1. Project Description
The project is a 2m x 2m extension to an existing two-storey residential structure with Gate. The
extension includes a reinforced concrete slab, columns on all sides, a tie beam, and a foundation
system. The design is checked against NSCP 2015 to ensure structural safety.
2. Load Analysis
2.1 Dead Load (DL)
Dead load consist of the self-weight of structural components.
• Slab Self-Weight (100mm thick): 2.4 kN/m²
Calculation:
➢ Density of reinforce concrete= 24 kN/m^3
➢ Self- weight= 0.1m x 24 kN/m^3 =2.4 kN/m²
• Floor Finishes: 1.0 kN/m²
• Ceiling Load: 0.5 kN/m²
• Total Dead Load (DL): 3.9 kN/m²
Calculation:
➢ DL= Slab self-weight + Floor Finishes + Ceiling Load
DL= 2.4 kN/m² + 1.0 kN/m² + 0.5 kN/m²
DL= 3.9 kN/m²
2.2 Live Load (LL)
• As per NSCP 2015, the minimum live load for residential floors = 2.0 kN/m²
2.3 Total Factored Load (for Strength Design)
Using NSCP 2015 Load Combination:
Calculation:
➢ U= 1.2DL+1.6LLU = 1.2DL + 1.6LL
U=1.2(3.9)+1.6(2.0)=7.88kN/m2
U= 1.2(3.9) + 1.6(2.0) = 7.88 kN/m²
Calculation:
➢ L(eff) / d greater than less than 28
200mm / 100mm =20 < 28
❖ Therefore, we can conclude the the design is ok! No deflection issues!
• Slab Moments: 0.79 kN·m/m
Using NSCP 2015 Two-way Slab Coefficient (Table 425.3.1) for a square slab with four edges
fixed:
For a square panel Lx=Ly, the coefficient a=0.025 (from NSCP Table).
Calculation:
➢ Mx= 0.025 x 7.88 x (2)^2
Mx= 0.025 x 7.88 x 4
Mx= My = 0.79 kN·m/m
• Required Steel Area: 26.1 mm²/m
Using the formula:
Assume values:
f’c= 21 MPa
fy= 415 MPa
d= 85mm (effective depth)
Calculation:
➢ As= (0.79 x10^6)/ (0.87 x 415 x 85)
As= 26.1 mm²/m
Provided:
10mm Ø bars @200mm spacing
Area of steel per bar = 78.54 mm^2
Calculation:
➢ Steel per meter = Area of steel per bar/ spacing
Steel per meter = 78.54 mm^2 / 0.2
Steel per meter = 392.7 mm²/m
❖ By comparison, The required steel area is only 26.1 mm²/m while the provided
steel area is 392.7 mm²/m. Therefore, the design is safe!
3.2 Beam Design Check
Given Data:
Beam Dimension: 100mm x 200mm
Clear Span (L): 2.0m
Effective Depth (d): 160mm (d=h-concrete cover- bar diameter)
Concrete Strength (f’c): 21 MPa
Reinforcement Used: 3-12mm Ø bars at the bottom
Concrete Cover: 25mm
• Load Calculation: 13.05 kN/m
Selfweight of Beam:
Wself= Unit Weight of the concrete x Area of the beam
Wself= 24 kN/m^3 x 0.1m x 0.2m
Wself= 0.48 kN/m
Factored Load (wu):
wu= 1.2 DL +1.6LL
wu= 1.2 (wself+ wslab) +1.6LL
wu= 1.2 (0.48 +7.88) +1.6 (2.0)
wu= 13.05 kN/m
Given:
3-12mm diameter bars
Total Provided Area:
As=3 (113.1)
As= 339.3 mm^2
Calculation:
➢ Mn= 0.9 (392.7 x 415 x (160/2))
Mn= 11.65 kN.m > Mu= 0.79 kN.m
❖ By comparison, The Nominal moment capacity is 11.65 kN.m which has a small
value compared to Maximum Moment capacity equivalent to 0.79 kN.m.
Therefore the design is safe!
3.4 Column Check
• Column Dimensions: 100mm x 200mm
• Rebars: 1@50mm, 4 @75mm, 4 @100mm, rest @150mm
Calculation:
Given that: f’c= 21MPa
Steel As= 1256mm^2 (calculated)
➢ Pn= 0.85 (21)(200x100) + 1256 (415)
Pn= 357000+ 521240
Pn= 878.24kN > Pu
❖ By comparison, The Nominal axial moment capacity is 878.24 kN.m which has a
greater value compared to Maximum axial Moment capacity equivalent to 100
kN.m. Therefore the design is safe!
