COMPARATIVE STUDY OF LOW RISE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS INTERMS OF PLATE STRESS AND ECONOMIC EVALUATION WITH SOLID SLAB AND RIBBED SLAB: STATIC ANALYSIS

In this thesis paper, the comparison of frame with solid slab vs composite slab for seismic loading and gravity load are analyzed using manual and staad.provi8 software to insure either frame with solid slab or frame with ribbed slab are economical, stable and one of either capable to withstand designed load over its designed life.Additionally the structure is modeled and analyzed using staad.prov8i software and compared in terms of plate stresses, deflection and economic evaluation of low rise Residential building with solid slab or rib slab-concrete block slab using linear static analysis under gravity & lateral loading.

Finally as per analysis and design, it is proved that the residential building with solid slab can resist the required structural stresses like lateral deflection, bending stress, shear deflection and provide the required structural stability against lateral and uplift pressures than structure with ribbed slab.
