CIVL3016 - Building Superstructure Design Considerations Assignment

Assignment Task

Project selection

Students are work individually to study a medium/large construction project with focus on the structural design considerations. You may select a project from the case study folders in vUWS, or if you are employed at a contractor on a project of suitable scope, you may report on the project that you are working on. If you are choosing your own project, it must be approved by the Subject Coordinator and within this scope:

• A low-rise steel-framed industrial/warehouse/light commercial building where the structural system is a steel portal frame, or
• Multi-storey building consisting of a conventional RC/prestressed concrete frame, structural steel frame, mass timber structure or a hybrid/composite structure, or
• Other structure as approved by Subject Coordinator.
• Typical domestic construction is not acceptable.

The report is required to cover the following sections:

1. Overview of the structure

2. Building materials

3. Design loads

4. Types of structural members

5. Structural resistance of the frame
