Abstract

Building design and construction of multi-story buildings involves a network of highly complex and meticulous processes. It is imperative to carry out these processes with great care and concern for achieving desired levels of stability conditions. Using the ultimate load values, the designing of essential structural members have been outlined in the paper. The structural elements used as a basis for carrying out the design calculations include beams, slabs and staircase. The paper presents the various steps of calculations required for computing the correct values. The necessary parameters and design criteria have been shown that will facilitate the design as well as evaluation of the structures. A base plan has been used as an illustrative example to conduct the calculations on.
