P2 Y P3 P2
X
P1 P2 P1
Span = Minimum (X or Y)
Span = 6000 mm
Eff Depth(P1 & P2) = 6000/26
= 230 mm
Cover(25) + R/F (10) + 230 = 265 mm
Lets take = 275 mm
Eff Depth(P3) = 6000/30 = 200 mm
Cover(25) + R/F (10) + 200 = 235 mm
Lets take = 250 mm

Span = Minimum (X or Y)
Span = 6000 mm
Eff Depth(B1) = 6000/18 = 333 mm
Cover(25) + R/F (20 + 8) + 333 = 386mm
Lets take = 450 mm
Initial Sizing
Beam Width
Reference : I Struct-E Manual EC2 Table 4.1 For 1.5 hr Fire rating = 200 mm
So lets take = 225 mm
Self Weight = 0.225 x 0.45 x 25
= 2.531 kN/m
Basic loading in slabs
Slab thickness = 275 mm
Self Weight of Slab = 6.875 kN / m2
Finishes = 0.5 kN / m2
Services = 0.5 kN / m2
Partitions = 1.0 kN / m2
Total Dead Load ( gk) = 8.875 kN / m2
Imposed Load ( qk ) = 4.0 kN / m2
Ultimate Design Load = 1.35 Gk + 1.5 Qk
= 1.35x8.875 + 1.5 x 4
= 18 kN/ m2
Initial Sizing
Beam Width
Beam Self Weight = 2.531 kN/m
Ultimate Design Load = 2.531 x 1.35 = 3.42 kN/m 6000
From Slab (UDL) = 18 x (6/2) = 54 kN/m
Total UDL = 54 + 3.42 = 57.5 kN/m
6000
Maximum Shear force on beam = W L /2 = 57.5 X 6 / 2 = 172 kN
fcu = 30 N/mm2
So Minimum Width of Beam = 1000 V / 2d
= 1000 x 172 / (2 x (450-8-20/2)
= 199 mm > 225
hence Selected width is Okey
Beam Size is 450 x 225 mm
Initial Sizing
Column
Load from slabs P1 P2
Slab thickness = 275 mm
Self Weight of Slab = 6.875 kN / m2
Finishes = 0.5 kN / m2 P4 P3
Services = 0.5 kN / m2
Partitions = 1.0 kN / m2
Total Dead Load ( gk) = 8.875 kN / m2
Imposed Load ( qk ) = 4.0 kN / m2
Ultimate Design Load = 1.35 Gk + 1.5 Qk
= 1.35x8.875 + 1.5 x 4
= 18 kN/ m2 Span = Minimum (X or Y)
Span = 6000 mm
Total loads from slabs in 1 floor = ¼ of P1 + ¼ of P2 + ¼ of P3 + ¼ of P4
= ¼ x 18 (62 + 62 + 62 + 62)
= 18 x 62 = 18 x 36 = 648 kN
So total building = 648 x 3 floors (Except Ground floor) = 1944 kN
Initial Sizing
Column b1
Load from Beams
Beam sizes = 450 x 225 mm
B4 B2
Self Weight of Beam = 2.531 kN / m
= 2.531- .275*.225*25 kN / m
Self weight without slab over beam = 0.984 kN / m
B3
Ultimate Design Load = 1.35 Gk
= 1.35x0.984
= 1.33 kN/ m Span = Minimum (X or Y)
Span = 6000 mm
Total loads from slabs in 1 floor = ½ of B1 + ½ of B2 + ½ of B3 + ½ of B4
= ½ x 6 x 1.33 x 4
= 15.96 kN
So total building = 15.96 x 4 floors (Include Ground floor) = 63.84 kN
Initial Sizing
Column b1
Self Weight of Column
Column sizes = 400 x 400 mm
B4 B2
Self Weight of Beam = 0.4 x 0.4 x 25 kN / m

Floor to Floor Height = 4 M

Deduct the beam height 4-.450 3.55 m
Total weight = 4 x 3.55 14.2 kN
Ultimate Design Load = 1.35 Gk
= 1.35x14.2
= 19.17 kN Span = Minimum (X or Y)
Span = 6000 mm
So load on GL column = 19.17 x 3 floors = 57.51 kN
Initial Sizing
Column b1
Total load on GL column

Load from Slabs = 1,944.00 kN
Load from Beams = 63.84 kN

Total 2,065.35 kN
To compensate for the effect of eccentricity = 2065.35 x 1.25
(I Struct-E Manual Cl 4.8.4) = 2581.69 kN
Initial Sizing

Design Load = 2581.69 kN

Ac = 95,618.15 mm2
