DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF G+3 RESIDENTIAL BUILDING BY S.MAHAMMAD FROM RAJIV GAND...Mahammad2251
Structural design is the primary aspect of civil engineering. The foremost basic in
structural engineering is the design of simple basic components and members of a building viz., Slabs,
Beams, Columns and Footings. In order to design them, it is important to first obtain the plan of the
particular building. Thereby depending on the suitability; plan layout of beams and the position of
columns are fixed.
This document discusses the design of compression members under uniaxial bending. It notes that columns are rarely under pure axial compression due to eccentricities from rigid frame action or accidental loading. Columns can experience uniaxial or biaxial bending based on the loading. The behavior depends on the relative magnitudes of the bending moment and axial load, which determine the position of the neutral axis. Methods for designing eccentrically loaded short columns include using equations that calculate the neutral axis position and failure mode, or using interaction diagrams that graphically show the safe ranges of moment and axial load.

Collapse propagation in bridge structures. A semi-analytical modelDCEE2017
Michele Brun.
We consider the advance of a transition flexural wave through a beam-like periodically supported slender structure. The
collapse of a bridge structure is modeled as a steady-state propagation of a transition wave within a slender structure. The problem is
governed by fourth-order partial differential equations and both propagating and evanescent waves are included in the general solution. It is
shown that the problem can be expressed within a class of functional equations of the Wiener-Hopf type . Three different propagation
regimes are found: subsonic, intersonic and supersonic and it is shown that propagation is restricted to the intersonic regime where part of the
energy is released to the damaged structure.
Applications to the study of the collapse of the San Saba bridge in Texas shows the validity of the model.

It proposes consolidating several smaller departments into two larger divisions to remove redundant manager and supervisor roles. This restructuring is estimated to save the company $500,000 per year in personnel expenses.
There are several main types of bridge superstructures including beam bridges, arch bridges, truss bridges, suspension bridges, cable-stayed bridges, cantilever bridges, and moveable bridges. Beam bridges use simple beams to span distances, while arch bridges use curved structures to support weight. Truss bridges employ a framework of connected elements in triangles to support loads across a gap.
Bridge Engineering and Extreme Events: Wind effects on bridge decks Julianne Crawford
Following a series of catastrophic bridge failures, the adverse effects of wind loading on bridges has become a widely discussed topic in the realm of bridge design and research. Currently however, the majority of research focuses on the contribution of wind in long span bridge design. This is primarily because long span bridges have a greater inherent tendency to become aerodynamically unstable. Nonetheless, wind can also contribute to the shear and moment of short span bridges, thereby influencing the limit state of various components in these short span bridge systems. To narrow this scope, the following presentation focuses specifically on the contributions of wind to the shear and moment of slab and girder bridge decks. These contributions are quantified by a model that calculates the shear and moment due to wind loads for a number of variable parameters including angle of impact, bridge height, span length, and deck thickness. Ultimately, it is found that angle of attack has the greatest impact on moment, while span length has the greatest impact on shear about center span.
The document discusses the history and importance of chocolate in human civilization. It notes that chocolate originated in Mesoamerica over 3000 years ago and was prized by the Aztecs and Mayans for its taste. Cocoa beans were used as currency and their cultivation was tightly regulated. The Spanish brought cocoa to Europe in the 16th century, starting its global spread and the development of the chocolate industry.

This document appears to be a report submitted by a student named Oliver M. Olhon to his instructor Engr. Genelyn Caritos about bridge engineering. It includes sections on the superstructure of a bridge including the deck, primary and secondary members, and wearing surface. It also covers the substructure including pier columns, abutments, bearings, pedestals, footings, approach slabs, piled footings, pile caps, traffic barriers, stems, and wingwalls.
This document discusses the design of flat plate slabs. Flat plates are concrete slabs that are carried directly by columns without beams or girders. They are commonly used for spans up to 25 feet and loads up to 100 pounds per square foot. The load is directly transferred to the columns, making punching shear at the column connections critical. Proper reinforcement detailing is required between the slab and columns. Moment determination and shear design are important steps in the flat plate slab design process. Advantages include simplified formwork and reduced story height, while limitations include increased thickness and weight.
This presentation summarizes the key aspects of one-way slab design. It defines one-way slabs as having an aspect ratio of 2:1 or greater, with bending primarily along the long axis. The presentation discusses the types of one-way slabs including solid, hollow, and ribbed. It also outlines the design considerations for one-way slabs according to the ACI code, including minimum thickness, reinforcement ratios, and bar spacing. An example problem demonstrates how to design a one-way slab for a given set of loading and dimensional conditions.

This document summarizes the key aspects of flat slab construction and design according to Indian code IS 456-2000. It defines flat slabs as slabs that are directly supported by columns without beams, and describes four common types based on whether drops and column heads are used. The main topics covered include guidelines for proportioning flat slabs, methods for determining bending moments and shear forces, requirements for slab reinforcement, and an example problem demonstrating the design of an interior flat slab panel.
This document discusses the design of reinforced concrete slabs. It begins by introducing different types of slabs used in construction like solid slabs, flat slabs, ribbed slabs, and waffle slabs. It then covers simplified analysis methods for slabs spanning in one or two directions using load and moment coefficients. The document also addresses shear design in slabs, discussing shear stresses and the need for shear reinforcement. It concludes by discussing punching shear analysis around concentrated loads and the importance of limiting span-depth ratios to control deflections in slabs.
The document summarizes the design procedures for slab systems according to the ACI 318 Code, including:
1) The direct design method and equivalent frame method for determining moments at critical sections.
2) Distributing the total design moment between positive and negative moments.
3) Distributing moments laterally between column strips, middle strips, and beams.
4) A 5-step basic design procedure involving determining moments, distributing moments, sizing reinforcement, and designing beams if present.
1. The panel size is 5m x 7m without drop or column head.
2. The width of the column strip is calculated as 0.25x7m = 1.75m on each side of the column.
3. The required reinforcement is calculated for bending moments in the column strip and middle strip along the longer and shorter spans based on the loading and design parameters. The reinforcement details are shown in diagrams.
This document provides information on the design of reinforced concrete columns, including:
- Columns transmit loads vertically to foundations and may resist both compression and bending. Common cross-sections are square, circular and rectangular.
- Columns are classified as braced or unbraced depending on lateral stability, and short or slender based on buckling resistance. Short column design considers axial load capacity while slender column design accounts for second-order effects.
- Reinforcement details include minimum longitudinal bar size and spacing and design of lateral ties. Slender column design determines loadings and calculates moments from stiffness, deflection and biaxial bending effects. Design charts are used to select reinforcement for columns under axial and uniaxial
This document discusses the design of flat slab structures with and without slab drops. It begins with an introduction to flat slabs and their components. It then outlines the design methodology and considerations. The main body compares the bending moments and steel requirements for interior and exterior panels of flat slabs without drops and with drops, for slab sizes of 20x20m, 40x40m, and 60x60m. The key findings are that flat slabs without drops require less steel in the middle strips compared to flat slabs with drops, but flat slabs with drops have lower bending moments and steel requirements in the column strips.
This document summarizes the key components and design process of flat slab construction without slab drops. It provides examples of designing interior and exterior panels of sizes 5x5m, 10x10m, and 15x15m for a 20x20m flat slab without drops. The design process involves determining slab depth, load calculations, moment distribution, and reinforcement sizing. Tables are included that show bending moments and steel areas for column strips and middle strips of the example panels. Interior panels have negative and positive moments in both directions while exterior panels only have negative moments in the column strip and positive moments in the middle strip.

Flat slabs were originally invented in the U.S. in 1906 and load tested between 1910-1920. They are reinforced concrete slabs supported by columns without beams. Flat slabs offer advantages like reduced construction costs, faster construction, and greater architectural freedom. They are classified as solid flat slab, solid flat slab with drop panels, solid flat slab with column heads, or banded flat slab. Analysis and design of flat slabs involves distributing moments from equivalent frame analysis to slab components and checking shear and punching resistance.
This document provides guidelines for the design of beams and slabs according to IS: 456-1978. It discusses effective span calculations, deflection limits, slenderness limits, reinforcement requirements, cover and spacing of reinforcement, and curtailment of tension reinforcement. The key points are:
- Effective span depends on support conditions and is the distance between centerlines of supports or clear distance plus effective depth.
- Deflection limits are ensured by restricting span-to-depth ratios, which vary based on reinforcement type and size.
- Shear reinforcement must be provided at a maximum spacing of 0.75d or 450mm for vertical stirrups.
- Minimum reinforcement is 0.15% of cross-

It begins by defining detailing as the preparation of working drawings showing the size and location of reinforcement. Good detailing ensures reinforcement and concrete interact efficiently. The document then discusses sources of tension in concrete structures from various loading conditions like bending, shear, and connections. It provides equations from AS3600-2009 for calculating minimum development lengths for reinforcing bars to develop their yield strength based on bar size, concrete strength, and transverse reinforcement. It also discusses lap splice requirements. In summary, the document provides best practice guidelines for detailing reinforcement to efficiently resist loads and control cracking in concrete structures.
This document discusses the design of one-way reinforced concrete slabs. It defines one-way slabs as slabs supported on two opposite sides where loads are transferred in the short direction.

Design considerations like truss depth, economic spans, cross section shapes, and wind bracing are covered. The chapter concludes with sections on determining member forces, design principles, and specific design procedures.

In human communication, explanations serve to increase understanding, overcome communication barriers, and build trust. They are, in most cases, dialogues. In computer science, AI explanations (“XAI”) map how an AI system expresses underlying logic, algorithmic processing, and data sources that make up its outputs. One-way communication.
How do we craft designs that "explain" concepts and respond to users’ intent? Can AI identify, elicit and apply relevant user contexts, to help us understand AI outputs? How do explanations become two-way?
We must create experiences with systems that will be required to respect user needs and dynamically explain logic and seek understanding. This is a significant challenge that, at its heart, needs UX leadership. The safety, trust, and understandability of systems we design hinge on the way we craft models for explanation.

1. Definition
FLAT SLABS are slabs with or without drops supported generally without beams
by columns with or without column heads.
The slabs may be solid or have recesses formed on the soffit to give waffle slab.
The slab is normally thicker than that required for normal solid floor slab
construction, but the omission of beams facilitates provision of a smaller storey
height for a given clear height, and the construction and provision of formwork
simpler.
Figure 1.1 illustrates the flat slab construction with its various features.

2. Dimensional Considerations
(i) The ratio of the longer to the shorter span should not exceed 2 ;
thereby guaranteeing two-way spanning behaviour.
(ii) Design moments may be determined by:
equivalent frame method
simplified method
finite elements analysis.
(iii) The effective dimension lh of the column head is defined as the lesser of
the actual dimension, lho, or lh,max = lc + 2(dh – 40)
Where; lc (= hc) = actual column dimension measured
in the same direction as lh for a flared head, lho is
measured 40 mm below the slab or drop.

(iv) The effective diameter of a column or a column head is defined as follows:
a. for a column, the diameter of a circle whose area equals the area of the
column
b. for a column head, the diameter of the column head based on the effective
dimensions defined in (iii) above.
The effective diameter of the column head shall be not more than ¼ of the
shorter span framing into the column.
(v) Drop panels only influence the distribution of moments if the smaller
dimension of the drop is at least equal to one-third of the smaller panel
dimension. Smaller drops, however, provide enhanced resistance against
punching shear.
(vi) The panel thickness is controlled by the deflection. The thickness should,
however, not be less than 125 mm.

It is normally sufficient to consider only a single load case where all spans are subject to
maximum design load, viz:
The flat slab can then be analysed using either the Frame Analysis Method or the
Simplified Method.
The Frame Analysis Method
The structure is divided longitudinally and transversely into frames consisting of columns
and strips of slab – width of strips being the centre-line distance between adjacent
panels. The entire frame or sub-frame may be analysed by the moment distribution
approach.
Each of the strips is assumed to carry uniformly distributed load equivalent to .

3. Analysis
The Simplified Method
For a flat slab structure whose lateral stability is not dependent on the slab-column
connections, viz. it is braced by walls, the Table 3.19 in BS 8110 may be used
provided:
a. the design is based on a single load case
b. the structure has at least three rows of panel of approximately equal spans in
the direction considered.
If the situation is otherwise, the designer may use the Frame Analysis Method and
moment distribution.

4. Design and detailing for Bending Moment
i) Division of Panels and Bending Moments
Flat slab panels are divided into column strips and middle strips as shown in Figure 1.3
(Fig. 3.12 of BS 8110). Drops should be ignored if the smaller dimension of the drop
is less than one-third of the smaller dimension of the panel.
Design moments obtained from Table 3.19 (BS 8110) are divided between column and
middle strips in accordance with Table 3.20 (BS 8110). Modifications to allow for
increased width of middle strip owing to existence of drops should be made where
necessary – the design moments resisted by the middle strip should be increased
proportionately.
The design moments resisted by the column strip should then be adjusted such that the
total positive and total negative moments remain constant.

ii) Limitation of Negative Design Moments
Negative moments greater than those at distance hc/2 from the centre-line of the column
may be ignored providing the sum of the maximum positive design moment and the
average of the negative design moments in any one span of the slab for the whole
panel width is not less than:
Where: l1 = panel length parallel to span, measured from column centres
l2 = panel width measured from centres of columns.
If the above condition is not fulfilled, the negative design moments should be increased
to the value of the above.
CEH7422; TOPIC 2A-FLAT SLAB DESIGN
4. Design and detailing for Bending Moment
iii) Design of Internal Panels
The column and middle strips should be designed to withstand the design moments based
on Tables 3.19 and 3.20 of BS 8110.
For an internal panel, two-thirds of the amount of reinforcement required to resist the
negative design moment in the column strip should be placed in a central zone of
width equal to one-half the column strip.
Detailing is then done in accordance with the simplified rules of Clause 3.12.10.3.1. No or
negligible moments need to be transferred to columns.
iv) Design of Edge Panels
The design is similar to that of an internal panel. Moments are obtainable from Table 3.19
(BS 8110).
Since there are no edge beams, the capacity to withstand edge moments is limited by the
ability to transfer the edge moments to the column, viz. the moment transfer capacity.
CEH7422; TOPIC 2A-FLAT SLAB DESIGN

. In flat slabs, moments will only be able to be transferred between a slab and an edge or
corner column through a column strip considerably narrower than that appropriate for
an internal panel. The breadth of this strip, be, for various typical cases is shown in
Figure 3.13 of BS 8110. The value of be should never be taken as greater than the
column strip width appropriate for an interior panel.
The maximum design moment, Mt,max, that can be transferred to a column through the strip
is given by:
Mt,max = 0.15bed2fcu; where d is that appropriate for top reinforcement.
Mt,max ≥ 50% the design moments obtained using the equivalent frame analysis,
or 70% of value from the grillage or finite element analysis. If Mtmax is found to be
less than this, the structural arrangements should be changed.
Mt,max > Mapplied; otherwise Mapplied in the slab should be reduced to the limiting
value of Mt,max, and the positive moments in the span adjusted accordingly.
Moments in excess of Mt,max may only be transferred to a column if an edge beam or strip
of a slab along the free edge is reinforced in accordance with Section 2.4 of BS 8110
(Part 2) to carry extra moments into the column by torsion.

5. Shear force and Shear resistance
(i) Punching shear around the column is the critical consideration in flat slabs.
(ii) Shear stresses at slab / internal column connections may be increased to allow for
effects of moment transfer as stipulated below:
(a) The design effective shear force Veff at the interface perimeter should be taken
CEH7422; TOPIC 2A-FLAT SLAB DESIGN
5. Shear force and Shear resistance
(b) In the absence of calculations for internal columns in braced structures of
approximately equal panel dimensions, the design effective shear force Veff;
may be taken to be:
;Vt corresponds to the case with maximum design load on all panels adjacent to the
column considered.
(iii) Shear stress at other slab-column connections may be obtained as stipulated below:
(a) For bending about an axis parallel to the free edge at corner and edge columns;
Veff = 1.25Vt
(b) For bending about an axis perpendicular to free edge (edge columns only); or
Veff = 1.4Vt; for approximately equal spans.
The maximum shear stress at column or column head face should not exceed the lesser
of 0.8√√√√fcu or 5 N/mm2.

CEH7422; TOPIC 2A-FLAT SLAB DESIGN
5. Shear force and Shear resistance
(iv) Shear under concentrated loads (punching shear) is governed by the following
considerations:
(a) Punching shear occurs on inclined faces of truncated cones or pyramids
(depending on whether load shape is circular or rectangular);
(b) It is practical to adopt rectangular failure perimeters;
c) The maximum design shear stress,
vmax = V/(uod) ≤≤≤≤ 0.8√√√√fcu ≤≤≤≤ 5 N/mm2
where; uo is the effective length of the perimeter which touches a loaded area.
(d) Nominal design shear stress, v, is given by ;
v = V/(ud); u is the effective length of the outer perimeter of zone under
consideration
first is at 1.5d from the face.
CEH7422; TOPIC 2A-FLAT SLAB DESIGN
5. Shear force and Shear resistance
(e) Provision of shear reinforcement, in form of castellated links, in the failure zone
is made for thickness exceeding 200 mm, if v >>>> vc thus:
∑∑∑∑(Asvsinαααα) ≥≥≥≥ [(v – vc)ud] / 0.87fyv; v-vc ≥≥≥≥ 0.4 Mpa ; where; α is angle
between shear reinforcement and plane of slab.
The reinforcement is to be distributed evenly on at least two perimeters.
The design procedure entails the successive checking starting from the
inner-most, as illustrated in Figure 3.17 (BS 8110).
(v) Modification of effective perimeter to allow for holes:
When openings in slabs or footings (Figure 3.18 – BS 8110) are located at a
distance less than 6d (d being the effective depth of the slab) from the edge of a
concentrated load, then part of the perimeter which is enclosed by radial
projections from the centroid of the loaded area to the openings is
considered ineffective in resisting shear.
Where a single hole is adjacent to the column and its greatest width is less than one-
quarter of the column side or one-half of the slab depth, whichever is the lesser, its
presence may be ignored.

(vi) Effective perimeter close to a free edge:
Where a concentrated load is located close to a free edge, the effective length of
a perimeter should be taken as the lesser of the two illustrated in Figure 3.19 (BS
8110). The same principle may be adopted for corner columns.

fs = 5 x 250 x 3782.5 / (8 x 3919.5) = 150.8 N/mm2 (Table 3.11 BS 8110)
The modification factor is: 0.55 + (477 - 150.8) / [120(0.9 + 1.61)] = 1.63 (Table 3.11
BS 8110)
Allowable span/d ratio = 1.63 x 26 = 42.4
Actual span/d ratio = 6000/151 = 39.7
The slab is satisfactory with respect to deflection
