1 INTRODUCTION
This report summarises the salient data, assumptions, and principles to be used in the civil and
structural engineering design for the residential development in Plot B10 at Azuri Ocean and Golf
Village, Roches Noires.

It should be highlighted that at the time of submission of this report, the project is still at Stage 2- Concept
Design as per RIBA Plan of Work 2020.

It is therefore understood that this document is being issued with in-progress preliminary drawings to
provide an indication of the likely extent and nature of the structural and infrastructural works on the
project. It is emphasised that the structural and infrastructural designs are not complete, and may
change with architectural or client changes, and as the project progresses towards Stage 4 – Technical
Design Stage.

1.1 Project Description

The project, as presented in Figure 1-1, consists of the construction of 11 blocks of semi-detached
townhouses with associated infrastructural works including roadworks, provision of services,
construction of on-plot stormwater drainage system etc.

1.3 The Site

The site is situated within the Azuri Ocean and Golf Village at Roches Noires in the district of Rivere du
Rempart. It is situated within the Quartier Du Barachois zone within the whole Azuri Village Masterplan
and has an area of 8084 m2. The site is still partially under sugarcane cultivation as shown in Figure
1-2.

Figure 1-2: General site location

The site is bounded as follows:

• Along the Northern side: The future primary smart city road
• Along the Eastern Side: Green space (forming part of the Azuri masterplan)
• Along the Southern Side: The existing B15 Road
• Along the Western Side: The B08 plot consisting of a residential morcellement.

1.3.1 Site Topography

The site is sloping in nature and its elevation varies from 5.40 m to 10.6 m AMSL.

The slope analysis of the site has shown that in general, the site tends to slope in a North-Easternly
direction and has an average slope of approximately 4%.

Since the slope is less than 10%, the risk of landslide is insignificant, and this implies there is no need
for any slope stability analysis according to PPG 9.

2
 Figure 1-3: Contour lines within site boundaries

Figure 1-4: General site slopes

1.4 Expected Ground Conditions

A geotechnical investigation shall be carried out on the plot once the concept stage is completed. This
investigation will consist of trial pits, coreholes as well as in-situ and laboratory testing to ascertain the
engineering properties of the underlying ground before the foundation design is finalised.

3
Geotechnical information gathered from the B08 plot located just adjacent to the B10 site suggest that
the site is likely to be covered by a layer of topsoil, under which a layer of Firm reddish brown high
plasticity silty CLAY - Completely Weathered Basalt (CWB) is expected. In principle, these conditions
are considered favourable for shallow foundation options (strip footing/ pad footings) may be used for
low-rise building projects. However, these will be confirmed after receipt of the findings of the
geotechnical investigation.

1.4.1 Expected Groundwater Conditions

Groundwater table was not encountered during the investigation for the B08 site and is therefore not
deemed to affect the proposed founding solutions for the project. However, this will be confirmed after
receipt of the findings of the geotechnical investigation.

4
2 DESIGN OF ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE
The internal road will provide access to 22 townhouses only and has been designed as a 5.0m wide
local access road in accordance with the requirements of the local authorities. The design criteria are
summarised in Table 2-1.

3 DESIGN OF STORMWATER DRAINAGE SYSTEM
The stormwater drainage design for this project has been designed by adopting a holistic approach of
the Quartier du Barachois zone within the Azuri Village. Due consideration has been given to the
existing drainage facilities which have already been provided in the masterplan to channel the
stormwater to a safe discharge point.

3.1 Overall Drainage Concept

The design of the stormwater drainage system shall seek to attenuate the flows from the project site
such that the post-development outflow rate is equal or less than the value as defined by the
masterplanning team for this B10 plot.

3.2 Design Standards

The following codes and publications shall be used for the design of the internal stormwater drainage
system:

• BS EN 752 Drain and Sewer System outside buildings

• Study of Land Drainage System of the Island of Mauritius (April 2003) carried out by Gibb in
association with Water and Power Consultancy Services (India) Ltd for the Ministry of Public
Utilities
• Drainage Manual by South Africa National Road Agency
• Planning Policy Guidance by Ministry of Housing and Lands

3.3 Design Principles

The following design principles have been considered for the stormwater drainage design:

• The whole stormwater drainage system shall be designed for a 1-in-25-year return period as
required by the Land Drainage Authority.
• Runoff from the roof of each block will be routed through catchpits and underground PVC pipes
which ultimately connect into a common drain on the garden side of each building -see Error!
Reference source not found. and drawing 23-124-L1002 Rev P1 in Appendix A.
• These common drains will have specific discharge points into the main stormwater network of the
smart city as defined by the masterplanning team both in terms of location and invert levels as
illustrated in Figure 3-2.
• Surface runoff from the road will be channelled into a centrally placed RC drain with gratings at
suitable intervals to enable efficient capture of stormwater and easy maintenance.

4 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING DESIGN
4.1 Brief Description of Building Structure

All the townhouse blocks are identical and are Ground + 1 units with approximate overall dimensions
of 11.4m by 15.65m. The maximum floor-to-floor dimension is 3.45m.

The structure of all the villas shall consist of reinforced concrete slabs, beams, and columns. The
perimeter of the buildings shall consist of 200mm thick load bearing hollow blocks coupled with
reinforced concrete frames, consisting of beams and columns where applicable. Structural load-bearing
block-walls shall be generally 150 or 200mm thick while non-structural internal dividing walls shall be
100 or 150mm thick.

The foundations of the buildings shall consist of isolated pad and strip footings, and the ground floor
slab shall consist of an in-situ on-grade floor slab.

A set of preliminary structural drawings have been given in Appendix A.

Figure 4-1: Typical architectural ground floor layout of each villa

4.2 Design Standards

• All designs for reinforced concrete structures shall be carried out in accordance with BS 8110
“Structural Use of Concrete”.
• All designs for steel structures shall be carried out in accordance with BS5950 “Structural Use of

9
 Steelwork in Building” or BS449 “The Use of Structural Steel in Building”. Protection against
corrosion shall be provided as per BS 5493 “Protective coating of Iron and Steel Structures
against Corrosion” for achieving a “very long” life to first maintenance – typically 20 years or
more.
• All designs for structural masonry shall be carried out in accordance with BS5628 “Structural Use
of Masonry”.
• Foundations shall be designed in accordance with BS8004 “Code of Practice for Foundations”.
• Water retaining concrete structures shall be designed in accordance with BS8007 “Code of
Practice for Design of Concrete Structures for Retaining Aqueous Liquids”.
• For any other types of structures, the design shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant
British Standards.

4.3 Durability

The buildings shall have a normal service life of at least 60 years with minimal maintenance. All
structural members should be designed to last for the life of the buildings in the environmental conditions
at the site. The following exposure classifications and minimum concrete strengths have been adopted
based on Table 3.2 of BS 8110-11997:

• External elements: Severe

• Internal elements: Mild

4.4 Fire Rating

All load-bearing walls and R.C. elements have been sized accordingly to achieve the required minimum
period of fire resistance according to the Mauritian Fire Code. All structural elements shall have a
minimum fire rating of 30 minutes.

4.5 Wind Effects

All structures as well as cladding, roofing, windows, etc. shall be designed for withstanding cyclonic
winds. Winds loads shall be calculated in accordance with CP3 “Basic Data for the Design of Buildings”,
Chapter V “Loading”, Part 2 “Wind Loads” for a maximum cyclonic wind speed of 280 km/hr.

4.6 Dead Loads and Imposed Loads

Dead loads and imposed loads shall generally be for residential usage in accordance with BS 6399
“Design Loading for Buildings”, Part 1 “Code of Practice for Dead and Imposed Loads”.

4.7 Earth Pressure

Earth pressures on retaining structures, where required, shall be determined in accordance with BS
8002: 1994 Code of Practice for “Earth Retaining Structures”.

10
4.8 External Openings

The external doors, windows, louvers, etc. shall be in aluminium. They shall be detailed and specified
by the Architect and their procurement shall be done on a Design and Build basis. SJPCE shall provide
a set of structural performance specifications for the aluminium elements and glazing to enable the
suppliers to design the openings and produce shop drawings. Calculations shall be carried out in
accordance with BS 8118 “Structural Use of Aluminium, and members together with fixing details
proposed by the suppliers shall be checked for strength and serviceability requirements against cyclonic
winds. The calculations and shop drawings shall be vetted and commented by SJPCE prior to
manufacture.

11
5 SUSTAINABILITY PRINCIPLES
5.1 Advocating the use of locally sourced building materials

In the local Mauritian context, concrete is the most popular and cheapest building material as compared
to steel and timber because its major constituent, that is, aggregates are locally sourced. In line with
the principles of sustainable development, we have chosen to use concrete hollow blocks and
reinforced concrete as the main building materials to minimise international sourcing thereby reducing
significant energy use on the transport of building materials which counts towards the overall
environmental impacts of the material and hence the buildings.

5.2 Advocating the use of efficiently designed concrete elements

The sizing of reinforced concrete elements shall be optimised while conforming to the specified strength
and serviceability requirements to reduce the use of cement whose production is known to be
responsible for a significant proportion of greenhouse gas emissions.

5.3 Design for longer service life

According to the International Green Construction Code (IGCC), the design service life of building
structures should not be less than 60 years. To ensure longevity of the buildings’ service life, we shall
adopt a set of comprehensive and strict quality control measures to ensure that good quality of
construction materials (especially concrete) is used on site and make sure that proper design, detailing,
and construction methods are employed. These practices will ensure better material durability which in
turn results into less frequent maintenance and replacement, and better adaptability to future
reconfigurations. This reduces the natural resources required for manufacturing and the amount of
money spent on installation and the associated labour.

5.4 Advocating the use of sustainable concrete

The manufacture of cement is a very energy-intensive process, and the worldwide production of cement
is responsible for 5% of carbon dioxide emissions. For this reason, we shall advocate the use of
concrete in which a percentage of cement is replaced by fly ash which is locally sourced.
