Introduction
The basic aim of the structural design is to build a structure, which is safe, fulfilling the intended
purpose during its estimated life span, economical in terms of initial and maintenance cost, durable
and also maintaining a good aesthetic appearance. A building is considered to be structurally sound,
if the individual elements and the building as a whole satisfy the criteria for strength, stability and
serviceability and in seismic areas additional criteria for ductility and energy absorption capabilities.
The overall building must be strong enough to transfer all loads through the structure to the ground
without collapsing or losing structural integrity by rupture of the material at the critical sections, by
transformation of the whole or parts into mechanisms or by instability. This strength criterion is valid
for all loads that will normally be applied to the building during its lifetime. Accidents, overloading
and disasters are not directly related to design. However, concern is needed for the structure to have
structural integrity. A building needs to be designed for all loads acting on it. Detailed structural
designs are carried out and working drawings are to be prepared. Safety is the prime concern of the
structural design. Serviceability and economy are other basic requirements that are to be considered
during structural design. The building should be designed not only for vertical loads, but also for
horizontal loads such as wind and earthquake loads. A building and its structural elements must be
strong enough to transfer all the loads acting on it safely to the ground. It should be able to withstand
all loads acting on it.
Nepal lies in seismically vulnerable zone. It is located in the boundary of the two colliding tectonic
plates- the Indian plate (Indo-Australian Plate) and the Tibetan plate (Eurasian Plate) which is known
as “Subduction Zone”. Records of earthquakes are available in Nepal since 1955 A.D. Those records
reveal that Nepal was hit by 18 major earthquakes since then, resulting in huge loss of life and property.
Out of these earthquakes, the 1833 and 1934 earthquakes were the most destructive ones.
Designing building against earthquake forces does not mean that we are making the building proof
against it. Although we can design such robust structure, it would be too expensive to build, it would
be far cheaper to rebuild the building again instead of making it completely earthquake proof. The
structures are generally designed for much lower seismic forces than what it may actually experience
during its life time. Since the structure is expected to undergo damage in the event of a severe shaking,
reliance is placed on the inelastic response of the structure beyond yield.
Therefore, structures have to be ductile and capable of dissipating energy through inelastic actions.
Ductility can be achieved by avoiding brittle modes of failures. Brittle modes of failures include, shear
and bond failure. Thus, structures should be designed on Weak Beam-Strong column philosophy.
The structural design alone is not enough to ensure the safety of the building, equally important, is its
construction. The role of the contractor is of paramount importance as he is the one to execute the
construction work at the site. He is required to execute the work according to the drawings supplied
by the consultant to him and detailing has to be carefully followed. A large percentage of failure of
the building is attributed to poor quality of construction. Past experiences from damages have shown
that quality of material and workmanship plays an important role in good seismic behavior of the
buildings. Hence, quality assurance in construction is expected to gain good seismic performance.

a. Working Stress Method based on the Working loads in conjunction with permissible stresses in the
materials.
b. Limit State Method based on safety and serviceability requirements associated with the design
loads and design strengths of the materials. These design loads and design strengths are obtained
by applying partial safety factors for characteristic loads and strengths of the materials concrete
and steel.
We have followed the limit state method which is incorporated in IS: 456-2000. It is consistent with
the new philosophy of design termed limit state approach which was incorporated in the Russian Code
– 1954, the British code BS 8110 – 1985 and the American Code ACI 318 – 1989.
b. The limit state of serviceability which includes excessive deflection and excessive local damage.
Analysis
The analysis has been carried out using a standard software package Etabs2016 based on finite element
method. The software is capable of carrying out a Three-dimensional analysis. It is windows-based
software. It has a user-friendly graphical input and output interface. It can account for the rigid zones
at the beam - column junction. It has a capability to create a special joint at any grid intersection. The
program has a facility to create shell elements also. Shell elements can be used for the analysis of
Slabs and Shear walls. A full 3D finite element model using frame and shell elements can also be
created using ETABS.
A Three-Dimensional Linear elastic analysis has been carried out. Structure is assumed to be fixed at
the Plinth level. The masonry wall load is distributed in the beams as uniformly distributed loads. The
beams are modeled as rectangular beams. A model based on Rigid Diaphragm Concept has been
considered. This is done by creating a special joint at the center of mass of each floor level and
constraining all the joints at this level by a diaphragm constraint.

Design
The design of reinforced concrete structural members includes selection of material properties
(grade of steel and concrete), shape and size of cross section, factor of safety and amount of
steel required. The design of reinforced concrete members is carried out using limit state
method as per IS 456: 2000. The limit state method is the modern and latest design
methodology. This method evolved around 1970’s. Limit state method is based on the concept
of multiple safety factors and attempts to provide adequate safety at the ultimate loads and
adequate serviceability at service loads.
For the design of the members IS 456:2000 and design aid SP 16 has been used. Footings have
been checked for vertical loads and moments developed at the base due to dead load and live
load only. Square footings have been adopted from seismic point of view that reversal stress
may occur. And footing beams are provided for column at foundation for more rigidity of
building and also need for the column located at boundary. Longitudinal reinforcement in
beams and columns has been calculated based on critical load combination among the thirteen
load combinations. Spacing of the shear reinforcement has been calculated as per the ductility
criteria as defined in IS 13920 -1993. Some sample designs are shown later on in this report.
Design Parameters
Followings factors are considered for earthquake resistant design of the building.

Design of foundation
The purpose of the foundation is to effectively support the superstructure by transmitting the
applied load effects to the soil below, without exceeding the safe bearing capacity of the
superstructure by ensuring settlement of the structure is within tolerable limits, and as nearly
uniform as possible. The choice of the type of the foundation depends not only on the type of
the superstructure and the magnitude and types of reactions induced at the base of the
superstructure, but also on the nature of the soil strata on top of which the substructure is to be
founded. The foundation used for this building is isolated foundation. Bearing Capacity of Soil
is 125KN/m2.

Conclusion
Ductility and strength required to resist major earthquake can be achieved by following the
recommendations made in the standard codes of practice for earthquake resistant design. After
the analysis of the building components, the building is found to be safe against the loads
considered above. All the sections are found to be stressed within the permissible limits due to
axial, shear, flexural and torsional forces produced due to above forces. The slab and
foundations were checked manually. Shear stirrups is sufficiently provided so that none of the
elements are Vulnerable to shear failure and failure mode will be flexural, which is more
ductile. Bearing capacity of the soil is assumed to be 125 KN/m2. It is strongly recommended
to check the bearing capacity before construction so as to ensure the assumed value is within
safe limits. The structural safety would further depend upon the effectiveness of construction
procedures as well as collapse and serviceability criteria followed during the construction
phases.
Design and construction of the structure are inter – related jobs. A building behaves in a manner
how it has been built rather than what the intensions is during designing. A large percentage of
structural failures are attributed due to poor quality of construction. Therefore, quality
assurance is needed in both design and construction. Durable M20 concrete has been used in
the foundation which is in contact with the soil. M20 grade of concrete is used during analysis
and design for Beams, slab and design for columns. Ductile detailing has been extensively
adopted while detailing.

Serviceability and economy are other basic requirements that are to be considered during

Nepal lies in seismically vulnerable zone. It is located in the boundary of the two colliding

resulting in huge loss of life and property. Out of these earthquakes, the 1833 and 1934

Designing building against earthquake forces does not mean that we are making the building
proof against it. Although we can design such robust structure, it would be too expensive to
build, it would be far cheaper to rebuild the building again instead of making it completely
earthquake proof. The structures are generally designed for much lower seismic forces than
what it may actually experience during its life time. Since the structure is expected to undergo
damage in the event of a severe shaking, reliance is placed on the inelastic response of the
structure beyond yield.
Therefore, structures have to be ductile and capable of dissipating energy through inelastic
actions. Ductility can be achieved by avoiding brittle modes of failures. Brittle modes of
failures include, shear and bond failure. Thus, structures should be designed on Weak Beam-
Strong column philosophy.
The structural design alone is not enough to ensure the safety of the building, equally important,
is its construction. The role of the contractor is of paramount importance as he is the one to
execute the construction work at the site. He is required to execute the work according to the
drawings supplied by the consultant to him and detailing has to be carefully followed. A large

a. Working Stress Method based on the Working loads in conjunction with permissible
stresses in the materials.
b. Limit State Method based on safety and serviceability requirements associated with the
design loads and design strengths of the materials. These design loads and design strengths
are obtained by applying partial safety factors for characteristic loads and strengths of the
materials concrete and steel.
We have followed the limit state method which is incorporated in IS: 456-2000. It is consistent
with the new philosophy of design termed limit state approach which was incorporated in the
Russian Code – 1954, the British code BS 8110 – 1985 and the American Code ACI 318 –
1989.
b. The limit state of serviceability which includes excessive deflection and excessive local
damage.
Analysis
The analysis has been carried out using a standard software package Etabs2016 based on finite
element method. The software is capable of carrying out a Three-dimensional analysis. It is
windows-based software. It has a user-friendly graphical input and output interface. It can
account for the rigid zones at the beam - column junction. It has a capability to create a special
joint at any grid intersection. The program has a facility to create shell elements also. Shell
elements can be used for the analysis of Slabs and Shear walls. A full 3D finite element model
using frame and shell elements can also be created using ETABS.
A Three-Dimensional Linear elastic analysis has been carried out. Structure is assumed to be
fixed at the Plinth level. The masonry wall load is distributed in the beams as uniformly
distributed loads. The beams are modeled as rectangular beams. A model based on Rigid
Diaphragm Concept has been considered. This is done by creating a special joint at the center
of mass of each floor level and constraining all the joints at this level by a diaphragm constraint.

Design
The design of reinforced concrete structural members includes selection of material properties
(grade of steel and concrete), shape and size of cross section, factor of safety and amount of
steel required. The design of reinforced concrete members is carried out using limit state
method as per IS 456: 2000. The limit state method is the modern and latest design
methodology. This method evolved around 1970’s. Limit state method is based on the concept
of multiple safety factors and attempts to provide adequate safety at the ultimate loads and
adequate serviceability at service loads.
For the design of the members IS 456:2000 and design aid SP 16 has been used. Footings have
been checked for vertical loads and moments developed at the base due to dead load and live
load only. Square footings have been adopted from seismic point of view that reversal stress
may occur. And footing beams are provided for column at foundation for more rigidity of
building and also need for the column located at boundary. Longitudinal reinforcement in
beams and columns has been calculated based on critical load combination among the thirteen
load combinations. Spacing of the shear reinforcement has been calculated as per the ductility
criteria as defined in IS 13920 -1993. Some sample designs are shown later on in this report.
Design Parameters
Followings factors are considered for earthquake resistant design of the building.

Design of foundation
The purpose of the foundation is to effectively support the superstructure by transmitting the
applied load effects to the soil below, without exceeding the safe bearing capacity of the
superstructure by ensuring settlement of the structure is within tolerable limits, and as nearly
uniform as possible. The choice of the type of the foundation depends not only on the type of
the superstructure and the magnitude and types of reactions induced at the base of the
superstructure, but also on the nature of the soil strata on top of which the substructure is to be
founded. The foundation used for this building is isolated foundation. Bearing Capacity of Soil
is 125KN/m2.

Conclusion
Ductility and strength required to resist major earthquake can be achieved by following the
recommendations made in the standard codes of practice for earthquake resistant design. After
the analysis of the building components, the building is found to be safe against the loads
considered above. All the sections are found to be stressed within the permissible limits due to
axial, shear, flexural and torsional forces produced due to above forces. The slab and
foundations were checked manually. Shear stirrups is sufficiently provided so that none of the
elements are Vulnerable to shear failure and failure mode will be flexural, which is more
ductile. Bearing capacity of the soil is assumed to be 125 KN/m2. It is strongly recommended
to check the bearing capacity before construction so as to ensure the assumed value is within
safe limits. The structural safety would further depend upon the effectiveness of construction
procedures as well as collapse and serviceability criteria followed during the construction
phases.
Design and construction of the structure are inter – related jobs. A building behaves in a manner
how it has been built rather than what the intensions is during designing. A large percentage of
structural failures are attributed due to poor quality of construction. Therefore, quality
assurance is needed in both design and construction. Durable M20 concrete has been used in
the foundation which is in contact with the soil. M20 grade of concrete is used during analysis
and design for Beams, slab and design for columns. Ductile detailing has been extensively
adopted while detailing.

Introduction
The basic aim of the structural design is to build a structure, which is safe, fulfilling the intended
purpose during its estimated life span, economical in terms of initial and maintenance cost, durable
and also maintaining a good aesthetic appearance. A building is considered to be structurally sound,
if the individual elements and the building as a whole satisfy the criteria for strength, stability and
serviceability and in seismic areas additional criteria for ductility and energy absorption capabilities.
The overall building must be strong enough to transfer all loads through the structure to the ground
without collapsing or losing structural integrity by rupture of the material at the critical sections, by
transformation of the whole or parts into mechanisms or by instability. This strength criterion is valid
for all loads that will normally be applied to the building during its lifetime. Accidents, overloading
and disasters are not directly related to design. However, concern is needed for the structure to have
structural integrity. A building needs to be designed for all loads acting on it. Detailed structural
designs are carried out and working drawings are to be prepared. Safety is the prime concern of the
structural design. Serviceability and economy are other basic requirements that are to be considered
during structural design. The building should be designed not only for vertical loads, but also for
horizontal loads such as wind and earthquake loads. A building and its structural elements must be
strong enough to transfer all the loads acting on it safely to the ground. It should be able to withstand
all loads acting on it.
Nepal lies in seismically vulnerable zone. It is located in the boundary of the two colliding tectonic
plates- the Indian plate (Indo-Australian Plate) and the Tibetan plate (Eurasian Plate) which is known
as “Subduction Zone”. Records of earthquakes are available in Nepal since 1955 A.D. Those records
reveal that Nepal was hit by 18 major earthquakes since then, resulting in huge loss of life and property.
Out of these earthquakes, the 1833 and 1934 earthquakes were the most destructive ones.
Designing building against earthquake forces does not mean that we are making the building proof
against it. Although we can design such robust structure, it would be too expensive to build, it would
be far cheaper to rebuild the building again instead of making it completely earthquake proof. The
structures are generally designed for much lower seismic forces than what it may actually experience
during its life time. Since the structure is expected to undergo damage in the event of a severe shaking,
reliance is placed on the inelastic response of the structure beyond yield.
Therefore, structures have to be ductile and capable of dissipating energy through inelastic actions.
Ductility can be achieved by avoiding brittle modes of failures. Brittle modes of failures include, shear
and bond failure. Thus, structures should be designed on Weak Beam-Strong column philosophy.
The structural design alone is not enough to ensure the safety of the building, equally important, is its
construction. The role of the contractor is of paramount importance as he is the one to execute the
construction work at the site. He is required to execute the work according to the drawings supplied
by the consultant to him and detailing has to be carefully followed. A large percentage of failure of
the building is attributed to poor quality of construction. Past experiences from damages have shown
that quality of material and workmanship plays an important role in good seismic behavior of the
buildings. Hence, quality assurance in construction is expected to gain good seismic performance.

a. Working Stress Method based on the Working loads in conjunction with permissible stresses in the
materials.
b. Limit State Method based on safety and serviceability requirements associated with the design
loads and design strengths of the materials. These design loads and design strengths are obtained
by applying partial safety factors for characteristic loads and strengths of the materials concrete
and steel.
We have followed the limit state method which is incorporated in IS: 456-2000. It is consistent with
the new philosophy of design termed limit state approach which was incorporated in the Russian Code
– 1954, the British code BS 8110 – 1985 and the American Code ACI 318 – 1989.
b. The limit state of serviceability which includes excessive deflection and excessive local damage.
Analysis
The analysis has been carried out using a standard software package Etabs2016 based on finite element
method. The software is capable of carrying out a Three-dimensional analysis. It is windows-based
software. It has a user-friendly graphical input and output interface. It can account for the rigid zones
at the beam - column junction. It has a capability to create a special joint at any grid intersection. The
program has a facility to create shell elements also. Shell elements can be used for the analysis of
Slabs and Shear walls. A full 3D finite element model using frame and shell elements can also be
created using ETABS.
A Three-Dimensional Linear elastic analysis has been carried out. Structure is assumed to be fixed at
the Plinth level. The masonry wall load is distributed in the beams as uniformly distributed loads. The
beams are modeled as rectangular beams. A model based on Rigid Diaphragm Concept has been
considered. This is done by creating a special joint at the center of mass of each floor level and
constraining all the joints at this level by a diaphragm constraint.

Design
The design of reinforced concrete structural members includes selection of material properties
(grade of steel and concrete), shape and size of cross section, factor of safety and amount of
steel required. The design of reinforced concrete members is carried out using limit state
method as per IS 456: 2000. The limit state method is the modern and latest design
methodology. This method evolved around 1970’s. Limit state method is based on the concept
of multiple safety factors and attempts to provide adequate safety at the ultimate loads and
adequate serviceability at service loads.
For the design of the members IS 456:2000 and design aid SP 16 has been used. Footings have
been checked for vertical loads and moments developed at the base due to dead load and live
load only. Square footings have been adopted from seismic point of view that reversal stress
may occur. And footing beams are provided for column at foundation for more rigidity of
building and also need for the column located at boundary. Longitudinal reinforcement in
beams and columns has been calculated based on critical load combination among the thirteen
load combinations. Spacing of the shear reinforcement has been calculated as per the ductility
criteria as defined in IS 13920 -1993. Some sample designs are shown later on in this report.
Design Parameters
Followings factors are considered for earthquake resistant design of the building.

Design of foundation
The purpose of the foundation is to effectively support the superstructure by transmitting the
applied load effects to the soil below, without exceeding the safe bearing capacity of the
superstructure by ensuring settlement of the structure is within tolerable limits, and as nearly
uniform as possible. The choice of the type of the foundation depends not only on the type of
the superstructure and the magnitude and types of reactions induced at the base of the
superstructure, but also on the nature of the soil strata on top of which the substructure is to be
founded. The foundation used for this building is isolated foundation. Bearing Capacity of Soil
is 125KN/m2.

Conclusion
Ductility and strength required to resist major earthquake can be achieved by following the
recommendations made in the standard codes of practice for earthquake resistant design. After
the analysis of the building components, the building is found to be safe against the loads
considered above. All the sections are found to be stressed within the permissible limits due to
axial, shear, flexural and torsional forces produced due to above forces. The slab and
foundations were checked manually. Shear stirrups is sufficiently provided so that none of the
elements are Vulnerable to shear failure and failure mode will be flexural, which is more
ductile. Bearing capacity of the soil is assumed to be 125 KN/m2. It is strongly recommended
to check the bearing capacity before construction so as to ensure the assumed value is within
safe limits. The structural safety would further depend upon the effectiveness of construction
procedures as well as collapse and serviceability criteria followed during the construction
phases.
Design and construction of the structure are inter – related jobs. A building behaves in a manner
how it has been built rather than what the intensions is during designing. A large percentage of
structural failures are attributed due to poor quality of construction. Therefore, quality
assurance is needed in both design and construction. Durable M20 concrete has been used in
the foundation which is in contact with the soil. M20 grade of concrete is used during analysis
and design for Beams, slab and design for columns. Ductile detailing has been extensively
adopted while detailing.
