OBJECTIVE
For the inhabitants (about 5327
households ) displaced due to the
implementation of the Pancheshwar
Power Project on Mahakali river;
housing is required to rehabilitate
them
NECESSITY
Pancheshwar Power Project is proposed as a
Nepal-India bi-national scheme on the Mahakali
river with a capacity of 6720 MW. With its
implementation, a total of 41,330 persons from
5327 households have been displaced for which
rehabilitation works has to be completed by
2012-2013 but as for now the progress is too
slow to reach the deadline.
For faster construction and as an approach to
affordable homes , we provide a solution to
mass housing using precast members.
SCOPE
The project envisages selection of a
suitable plan as per modular coordination
and use of building architecture for proper
functioning and orientation of the building.
The houses are proposed to be classified
on the basis of income groups (i.e. High
Income Group, Medium Income Group
and Low Income Group) which will then
decide the corresponding plan areas.
METHODOLOGY
Selection of a realistic site.
Suggestion of a suitable plan for mass housing with grid
dimensions.
Selection of type of precast structural system.
Collection of necessary data and code books as required
for the project.
Design of foundation as per soil specifications of the site.
Selection of type of connection to be employed.
Design of precast members- Beams, columns and slabs.
Installation of the members as per design plan.
Provision for grid wise extension of the designed plan.
MULTIDISCIPLINARY COMPONENT
AND TEAMWORK
This project involves in interacting with the
government officials of the Pancheshwar Project
for getting necessary data.
SOFTWARE USED
AutoCAD
CONCLUSION (expected)
The project would successfully complete
the design of modular houses using
advanced technology and a solution to
quicker construction with economic
advantages.
Completion of the project will finally help in
gaining vital and practical implementations
in accordance with safety and
serviceability of the designed units.
Distribution of Households as
per Income Groups
As per rehabilitation works at Pancheshwar
Power Project, we need a total of 5327
households, out of which we assume as per
guidance in Planning Commission, Government
of India:
20% belonging to HIG i.e. 1066 households.
50% belonging to MIG i.e. 2664 households.
30% belonging to LIG i.e. 1597 households.
ARCHITECTURAL INPUTS
ORIENTATION
The orientation of a house is done
according to the sun-diagram as shown in
Fig. 3.1
ANTHROPOMETRICS
The dimensions of the human body as shown in Fig. 3.2 and the sizes of the
furniture help in deciding the space required in the design of a room. The
size of the sofa in the living room, dining room in the dining room, bed in the
bedroom, stove and fridge in the kitchen, the closet in the bath etc. help to
decide the size of the rooms with proper clearances provided between the
furniture for easy movement.
SPACE STANDARDS
Space is a specific volume which provides for a
specific form of human activity. The common
factor in buildings and areas in the concept of
space. An architectural space is man-made. The
space must be technically efficient and
aesthetically satisfying.
Every space accommodates an activity or a
function, which decides the area and volume
required. The activities determine the furniture
requirements for the space.
CONCEPT OF MODULAR
COORDINATION EMPLOYED IN THE
PROPORTIONING OF PLAN
Modular coordination is a dimensional coordination
employing the basic module or a multi-module. A Module
is the unit of size used in dimensional coordination. A
multi module is a module whose size is a selected
multiple of the basic module.
The purposes of modular coordination are:
1. To reduce the variety of component sizes produced
2. To allow the building designer greater flexibility in the
arrangement of components.
MODULAR COORDINATION
ADOPTED IN COMPONENTS
FLOORING AND ROOFING SCHEME: Precast slabs or
other precast structural flooring units:
1. Length- multiples of 1M
2. Width- multiples of 0.5M
3. Overall thickness- multiples of 0.1M
. BEAMS:
1. Length- multiples of 1M.
2. Width- multiples of 0.1M
3. Overall depth- multiples of 0.1M

2. Width- multiples of 0.1M
3. Depth- multiples of 0.1M

2. Projection- multiples of 0.5M
CONCEPT OF MODULAR
COORDINATION
Modular coordination is a concept of
coordination of dimension and space, in which
buildings and components are dimensioned
and positioned in a term of a basic unit or
module, known as 1M.
The principal objective of implementing
Modular Coordination is to improve productivity
in the building industry through industrialization.
TERMINOLOGY
Module: A unit of size used as an increment in
dimensional coordination.
Modular size: A size that is a multiple of the
basic module.
Modular grid: A rectangular coordinate reference
system in which the distance between the
consecutive lines is the basic module or a multi
module. The multi module may differ for each of
the two dimensions of the grid.
Multi module: A module whose size is a selected
multiple of the basic module.
BENEFITS OF MODULAR
COORDINATION
To obtain maximum economy in the production of
components.
Simplifies site operations by rationalizing setting out,
positioning and assembly of building components.
Ensures dimensional coordination between
installation (equipment, storage units, other fitted
furniture, etc.) as well as with the rest of the building.
To allow the building design a greater flexibility in the
arrangement of components.
IDENTIFICATION OF
STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS
Masonry wall- A wall made from materials which
have traditionally been cemented together with
the use of mortar.
Reinforced Concrete Columns- They are
structural members designed to carry
compressive loads, composed of concrete with
an embedded steel cage to provide
reinforcement.
DESIGN OF SLAB
SPAN: 3m*5m
STEP 1: TO DETERMINE THE TYPE OF SLAB
Lx = 3m
Ly = 5m
fck = 20 N/mm2
fy = 415N/mm2
Ly/Lx = 1.667< 2
FOOTING
Data:
SBC of soil = 200 kPa
Unit weight of soil = 18 kNm3
= 30
Grade of concrete = M20
Steel bars used = Fe 415
Load from column = 258 kN
Step 1: Determination of depth of foundation:
Depth of foundation = qss[1-sin1+sin]2
= 20018[1-sin301+sin30]2
= 1.3 m
Hence we have to excavate soil upto 1.3 m below ground level
Step 2: Determination of plan area:
Area = A = loadqs
= W+Wfqs
= 258+0.1258200
= 1.419 m2
Step 3: Determination of width of foundation:
Assuming a square footing:
Width of the square footing = B = A = 1.419 = 1.19 m
Lets us assume the width of the footing = 1.2 m
Hence, we have to provide a square footing of size 1.2 m1.2 m
Hence,
v>(kc)
The depth chosen is not adequate as per one way shear criteria and the depth has to be redesigned.
1.52581.22.275-d1.2= .361.2d
From the above equation; d = 274 mm
Adopting the depth to be 300 mm
Step 8: Check for two way shear/ punching shear:
The punching shear occurs at a distance of half of the effective depth from all the faces of column.
v= Vbd
= 2558504600300
= .355 mPa
c = .25fck= .2520 = .64 mPa
ks=1
v< ksc
Hence, the design is safe.
Step 9: Check for bearing stress:
Bearing stress = wcolAg
= 2581033002
= 2.867 mPa
.45fckA1A2 = .45202 = 12.47 mPa
=>2.867<12.47
Hence, the design is safe against bearing.
Step 10: Spacing of reinforcement:
Assuming 10 mm bars for main reinforcement, the spacing = s = .7851021200546.22 = 172 mm 150 mm
Hence, 10 mm dia Fe 415 bars will be provided @ 150 mm c/c distance as main reinforcement.
Spacing of transverse reinforcement:
Assuming 8 mm diameter bars, spacing = s = .785641200.00123561200 = 117.6 mm 100 mm
Hence, 8 mm dia Fe415 bars will be provided @ 100 mm c/c distance as transverse reinforcement.
FOUNDATIONS
The foundations usually cast as in-situ
isolated footings as the local soil
conditions warrant.
The bottom end of the precast column is
connected to the foundation as shown in
