A PROPOSED DESIGN OF STEEL PA VILION AT GUDU DISTRICT .. ABUJA F.C. T.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The main purpose of this project is to produce a structural design of steel and reinforced concrete cover pavilion, to vihualizes the aesthetic and safety implication of using steel and reinforced concrete in design. The detail design methods used in this project are according to the British Codes and standards the limit state and Elastic Method of analysis are the basis of the design and the calculations are in S.I. unit all. The design is also buttressed by extracts from CP 110, BS 8110 and BS 5950. The structure has length of 54 .94"m with total width of ] 3.53m and a sitting capacity of 1500 . . The columns are of 3 types which are reinforced with Y20 and Y16 diameter bars, while the beams are of the same size 300 x 600mm exception of the roof beanl which is 225 by 225mtn in size and reinforced with Y25 and Y20 diameter bars. The slab is designed as stair slab which has 17 panels of 6m by 6m and thread of 800mm, with riser of 300mm and are reinforced with YIO as the main reinforcement bars and Yl 0 as the distribution bars. The roof beam 2 is a universal beam, which is bolted to the column C) and Stanchion C2A. The columns rest on foundation footings of 2.45m by 2.45m, 2.5m by 2.5m and 2.6m x 2.6m which are reinforced with Y20 diameter bars. At the end of project work recommendations were made for future work, references are also referenced. vi
