This document presents the structural analysis of a double-storey bungalow conducted by a group of students. It includes architectural plans, structural plans, analysis of the slab and tributary area, assumptions of dead and live loads, and the distribution of beams and columns among group members. Calculations will be performed to analyze individual beam and column components based on the load assumptions and distributions.

1.0 Brief Description of Building
In this project, we are required to design a double-storey bungalow together, carry out structural
framing and prepare structural drawings for the bungalow. The project is an integrated component
where it involves structural theory, force calculation and basic structural proposal. This project is
designed to allow the demonstration of knowledge and understanding of building structure.
The bungalow is a 324m2
building which includes spaces such as:
(A) 1 master bedroom with attached study room, wardrobe, and bathroom
(B) 1 bedroom with attached bathroom
(C) 1 bedroom
(D) 1 guest room with attached bathroom
(E) 1 maid room
(F) 2 bathrooms
(G) 2 living room (ground floor and first floor)
(H) 1 family theatre
(I) 1 double volume dining room
(J) 1 dry and wet kitchen
(K) 1 laundry area
(L) 1 storeroom
(M) 1 outdoor covered car porch

6.0 Assumption of Dead Load and Live Load
6.1 Assumptions on Dead Loads Acting on Structure
(A) Slab self-weight
= 0.15 x 24kN/m3
= 3.6kN/m2
(B) Brick wall self-weight
= Wall thickness x Wall height x Density
= 0.1m x 3.0m x 19kN/m3
= 5.7kN/m
(C) Primary Beam self-weight
= Beam size x Concrete density
= 0.2m x 0.3m x 24kN/m3
= 1.44kN/m
(D) Secondary Beam self-weight
= Beam size x Concrete density
= 0.1m x 0.2m x 24kN/m3
= 0.48kN/m
(E) Column self-weight
= Column size x Concrete density
= 0.3m x 0.3m x 3.0m x 24kN/m3
= 6.48kN
*All dead loads (slabs, walls, beams, columns) are assumed to have a standard size.
* Dead load factor: 1.4
6.2 Assumptions on Live Loads Acting on Structure
(A) Bedroom :1.5kN/m2
(B) Living Room :4.0kN/m2
(C) Dining Room :2.0kN/m2

(H) Car Porch :2.0kN/m2
(I) Stairs :1.5kN/m2
(J) Family Area :2.0kN/m2
(K) Store Room :2.5kN/m2
*All assumptions on live loads are referred to 4th
schedule of UBBL for live loads per room
functions.
* Live load factor: 1.6

Slab System
If Ly/Lx > 2, one-way slab system
If Ly/Lx ≤ 2, two-way slab system
Beam Calculation
Beam self-weight = beam size x density of reinforced concrete
Slab dead load = thickness x density of reinforced concrete x Lx/2 (Trapezoid)
= thickness x density of reinforced concrete x Lx/2 x 2/3 (Triangular)
Slab live load = live load (UBBL) x Lx/2 (Trapezoid)
= live load (UBBL) x Lx/2 x 2/3 (Triangular)
Brick wall dead load = wall height x thickness x density of bricks
Column Calculation
Beam self-weight = beam size x density of reinforced concrete x length
Slab dead load = thickness x density of reinforced concrete x tributary area
Slab live load = live load (UBBL) x tributary area
Brick wall self-weight = thickness x wall height x density of bricks x length
Column self-weight = width x length x height x density of reinforced concrete
