guwahati, India. It is designed to meet both strength and serviceability requirements when
subjected to gravity loads and to prevent collapse under lateral loads. The plan of the building
is 14m*14m.
The lateral force resisting system in both directions of the plan is a shear wall in the outer
frames and a core shear wall which surrounds the elevator. For strength design, Limit State
Method of Design(LSM) IS 456: 2000 is used and to achieve the objective of earthquake
resistant design IS 1893(part 1): 2016 provisions are followed, and finally provisions for ductile
detailing are followed as per IS 13920: 2016.
All the structural load combinations are considered, and the members are designed to follow a
particular strength hierarchy such that brittle failure modes are delayed and ductile failure
modes are formed first and as a result, sufficient number of plastic hinges are formed to
dissipate energy and to ensure overall ductile failure. For serviceability span to depth ratio
limits mentioned in the codes are followed
The superstructure consists of moment resisting frame and shear walls, moment resisting
frames are used to resist gravity loads and shear walls are used to resist displacement type of
loading and both the systems are ductile. An Etabs model is used to analyze the entire building,
and the forces are used for the design of all the elements which is followed by detailing of all
the elements.
The building is subjected to dead, live and earthquake loads and the elements are designed for
the critical combination of all the three types of load which is combined as per IS-456:2000
and IS-1893:2016. The design results obtained from the Etabs model are validated with hand
calculation for the critical section in addition to this an equivalent static method analysis is also
validated with the model.

Following methods are used for the earthquake analysis

1. Equivalent static method.
2. Response spectra method.

Following codes are followed

1. IS-456:2000
2. IS-1893(part1):2016
3. IS-875 part 1 and 2
4. IS-13920: 2016

2. Problem Statement and Assumptions

This report outlines the design of a four-story concrete frame office building located in
Guwahati, India. The buildings plan dimensions are 14m by 14m, with column spacing along
both directions as shown in the figure 1. Typical story height is 3.5m. Lateral load resisting
shear wall is also shown in the fig. The floor system consists of a concrete floor deck which
has the uniform thickness of 150mm on all the stories except roof where it is 125mm which is
supported on beams. A small duct of size 1.75m by 0.6m is provided for the purpose of
ventilation.
All the assumptions made in the code are followed, all the columns rest on footing which is
not designed, effect of soil structure interaction is ignored, staircase is not modeled, diaphragm
is assumed rigid, joint is not designed, modulus of elasticity of concrete is not as per the IS456
(i.e. 5000(fck)0.5) but is as per the Etabs

Notes:
 The maximum span of the beam is 3.5m.
 The minimum span of the beam is 1.75m.
 All beams are continuous
 The effective length of column is as per the table 28 of IS456: 2000
 The cross section obtained is for the maximum design value from analysis and capacity
design.
 Shear wall requires end block element from the analysis.
 Design of slab is not done.
 Amount of longitudinal reinforcement provided is more than minimum and less than
maximum.
 Spacing and other comparison study for each element is in Appendix.

4.Loading
4.1 Gravity loads
Dead, live, roof loads are calculated as per IS 875 part 1,2. External wall is accounted as
distributed load on the beam with the assumption that half load acts on the story below and half
above, with the same assumption beam loads and column loads are lumped at each floor level
for dynamic analysis. The following fig shows the load distribution

Figure 2 floor finish load on all story's and roof

In the above fig. only floor finish load is shown as Etabs considers the self-weight of all its
element if the self-weight multiplier is kept as 1, while the user has to define other loads where
self-weight multiplier is kept zero as shown in the fig. below

Figure 3 Self- weight multiplier

 Seismic Design Of Multi-story Building

Live load on the floors is as per IS 875- part II in addition to this live load due to movable
internal partition wall of 1kN/m^2 is also considered as per clause. Live load on roof is
neglected for earthquake analysis as per IS 1893-2016 clause while it is considered for gravity
load analysis.

4.2 Seismic loading:

Seismic loading is considered as per IS 1893-2016 which requires the region in which the
building is located, importance of the building, soil type and the type of lateral load resisting
system. From clause (6.4)

Figure 6 Defining seismic load in X and Y direction

Combination of above earthquake loads is done as per clause (6.3.2), which in turn is then
combined with the other loads as per IS456

Figure 7 load combinations

 Seismic Design Of Multi-story Building

5. Type of Analysis and Design Process

Following different type of analysis is done
 Due to gravity loads only, to arrive at the preliminary size of the section
 Due to earthquake loads only along x and y-direction to compare the results with the
equivalent static method
 Dynamic analysis using Response spectrum method

Figure 8 List of load cases

Gravity load analysis was done just to start with some size of a section, and since the moment
resisting frames are solely used to resist gravity loads, it became necessary to provide the
sections which would suffice the gravity load requirement. Further, the same sections were
used under earthquake loading and, were checked for their suitability. However, the sections
provided were not sufficient, and their size had to be increased under dynamic and equivalent
static load method. Type of analysis was linear static.
Earthquake analysis is done considering linear static analysis and response spectrum method
as per clause(7.6) and clause (7.7.5) of IS-1893: 2016.
Equivalent static method is done along both x and y-direction and the base shear obtained is
crosschecked with hand calculation which is shown in the Appendix, also the distribution of
shear forces along the story height are matched with hand calculation.
Response spectrum analysis requires defining the response spectra in the Etabs depending on
the various factors mentioned above in seismic loading which is followed by the modal analysis

Figure 9 Response Spectrum Analysis

From the results obtained after modal analysis it was in confirmation with the clause(7.1),
Table 6 i.e. the first three modes together contribute at least 65 percent mass participation factor
in each principal direction, and the fundamental natural time period of the building in the two
principal plan directions are away from each other by at least 10 percent of the larger value.

 As per IS 875:1987 Part 2 -clause 3.1.2, internal partion load is considered as live load.

Calculation of Seismic Weight of a Building

 Calculation of dead load
 Floor
 Floor area = 14*14-3.5*3.5-0.6*1.75 = 182.7 m2

 Load due to slab = Volume of floor × Unit weight of RCC

= Floor area × Floor thickness × Unit weight of RCC
= 182.7 × 0.15 × 25
= 685.125 kN
 Load due to floor finish = Floor area × Floor Finishing load
= 182.7*1.5
= 274.05 kN
 Load due to wall = Total perimeter x Width x Height x Unit wt of Wall
= (56-21) *0.25*(3.5-0.4) *18
= 488.25 kN
 Load due to shear wall = No of shear wall x width x height x unit weight
= 8*3.5*3.5*0.25*25
= 612.5 kN
 Load due to column = No of column x vol of column x unit weight
= 30*0.45*0.45*(3.5-.55) *25
= 448 kN
 Load due to Beam = Total perimeter x Beam cross section x unit weight
= 87.9*0.4*0.55*25
= 490.87 kN
 Total Dead load on floor = 685.125 + 274.05 + 488.25 + 612.5 + 354 + 490.87
= 2998.795 kN
 Roof
 Floor area = 14*14-3.5*3.5-0.6*1.75 = 182.7 m2
 Load due to slab = Volume of floor × Unit weight of RCC
= Floor area × Floor thickness × Unit weight of RCC
= 182.7 × 0.125 × 25

= 570.93 kN
 Load due to floor finish = Floor area × Floor Finishing load
= 182.7*1.0
= 182.7 kN
 Load due to wall = Total perimeter x Width x Height x Unit wt of Wall
= ((56-21) *0.25*(3.5-0.4) *18)/2 = 244.125 kN

 Load due to shear wall = No of shear wall x width x height x unit weight
= (8*3.5*3.5*0.25*25)/2
= 306.25 kN
 Load due to column = No of column x vol of column x unit weight
= (30*0.6*0.6*(3.5-.55) *25)/2
= 224 kN
 Load due to Beam = Total perimeter x Beam cross section x unit weight
= (89.25*0.4*0.55*25)/2

 Total Dead load on floor = 570.93 + 182.7 + 244.125 + 306.25 + 224 + 245.435
= 1773.44 kN

 Calculation of live load

 Floor
 Live load on floor = Floor area × Live load(floors)
= 182.7*4
= 730.8 kN
 Live load on floor due to partitions
= Floor area × Internal partion load
= 182.7 × 1
= 182.7 kN
 Total live load on floors = 730.8 + 182.7 = 913.5 kN
 Roof = 0 kN (Neglected as per IS 1893:2016 Part 1 clause 7.3.2)

 Total seismic weight of floors = Dead load + 50% live load (IS 1893:2016 Part 1 clause
7.3.2)
= 2998.795 + 0.5*913.5
Total seismic weight of floors = 3455.545 kN
 Total seismic weight of roof = Dead load + Live load
Total seismic weight of roof = 1773.44 + 0 kN = 1773.44 kN
 Seismic weight of building = 3×Total seismic weight of floors + Total seismic weight
