Structural Design
Project description
It is a degree level coursework and there is no specific amount of word limit. Only the structure design part 3 and 4 have to be done. The attached file H22A12 2014-15 Design Project Rev 1 has the details of the work and just ignore Part 1 and Part 2. The work should also follow the instruction below. Also attached with some examples and guild line of the work.
For your individual detailed design coursework – the design of an restrained beam, unrestrained beam and column – please can you use the base your designs, i.e. spans etc. on the worked examples given for each of these elements, see lectures 19, 22 and 24 respectively on moodle, but increase the actions on the floors as follows:
>
> – self weight of floor slab 4.0 kN/m^2
> – weight of ceiling, floor finishes, services 0.5 kN/m^2
>
> – imposed floor load 3.0 kN/m^2
> – weight of partitions 1.2 kN/m^2
>
> You can then design a connection between one of the beams you design to the the column you design using the relevant reactions from the chosen beam, to complete the individual detailed design submission.
>
> For the communication of design coursework, please provide an A3 CAD drawing showing the building floor layout given in the beam and column worked example, updated with your design information, in the style of of the exemplar drawing show on moodle; your drawing is to include your connection design. You are not required to provide a roof layout or elevations on this drawing.
