3. The maximum spacing of Main bar shall not exceed 200mm (8)
and the distribution bars @ 250mm (10).
4. If the roof slab is supported by load bearing wall (without any
frames) a bed block of 150/200mm shall be provided along the
length of supports which will aid in resisting the lateral forces.
5. If the roof is of sheet (AC/GI) supported by load bearing wall
(without any frames) a bed block of 150/200mm shall be
provided along the length of supports except at the eaves. The
bed block is provided to keep the sheets in position from WIND.
6. For the roof slab provide a min. of 0.24% of slab cross sectional
area reinforcement to take care of the temperature and other
weathering agent and for the ponding of rain water etc since it is
exposed to outside the building enclosure.

COLUMN:
Section should be designed for the column moment values at the
beam face.
Use higher grade of concrete when the axial load is predominant.
Go for higher section properties when the moment is
predominant.
Restrict the maximum % of reinforcement to 3.
Detail the reinforcement in column in such a way that it gets
maximum lever arm for the axis about which the column
moment acts.
Position of lap shall be clearly mentioned in the drawing
according to the change in reinforcement. Whenever there is a
change in reinforcement at a junction, lap shall be provided to
that side of the junction where the reinforcement is less.
Provide laps at mid-height of column to minimize the damage
due to moments (Seismic forces).
Avoid KICKER concrete to fix column form work since it is the
weakest link due to weak and non compacted part.
FOOTING:
Never assume the soil bearing capacity and at least have one
trial pit to get the real site bearing capacity value.
Check the Factor of Safety used by the Geotechnical engineer for
finding the SBC.
SBC can be increased depending on the N-value and type of
footing that is going to be designed. Vide IS-1893-2000(part-I).
Provide always PLINTH BEAMS resting on natural ground in
orthogonal directions connecting all columns which will help in
much respect like reducing the differential settlement of
foundations, reducing the moments on footings etc.
Always assume a hinged end support for column footing for
analysis unless it is supported by raft and on pile cap.
2. The He/t for a RCC wall shall not exceed 30 as per IS: 456=2000,
where He is the effective height of the wall and t is the thickness of the
RC wall. He for a braced wall will be :
4. ARCH:
Let us now invert the shape of a cable under a given load that is
the sag at any point is turned into a rise. The point is now above
the chord joining the end points by the
Same amount it was previously below it. A structure built
according to the funicular shape in COMPRESSION is termed as
an ARCH.
The optional rise to span ratio for an arch is in the range of 1/61/4. The depth to span ratio of an arch is usually in the range of
1/40 -1/70.
5. FOLDED PLATE:
The typical depth /span ratio is in the range from 1/15 to 1/10.
6. FLATE PLATE:
A typical depth of a solid FLAT PLATE is 1/22 -1/18 of the effective
span.
7. TWO-WAY RIBBED SLAB:
Supported on continuous stiff supports are in the range of 1/301/25 of the lesser effective span.
8. FLAT PLATE RIBBED SLAB:
Typical depths of flat plate ribbed slabs are in the range of 1/201/17 of the lesser effective span.
9. DOMES:
The structural depth of DOMES is the full height of the dome
from base to crown. Depth to span ratio range from as low as 1/8 for
shallow domes to for deep domes.
A depth /span ratio of 1/5-1/4 is a common value which is near
optimal for many applications.
