Design and Analysis of Multistorey (G+14) Residential Building Using Staad.Pro & Autocad

Abstract

In order to compete in the ever-growing competent market, it is very important for a structural engineer to save time. As a sequel to this an attempt is made to analyze and design a multistoried building by using a software package staad pro. For analyzing a multi storied building one has to consider all the possible loadings and see that the structure is safe against all possible loading conditions. There are several methods for analysis of different frames like kani’s method, cantilever method, portal method, and Matrix method. The present project deals with the design & analysis of a multi storied residential building of G+14 consisting of 2 apartments in each floor. The dead load &live loads are applied and the design for beams, columns, footing is obtained STAAD Pro with its new features surpassed its predecessors and compotators with its data sharing capabilities with other major software like AutoCAD. We conclude that staad pro is a very powerful tool which can save much time and is very accurate in Designs. Thus, it is concluded that staad pro package is suitable for the designof a multistoried building.
