Structural Design of a Building: A Comprehensive Overview

Abstract

Abstract: When determining a building's structural design, designers must comprehend the subsequent processes. Building a residential, commercial, or industrial structure that can withstand all applied loads without failing over the course of its lifetime is the primary goal of structural analysis and design. A simplified, step-by-step procedure is used by structural engineers to design a structure that is structurally sound. The structural analysis and design process is facilitated by BIM tools such as Tekla and Autodesk Revit. An architectural piece needs to be both occupant-safe and structurally sound. Typhoon and earthquake resistance should be built in. The maximum shear and moment forces that occur in floor beams, columns, or stresses in steel trusses should be known by architects with sufficient expertise. As a result, the building's components, lifetime, Quality, strength, and other factors are affected by the structural design evaluation's missing sequence. You can follow the instructions in this document to design a building step-by-step: conceptual design, load analysis, structural analysis, system design, and other ideas in this document.
