Figure III.1.1: Critical Column: Load Calculation Dead Load

This document summarizes load calculations for a building including dead loads, live loads, and total loads for each floor. It then calculates the factored total load and designs a critical column to support this load, determining its required cross-sectional area and adopting a size of 500x500 mm. It also summarizes the preliminary design of a staircase, determining its overall depth and tread/riser dimensions.

Total 273.886

Live Load
Taking live load = 4 KN/m2
Live load calculation is shown in table III.2.
Floor Calculation Load (KN)
Semi-basement 6.325*6.553*4 165.791

Ground 6.325*6.553*4*0.9 149.212


First 6.325*6.553*4*0.8 132.633

Total Load
Total load calculation is shown in table III.1.3.

Floor Dead (KN) Live (KN) Total (KN)

Ground 273.886 149.212 423.098

Fourth 273.886 99.475 373.361

Top Floor 273.886 99.475 373.361

Total 2779.317
Table III.1.3: Total Load Calculation

Total factored load = 1.5*2779.317


= 4168.975 KN
Increasing by 30 % for EQ,
Total load Pu = 1.3*4168.975 = 5419.6675 KN
Now, we have,
Pu = 0.4*fck*(Ag- Asc) + 0.67*fy*Asc
Assuming percentage of steel, p = 4%
Then,
5419.6675*103 = 0.4*25*(Ag-0.04* Ag) + 0.67*500*0.04* Ag
Solving, we get,
Ag =235637.717 mm2
Considering a square column,
Depth (D) = Width (b) = √235637.717 = 485.425 mm
Adopt, size of the column = b*D
= (500*500) mm
3.1.1 Preliminary Design of Staircase
The plan of staircase is as shown below in fig III.1.2:

Figure III.1.2: Staircase Plan

leffective = + 813+ 3050+ 2032+ = 6200 mm


We have,
d=
Taking,
d=
=
= 310 mm
Thus, overall depth, D = d + + 20
= 310 + + 20
= 336 mm
Adopt, D = 340 mm
Thus, d = 314 mm

Here,
Tread (T) = 305 mm
Riser (R) = 152 mm
Overall depth (D) = 340 mm
