RCC Framed Structure (Assignment 1) .

The document provides an overview of RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) framed structures, detailing their components such as foundations, columns, beams, slabs, staircases, lintels, and chhajjas. It emphasizes the importance of moment connections in concrete frames and the need for these structures to resist various loads including dead, live, wind, dynamic, and earthquake loads. Additionally, it outlines the types and functions of each structural element within an RCC framed building.

RCC FRAMED STRUCTURE
Introduction
• Concrete frame structures are the most common type of modern building.
• It usually consists of a frame or a skeleton of concrete.
• Horizontal members are beams and vertical ones are the columns.
• Concrete Buildings structures also contain slabs which are used as base, as well as
roof / ceiling.
• Among these, the column is the most important as it carries the primary load of the
building.
• Reinforced concrete frame structure is actually a connected frame of members which
are firmly connected to each other.
• These connections are called moment connections.
• There are also other types of connections which include the hinged connections that
are mostly used in steel structures, but the concrete frame structures have moment
connections in almost all of the cases.
• The concrete framed structure should resist various loads that act on the
building during its life.
• These loads include dead loads, live loads( imposed loads), wind loads,
dynamic loads, and earthquake loads.

TYPICAL ELEMENTS OF A RCC FRAMED STRUCTURE

MAJOR PARTS: MINOR PARTS:


1. FOUNDATION 1. LINTEL BEAMS
2. COLUMNS 2. CHHAJJA
3. BEAM
4. SLAB
5. STAIRCASE
FOOTING
• Load is transferred to the soil
through the isolated column footing.
• Reinforecement of column is tied to
reinforecement of footing.

• Types of isolated footings


1. Rectangular footing
2. Trapezoidal footing
3. Stepped footing
• Typical detailing of plain rectangular footing
BEAMS
• Horizontal, sloping or curved, Rcc
member used for support the slab
and walls of the building.

• Types of Beam
1. Simply supported Beam
2. Cantiliver Beam
3. Continous Beam
4. Flanged Beam
• Function of beam is to transfer the load from slab to the column.
• It is reinforced with main bars (main or bent- up).
• Consists of anchor bar at top and stirrups.
• A uniform cover of 25 mm is provided on sides, top and bottom of beams.
COLUMNS
• It is a vertical member in a framed
structure which is provided with
footing.
• Transfer load from beam to footing
and columns.
• It consists of main bars and
transverse rings, called lateral ties
( in beams, we called them stirrups).
• Minimum cover of 25 mm is provided
to the reinforcement.
• Basically, columns are beams but
vertical.
SLABS

• RCC member used flat or


sloping as roofs to cover the
building.

• Types of slab
1. Simply supported (one way and
two way)
2. Continous slab
3. Cantiliver slab
STAIRCASE

• Staircases provide vertical


access to connected
floors in a multi-story
building, and are a
functional part of it.
Stairwells are often used
to place several stairs one
above the other to save
vertical space.
• Landing and support of staircase
LINTELS AND CHHAJJAS
• RCC lintels are fire
proof, durable, strong,
economical, and easy to
construct.
• The plain concrete
lintels can be used upto
span of 800 mm but
RCC lintels is necessary
in some form as plain
concrete lintels is weak
in tension.
• The amount of
reinforcement depens
on span of lintel, width
of opening and the total
load to be supported by
the lintel.
