G+8 RCC Building Analysis and Design Using ETABS

A structure's planning and design must be artistic in order to accomplish economy, serviceability, durability, and safety. In addition to creativity and critical thinking, a solid understanding of structural engineering science is necessary for the entire structural planning and designing process. This includes familiarity with applicable design codes and building bylaws, as well as practical knowledge supported by real-world experience. An architect typically considers the functional needs and aesthetics, while a structural engineer is more concerned with the structure's economy, durability, serviceability, and safety. For this reason, a location is chosen on which to erect an eight-story (G+8) structure. There are four apartments on each story, each with a bedroom, bathroom, living, dining, kitchen, and storage space—all the amenities needed for a residential home. The study and design of the apartment building are the focus of the current project. Just the live load and dead load are taken into account for analysis and design purposes. Since wind load is not considerable for an eight-story building, its effect is not taken into account. Values for dead loads are derived from IS-875 (Part 1), and values for live loads are derived from IS-875 (Part 2). Here, an elevation and plan are created using AutoCAD. It has to do with how the elevation and plan look from the outside.
