Design of Multi-Storeyed Library Building

Abstract

The purpose of project is to the design the library building using the Indian standard code IS: 456-2000 and IS: 1553-1989. The report includes a study of planning and design of Library Building. A requirement of library building in an engineering institution is taken as a subject. Planning and designing of building is done according to IS codes. We are designing a building using green building recommendations according to the IGBC (Indian Green Building Council). Structural design is done according to LSD (Limit State Method) and loads are taken from the IS codes. Structural and RCC design is done using STAAD.Pro. in addition sample manual calculation are also done in order to check the results obtained from STAAD. Pro. Software. The architectural design and other engineering drawings are made with the help of CHIEF ARCHITECT software and AutoCAD. Exterior design of the building is also done in Chief Architect and location of various components of the building is shown with the help of AutoCAD. We have calculated area by surveying the JUIT library and collected data from various institutions for number of books in the library. Furniture dimensions are taken from the IS:1553-1989. RCC design is done with limit state method confirming to IS codes: 456-2000. The design results are given by STAAD.Pro are compared with the results obtained manually. Ultimately the various dimensions of sections are obtained. After the RCC design, Green building concept has been applied.
