ABSTRACT
Structural design is the primary aspect of the 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. The principle objective of this project is to
analyze and design a multi-storied reinforced concrete building [G + 3 (3-dimensional
frame)] using STAAD Pro. The design involves manual load calculations, analysis and
design of the whole structure using STAAD Pro. The design methods used in STAAD-Pro
analysis are Limit State Design conforming to Indian Standard Code of Practice. Structure
considered for analysis and design is 14.90 m high hospital building located in the seismic
zone IV. In this project, we study the effect of various load combinations on the structure
by analyzing the bending moment diagrams in post processing mode. The project involves
detailed drawings of column layout, foundation drawings, slab drawings, column detailing
and beam detailing.

CHAPTER 1
1.1 INTRODUCTION:
Careful analysis and design of any structure plays an important role in its serviceability
and strength. It involves lot of manual calculations to determine the bending moment,
shear force, reactions, torsion etc. Structural design is the methodology to investigate the
stability, strength and rigidity of the structures. The main objective of the structural
analysis and design is to produce a stable structure which is capable of resisting all applied
loads without failure during its design life. If the structure is not designed or fabricated as
per the provisions, it might be possible that the actual applied loads may exceed the design
load, and the structure will probably fail to perform its intended function, with possible
serious consequences.
With the development in science, during last few decades there has been a growing
emphasis on using computer aided softwares and tools to analyze the structures. Most of
these computer aided softwares are based on FEA (Finite Element Analysis). With its
capability to solve the complex problems using matrix method along with accurate results,
researchers start taking keen interest in it and published many research articles (Al-Sabah
& Falter, 2015; Baskaran & Morley, 2007; Genikomsou & Polak, 2015; Gohnert, 2000;
Gupta, 2021; Gupta & Naval, 2020; Gupta & Singh, 2019, 2020, 2021; Hognestad, 1953;
Kwan, 2004; Park, 1964; Ramsay & Johnson, 1998; Salam Al-Sabah & Falter, 2013;
Sharma et al., 2019; A. Singh & Gupta, 2019; H. Singh et al., 2011) STAAD Pro is also
based on FEA and was firstly developed by Research Engineers International at Yorba
Linda, CA in year 1997. In late 2005, Research Engineers International was bought
by Bentley Systems.
STAAD. Pro is one of the most widely used structural analysis and design software. It
supports several steel, concrete and timber design codes (ACI 318-14, 2014; ASTM
D3039, 2017; BIS: IS 13920, 2016; BIS: IS 1893 Part 1, 2002; BIS: IS 456, 2000; BIS: IS
875 Part 2, 1983; BS EN 1992-1-1, 2008). We can analyze and design reinforced concrete
buildings, steel structures, water tanks, bridges etc. We can also perform static analysis and
dynamic analysis from modal extraction to time history and response spectrum analysis.
From model generation, analysis and design to visualization and result verification,
STAAD Pro. is the professional’s choice for steel, concrete, timber, aluminium and cold-

MODELLING OF STRUCTURE:
Modelling of 3-D frame is shown in figures step by step. It includes:
1) Modelling of frame
2) Assigning supports
3) Assigning properties to the structure
4) Load and Definition
3.1 MODELLING
Input Generation
The GUI (or user) communicates with the STAAD analysis engine through the STD input
file. That input file is a text file consisting of a series of commands which are executed
sequentially. The commands contain either instructions or data pertaining to analysis
and/or design. The STAAD input file can be created through a text editor or the GUI
Modelling facility. In general, any text editor may be utilized to edit/create the STD input
file. The GUI Modelling facility creates the input file through an interactive menu-driven
graphics-oriented procedure. First of all we make grid using grid generator to make plan as
shown in Figure 3.1.
Figure 3.1 Grid
Page 7 of 47
And then with the help of add beam, we will join the beams as shown in Figure 3.2
Figure 3.2 Plan of a building using irregular grid
3.2 ASSIGNING SUPPORTS
Supports are assigned at the base of the columns of the frame. Generally, fixed supports
are assigned so that columns will be fixed in its position. A fixed support has restraints
against all directions of movement. In “General” there is option of support. Click on
support and then click on create to give support by clicking all nodes of the frame and
assign to selected nodes as shown in Figure 3.3.
Figure 3.3 Generation of structure with supports
Page 8 of 47
3.3 ASSIGNING PROPERTIES TO STRUCTURE
Size of columns and beams depends on the span and loading. Generally, depth of the beam
varies between span/10 to span/12. Similarly, width of the beam should be less than width
of the column to avoid overhang in beam. Width to depth ratio of beam and columns are
given in (BIS: IS 13920, 2016). The depth of the beam should be sufficient to counteract
the bending moment occurs due to loading. If section get fail the properties can be
changed. The section properties are shown in Figure 3.4.
Beam Size = 450mm x 350mm
Column Size = 550mm x 500mm

CHAPTER 4
LOAD CALCULATIONS ON STRUCTURE :
Various types of loading in STAAD PRO is explained below :
SEISMIC LOADING
DEAD LOAD
LIVE LOAD
4.1. SEISMIC LOADING:
To apply the seismic loading on the structure, there are two steps. First you have to define
the seismic load and then you have to assign the load to the structure. For definition,
different parameters are required viz. Zone factor, Importance Factor, Type of structure,
type of soil, depth of footing, damping ratio, response reduction factor etc. These
parameters are shown in Figure 4.1 and Table 4.1 and are procured from code (BIS: IS
1893 Part 1, 2002).
Table 4.1 Values of Zone factor (BIS: IS 1893 Part 1, 2002)
Figure 4.1 Defining Seismic Loading
Seismic zone II III IV V
Seismic Intensity Low Moderate severe Very severe
Z 0.10 0.16 0.24 0.36
Page 10 of 47
After definition of seismic loading, next task is to assign the seismic load on the structure
as shown in Figure 4.2 and 4.3 in x-direction and z-direction respectively. For that firstly,
we have to apply dead load and live load. After application of dead load and live we have
to copy them in STAAD editor in the form of member weight and floor weight under
seismic load definition (see chapter Editor File).
Figure 4.2 Seismic Forces in X - Direction
Figure 4.3 Seismic Forces in Z – Direction
Page 11 of 47
4.2 DEAD LOAD:
Generally following types of dead laods can be applied on structure
Self-Weight
Wall Load
Load on slab
4.2.1 SELF WEIGHT
Self-weight refers to the self-weight of any entity, such as a member (beams, slabs,
columns etc.) as shown in Figure 4.4 and Figure 4.5. When the self-weight command is
used as a Load Item, it is an instruction to STAAD. Pro to automatically consider the self-
weight of the listed members properties.
Figure 4.4 Assigning Self-weight
Page 12 of 47
Figure 4.5 Self-weight on Structure
4.2.2 WALL LOAD
To determine the load of the wall, thickness of wall, height of wall and density of wall
should be known. The density of the wall can be obtained from (BIS: IS 875 Part 1, 1987).
Wall load in KN/m = Thickness x Height x Density. Analytical calculations are shown in
Table 4.2. This load will be applied in form of member load on the beams on which walls
are resting as shown in Figure 4.6 and Figure 4.7.
Table 4.2 Wall Load
MAIN WALL OF GROUND FLOOR (.228 x 3.95 x 20) 18.012 KN/m
PARTITION WALL OF GROUND FLOOR = (.114 x
3.95 x 20)
9.06 KN/m
MAIN WALL OF FLOORS (EXCEPT GROUND
FLOOR) (.228 x 3.65 x 20)
16.644 KN/m
PARTITION WALL OF FLOORS (EXCEPT GROUND
FLOOR) (.114 x 3.65 x 20)
8.322 KN/m

Page 14 of 47
4.2.3 LOAD ON SLAB
The dead load of the slab will only be calculated on the basis of analytical calculations as
shown in Table 4.3 and Table 4.4. To determine the self-weight of the slab, the density of
the reinforced concrete has been taken as 25 KN/m3 (BIS: IS 875 Part 1, 1987). The dead
load of the slab mainly depends on the thickness of the slab. To determine its thickness,
slabs should be designed as per design code (BIS: IS 456, 2000) to meet serviceability and
strength criteria. It means that slabs should be firstly designed analytically then after their
load will applied in STAAD. The floor load was not applied at plinth level because at
plinth level, the floor load will transfer to the soil and will not transfer to the footings.
From Yield line theory, it has been observed that two-way reinforced slab follows
trapezoidal distribution of area loading as shown in Figure 4.8.

4.3 LIVE LOAD:
Live load was applied to structure as per Indian standard code (BIS: IS 875 Part 2, 1983)
in KN/m2 in the form uniform distributed load which also follows trapezoidal distribution.
Table 4.5 present the different values of live load depending on type of accommodation.
Live load was applied in the form of floor load which also follows trapezoidal distribution
as shown in Figure 4.9.

4.4 LOAD COMBINATIONS:
Seismic design code (BIS: IS 1893 Part 1, 2002) presented the different load combinations
incorporating earthquake forces, dead load and live load. The combination which gives
maximum bending moment, shear force will be used to determine the area of the steel in
the beams and columns. However, while designing the footings, live load will be reduced
by 30 percent.
In limit state design of RCC and Prestressed concrete structures the following load
combinations shall be used:
1) 1.5 (D L + I L)
2) 1.2(D L + I L +- E L)
3) 1.5 (D L +- E L)
4) 0.9 D L +- 1.5 E L
Positive and negative sign indicates the seismic force (EQ) acting in X and Z direction.

ANALYSIS AND POST PROCESSING
ANALYSE THE STRUCTURE
The analysis was performed using the commands under the analyze menu in the modelling
mode. Select the Run Analysis option to perform Analysis/Design.
The Analysis status dialog box shown below appears. This dialog box displays the status
of the analysis process. If an error occurs during the analysis, the above dialog box
displays the error message. In this dialog box, we are also presented with three options as
shown in Figure 6.1..

Go to post processing mode
Stay in modelling mode
After clicking “Go to post processing mode” a new dialog box will appear as shown in
Figure 6.2 to select the load cases. After that the post processing mode has been opened as
shown in Figure 6.3 in which we can determine maximum and minimum bending
moments, maximum and minimum shear force, reactions at footings, stresses in plates etc.

parameters were specified as shown in Figure 7.1.

7.1 BEAM DESIGN
Beams are designed for flexure, shear and torsion. Generally, we do not use STAAD. Pro
to design the beams however, to analyze the structure we give command “Design Beam”
as shown in Figure 7.2. The purpose of STAAD. Pro is to analyze the beams so that we
can procure bending moment and shear force from it. The obtained bending moments and
Page 32 of 47
shear force have been used to design the beams analytically with the help of excel sheets.
The ductile detailing code (BIS: IS 13920, 2016) recommended the width of the member
shall not be less than 200mm. Also, the member shall preferably have a width-to depth
ratio of more than 0.3.
The design of beams is dependent upon the following factors:
1. Magnitude and type of loading
2. Duration of loading
3. Clear span
4. Material of the beam
5. Shape of the beam cross-section
Figure 7.2 Design specification in STAAD.pro
7.2 DESIGN OF COLUMNS
Analytical calculations of columns are very cumbersome to do in daily design practice
even with the help of excel sheets. Here the FEA plays an important role. STAAD contains
a broad set of facilities for designing structural members as individual components of an
Page 33 of 47
analyzed structure. The governing factors are length of column, loading conditions,
boundary constraints, grade of steel, grade of concrete etc. For modelling M30 grade of
concrete and Fe500 grade of steel has been used. The preliminary dimensions of the
columns have been chosen as per (BIS: IS 13920, 2016). Figure 7.3 show the
reinforcement details of Column 60 as highlighted in Figure 7.3.

Assume thickness of waist slab = 200mm
Loading on waist slab
Step section = (1/2)*(Tread)*(Riser)=(1/2)*(0.300)*(0.152) = 0.0228 m2
Inclined slab = 0.3336 * 0.20 = 0.067 m2
Finishes = (0.30+0.152)*(0.030) = 0.0135 m2
Total area = 0.103 m2
Page 35 of 47
DL per m = 0.103 x 30 = 2.58 KN/m
DL/m2 plan = 8.60 KN/m2
Live Load on stair case is = 4.0 kN/m 2
Total Load = 12.6 kN/m 2
Take width of slab 1.06m
Load per m = 12.6 x 1.06 = 13.356 kN/m
Loading on Landing
Self-weight of slab = 0.2 x 30 = 6 kN/m 2
Finish = 0.03 x 30 = 0.9 kN/m 2
Live load = 4.0 kN/m 2
Total factored load = 16.35 x 1.06 = 17.331 kN/m
In distance 150 mm from wall and 75 mm in support only DL should be considered as
shown in Figure 8.2.

Let LO= 0 mm
LD ≤ 1.3*M1/V +LO
Or , ≤ 43mm
Since bar dia provided is 12mm < 43 mm O.K
Temperature steel = 0.12 % of bd = 285 mm2 , provide 1 - 10 dia @ 300 c/c
Design of Landing
Self-weight of slab = 0.2 x 30 = 6 kN/ m 2
Finish = .03 x 30 = 0.9 kN/ m 2
Live load = 4 kN/ m 2
Total factored load = 16.35 x 1.06 = 17.331 kN/ m
Effective span = 1.06+1.06+0.44+0.150 = 2.71m
Total load = 17.331x2.71 = 46.9 kN (Take width 1.06m)
Reaction from one flight = 39.84 kN
Reaction from both flights = 79.68 kN
Max. Bending moment = WuL/8 = (79.68+46.96)*2.71/8 = 42.9KNm
Max. Shear force = 126.64/2 = 63.32KN
Effective depth = 200mm
Area of steel is given by :
BM = 0.87fy*Ast*(d- (fy*Ast/fck*b))
Ast = 512.82mm2 , so provide 10-10mm dia bars in 1060mm wide landing giving area of
785mm2 > 512.82mm2
Provide 0.12% temperature reinforcement in landing slab

CHAPTER 9
DESIGN OF FOUNDATIONS USING STAAD PRO.
With the help of STAAD Pro. We can do efficient foundation design and documentation
using plant-specific design tools, multiple design codes with U.S. and metric bar sizes,
design optimization, and automatic drawing generation. STAAD Foundation Advanced
provides you with a streamlined workflow through its integration with STAAD. Pro or as a
stand-alone application. You can design virtually any type of foundation, from basic to the
most complex.
Easily model complex or simple footings, such as plant foundations supporting vertical
vessels, horizontal vessels, tanks and other footings
Quickly model common foundations such as isolated, combined, strip, pile caps, and many
more
Simplify challenging scenarios such as vibrating machine foundation, lateral analysis of
piers, or mat design using FEA
There are different parameters are to be used to design the foundation.

Design
To design the footings firstly, we have to determine the column reactions as shown in
Figure 9.1. After that these reactions were transferred to STAAD Foundation Advanced to
determine the area of the footing and to determine the area of the steel required. In case if
two isolated footings are overlapping then provide combined footing.

CONCLUSION
During this project, we analyze and design various members of the building subjected to
different combinations of loads. Relevant recommendations and guidelines from various
Indian standard codes (BIS: IS 13920, 2016; BIS: IS 1893 Part 1, 2002; BIS: IS 456, 2000;
BIS: IS 875 Part 1, 1987; BIS: IS 875 Part 2, 1983) were also taken care of. STAAD PRO
has the capability to calculate the reinforcement needed for any concrete section. Beams,
slabs and staircase were designed manually however, columns were designed using
STAAD. Pro.

This paper analyzes and designs a 10-storied hospital building considering composite structure and RCC structure from the complete project point of view. ETABS and SAFE are used to analyze and design both structures. After completing the analysis and design, composite and RCC structures' cost, construction time, and other goals are assessed. Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC 2020) has been used to analyze and design the structures. Deflection, drift, bending moment, shear force, axial force, reinforcement ratio, D/C ratio, and P-M ratio were determined and compared. The story displacement of the composite structure is found 50% less than the RCC structure. The composite structure is found (20–22) % stiffer in the transverse direction than the RCC structure. P-M ratios and D/C ratios are found to be less than 1 for both structures. The total estimated cost and construction period of the composite structure are approximately 33.33% and 37.5% less than the RCC structure. This paper will assist researchers and engineers in making decisions, analyzing, and constructing RCC and composite structures considering all attributes, pricing principles, and inexpensive design.

RC slabs are the most widely constructed structural element in RC construction across the world. In design codes, moment coefficients for various end conditions of slabs are given but these are limited up to the slabs supported on their four sides; however, in routine purposes sometimes, designers encounter the problem having three sides supported slabs, for which moment coefficients are not as such given. To analyse such slabs, analytical modelling of 3-sided supported RC rectangular slabs carrying uniform area loading is carried out with different support conditions (Three edge discontinuous slab, three edge continuous slab, parallel supported edge continuous slab, parallel supported edge discontinuous slab and two adjacent edge discontinuous slab with one edge free). The results obtained from this analytical model were validated with available formulation. Also, the proposed models were validated with ATENA 3D V5.1. ATENA is used for FE modelling of RC structures. The modelling in ATENA is done for different aspect ratios (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, and 2.0) and it is observed that actual capacity of slabs was greater than the design load considered for all cases. The results obtained from the analytical model were represented in the form of design aids to help find the moment field which are easy to use and useful for designing such slabs rather using complex equations.

The analysis and design of reinforced concrete slabs supported on 3-sides in masonry or reinforced concrete construction involve analytical formulations. In published analytical formulations, orthotropic coefficients and continuity factors are unknown parameters. To obtain moment carrying capacity of the slabs using available formulations, these factors must be required. In this research work, these orthotropic coefficients and continuity factors are presented for transverse loaded RC rectangular slabs supported on three sides under uniform area loading at top face of the slab. These coefficients were obtained using FEA (Finite element Analysis) based Structural Analysis Program (SAP) software. It is also validated with FEA (Finite element Analysis) based SCIA Engineer software and published formulations. It have been observed that obtained results are well comparable with published literature and FEM based software. Results presented in this research paper are conducive to predict the moment-field of the reinforced concrete rectangular slabs supported on three sides having one edge is unsupported. These coefficients will be very helpful for structural designers dealing with reinforced concrete slabs supported on three sides.

The design of reinforced concrete slabs supported on two adjacent edges involves complex formulations. In this paper, a simplistic approach is presented for designing orthotropic slabs supported on two adjacent edges. Slab supported on two adjacent edges (existing slab) is transformed into a slab supported on three edges (equivalent slab) by taking a mirror image of the yield line pattern of two adjacent edges supported RC slabs about its unsupported edges to get the exact collapse mechanism for the slabs supported on three edges. The equivalent aspect ratio can be used in the equations already developed for the slabs supported on three sides. Ultimate moment carrying capacity of the slab carrying uniform load can be evaluated by using the available analytical formulations of the slab supported on three edges. So, the present approach gives a simplified method to analyse and design the orthotropic RC rectangular slab supported on two adjacent edges using the equations available for slab supported on three adjacent edges. Hence, the simplistic approach will be very helpful for structural designers dealing with analysis and design of slabs supported on two adjacent edges.

The partial replacement of cement by mineral admixtures in concrete has been increasing interest in construction industry. The use of Fly ash in concrete reduces the compressive strength of concrete at early ages. To compensate such loss various nanomaterial are used which not only use to compensate the strength at early ages however, also improves the durability properties of the concrete. Nano materials are like Titanium dioxide that have photocatalytic properties which protects the environment from numerous harmful gases like NO2, SO2 and also controls and enhance the various other properties of materials, including hydration, performance and degradation process. This research paper concern with the use of Nano-titanium dioxide and fly ash in concrete to improve the compressive strength of concrete. This paper represents the effect on compressive strength of concrete by partially replacing a cement with fly ash (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%) and nano titanium dioxide (0%. 1%, 1.5%, 2%).

The storage reservoirs and overhead tanks are used to store water, liquid petroleum products and other similar liquids. In this research work, the five different cases of elevated shaft type intze water tank were studied having diameter (6m, 7m, 8m, 9m and 10m) with similar capacity. The diameter and height of the water tank changes to maintain same capacity in different cases. The seismic analysis of water tank was performed as per IS: 1893:2014 (Part II) in which the impulsive and convective pressure were also considered. The analysis of tanks were also done using SAP v20 as per IS: 1893-2002. Comparison between analytical results and SAP results was also carried out. With considering the data of analysis, the economical section of water tank was found. From the results it is concluded that the 8m diameter of water tank is economical in all aspects.

A new, non-incremental advance in the lower bound finite element (FE) method for non-isotropic slab analysis is presented as a development of earlier work by the authors that was applicable only to isotropic slabs. The method provides a faster and simpler alternative to the full non-linear FE method in the non-linear analysis of slabs. Reinforced concrete was modelled as elastic perfectly plastic material, with rotation-free (RF) plate elements used to model slabs. They were modified to allow plastic yield lines to pass through elements satisfying non-isotropic yield conditions. Satisfying yield conditions and finding yield line directions differ significantly in their sophistication from their isotropic counterparts, as slab moment capacity is direction-dependent and yield line direction does not coincide with principal moment direction. Yield line effects were projected to element sides then used in curvature calculations. Analysis was performed incrementally, with the slab considered to behave linearly within each load increment. As a result, no iterations were required to reduce the unbalanced forces, as the behaviour within each load increment was in equilibrium. Accuracy was assessed against benchmark examples, and generally was within 2.5% of yield line collapse loads.

Summary A theory is developed for the load carried at large deflexions by the tensile membrane action of uniformly loaded rectangular slabs with edges restrained against all translation. It is assumed that the reinforcement acts as a plastic membrane. On comparison with test results the theory is shown to be conservative. The load carried by tensile membrane action is found to be considerable and for heavily reinforced slabs it can exceed the ultimate flexural strength.

Nonlinear finite element analyses of reinforced concrete slab-column connections under static and pseudo-dynamic loadings were conducted to investigate their failures modes in terms of ultimate load and cracking patterns. The 3D finite element analyses (FEA) were performed with the appropriate modeling of element size and mesh, and the constitutive modeling of concrete. The material parameters of the damaged plasticity model in ABAQUS were calibrated based on the test results of an interior slab-column connection. The predictive capability of the calibrated model was demonstrated by simulating different slab-column connections without shear reinforcement. Interior slab-column specimens under static loading, interior specimens under static and reversed cyclic loadings, and edge specimens under static and horizontal loadings were examined. The comparison between experimental and numerical results indicates that the calibrated model properly predicts the punching shear response of the slabs.
