BACKGROUND
This Building project is located at Madhyapur Thimi-14, bhaktapur. This project comprises
planning architectural design, structural design, electrical design and sanitary design
components. The basic aim of the structural design is to build a structure, which is safe, fulfilling
the intended purpose during its estimated life, economical in terms of initial and maintenance
cost, durable and also maintaining a good aesthetic appearance. The construction of any building
consists of three phases: a) Design b) Drawing with proper detailing and c) construction as per
drawing and details. The design of structure consists of two parts. i) Analysis and ii) Design. At
first the preliminary size of various member for specific structure are fixed and the analysis is
carried out. With the result obtained from analysis, necessary design is carried out. After the
completion of the design, drawings are prepared with all necessary details. The presentation of
the design calculation and drawing should be clear. After completion of the office works which
include design and drawing, the construction of the building is carried out. The effort with which
design has been carried out becomes worthwhile only if the design is translated to a
correspondingly high quality structure.
Nepal lies in seismically active region in the boundary of the two colliding tectonic plates the
India plates and the Tibetan plates. Records of earthquake are available in Nepal since 1255AD.
Those records reveal that Nepal has hit by 18 major earthquakes, the 1833 and 1934 earthquakes
were the most destructive ones. And recently, 2015 Gorkha Earthquake is felt by us. However, it
would not be economically feasible to design the building so as to ensure that they remain elastic
and damage free because the occurrence of maximum earthquakes low say one in 75 years . Thus
it is reliable to design the
ductile structure and not
to design damage free
structure but non
collapsible structure for
minimum destruction in
lives and properties. The
design should ensure the
structure
against
stability, strength and
serviceability
with
acceptable levels of
seismic safety.
Thus the seismic design
of the building is done
and the brief report has
been prepared. All the
design
data
are
considered in the detail
architectural
and
structural drawing.
