Design of Concrete Structure - Complex Engineering Problem
Design a complete frame structure (slabs, beams, column, footings and retaining walls) for the
data as given below. You are required to prepare the architectural plans at first with elevation.
Then draw structural drawings for all members, using AUTCAD. You are also required to
submit the design report with hard copy of structural drawings, printed on A3 sheet. For all
cases, take the loads from ACI 308 – 14 and assume fc’ = 3000 psi with fy = 60000 psi. Assume
compatible roof clearance.
