Q.
As the Structural Engineer of ABC Engineering Consulting firm, you
are required to design a residential building. The architectural drawing is a
residential apartment with one (1) suspended floor and a roof slab. The
elements of the building are casted monolithically. The design life of the
building is 50 years and the fire resistant requirement is 1 hour. Use the given
data below, design and provide sketches of all the structural elements of the
building except the foundation.
Given Data:
Floor to floor height is 3300 mm.
Nominal cover (Cm) = 30 mm
f, = 500 N/mm.
Fa = 25 N/mm?
Concrete unit wt. = 25 kN/mm.
Characteristic variable actions = 2 kN/m.
Floor finishes, ceiling and services = 1.5 kN/m?.
Assume all other parameters not given.
