Proposed Structure
1. Plan layout drawings to appropriate scale showing the general arrangement of existing columns at ground floor level
2. Plan layout drawings to appropriate scale showing the general arrangement of existing columns and beams at first floor level
3. Plan layout drawings to appropriate scale showing the general arrangement of existing columns and beams at roof level
4. Typical section(s) through the existing building showing approximate floor to floor height, column and beam dispositions.
5. A part elevation of the existing building to an appropriate scale
1. Prepare a design appraisal using well annotated sketches indicating THREE distinct and viable structural solutions for the proposed extensions. For each proposal, show clearly the functional framing, load transfer and stability aspects.
2. Prepare general arrangement plans, cross sections and elevations to show the dimensions, layout and disposition of the main structural elements of the extension.
3. Prepare clearly annotated critical and detailed sketches to illustrate beam to beam connection, beam to column connections, column to foundation connection, a column splice detail, a beam splice detail if applicable.
Out of the three proposed design the center design is considered to be the best design. It has the column of 15” and the beam size of 2”.It is the stable design with the considerable cost. The first design is a quite good with low cost, but stability is not assured. The third design has a good stability with very high cost. The second design is considered as the best design.
All the necessary materials for construction can be transported using the supporting structure made of woods. Heavy materials can be transported using the separate arrangement.
