Assignment Task

A multi story building is to be designed and constructed in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. A preliminary  assessment by the engineer has nominated that a concrete framed building would be most suitable. The  engineer has nominated the geometry of the structure as per figures 1 and 2 below.  
The beams and columns will be rigidly connected using steel reinforcement and should be designed as a  moment resisting frame to resist the horizontal forces which will be imposed on the structure due to wind  actions (Wu) in the locations shown in figure 1. The columns are fully fixed into footings at their base and  footing to column connection can be assumed as rigid for design purposes. All column dimensions should be  taken as 500mm x 500mm square in cross section. Each level is to be designed for retail loads (shopping areas,  classification D in AS1170.1 table 3.1) using respective dead and live loads extracted from AS1170.1. After  analysis by the engineer, dead load (DL) including finishes is to be taken as 15 kN/m and the live load (LL)  should be taken as 40 kN/m. A wind loading analysis conducted by the engineer has determined that a constant  positive wind load of (Wu) of 50 kN at each level.

Prior to the design of the structural members, an analysis is required to determine the critical design actions  such as bending moments, shear forces and axial forces in all members of the frame. 
The self weight of the RC floor system should be considered in addidtion to dead and live loads derived from  AS1170.1 at each floor. The gravity loads should include self weight of the beams, slabs and columns. 
As the cadet engineer on the project, you are requried to perform the following tasks: Design Task 
Based on AS1170.0, the designer has determined that two load combinations for ultimate limit state should  be used to determine the critical design actions on the structure for later use in design: Ed1 = [1.2G, Wu, 0.4Q]  and Ed2 = [1.2G, 1.5Q]. These load combinations have been already setup in the spacegass files which have  been provided to you with this project. As a result, you are not required to carry out any analysis for this  project but shopuld use the spacegass analysis results to design your various members. Based on the load  combination which result in the worst design actions in the member under consideration, determine the  following: 
1. Design the continuous beams on level 1 
2. Design a typical reinforced-concrete column at the ground level for the worst load conditions considering  combined actions (this will be for any of the 3 columns). The columns are braced in the out of page  direction. 
All slab, beam and column reinforcements are to be detailed. Sketch plans, elevations and cross sections to  demonstrate the type, location and amount of reinforcing steel to be used for the slab (top, bottom, shear), the  beam (top, bottom, shear) and column. 
The task does not require you to calculate any external dimensions of slabs, beams or columns. The architect  has set the dimensions of the concrete profile and you are constrained with them. All beam widths and depths have been provided in Figure 2. As a part of the design, you are required to check the adequacy of these  dimensions, and document the reinforcement required, in accordance with AS3600-2018.
General Instructions 
All final design submissions must be completed on computation sheets (non-Swinburne University  computation sheets are acceptable). 
The first page of your design must be marked A and is a title page, containing the name of the person(s)  responsible for the submission, and the project title. The second page marked B is the index of the succeeding  pages of computations and sketches. The following pages should be numbered consecutively, including the  total number of pages. For example 4/21, 4 of 21, fourth page of a total of 21 pages
