ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF A DUPLEX BUILDING USING STAAD.PRO

Abstract

The aim of the project is to do analysis and design of a Duplex building
using software. Design for beams, columns and footings were carried out using the
Software STAAD Pro. Drawings were done using Auto-CAD. AutoCAD is a software
application for 2D and 3D design and drafting and STAAD pro is a structural analysis
and design computer program. It is one of the leading structural analysis and
design software which supports more than 100 steel, concrete and timber design codes
and has the largest worldwide user base. The building will be designed for static loads
i.e., dead load live load and floor load etc. The detailed study of seismology will also be
taken into consideration. The dead loads, live loads and seismic load will be determined
using IS-456, IS-875, IS-13920, and IS-1893. Structural design was accomplished for
reinforced concrete slabs, beams, columns and footings, based on this stress analysis and
its resultants. Design drawings were prepared, and specifications for construction. In the
final analysis of the project, we will be able to get find the detailing of reinforcement of
the beams, columns footing from the STAAD Pro. the slabs form the manual designing.
This reinforcement detailing will be clearly shown using the AutoCAD.
