Abstract
In this project, we will do structural analysis and design of Kofr Al-labad secondary school for boys.  The school is a reinforced concrete structure that consists of 4 building blocks, each with 5 floors having a total area of (4570 m2) and is located in Kofr Al-labad town. This project has good advantages for society since it will provide a new school for the small town and also it will provide job chances for many people. Also this project is very important for us as students since it will be a real structure that we will design to practice our engineering skills for analysis and design and to apply the courses that we took in university and it will give us good experience. In this project we will carry out analysis and design of the buildings considering gravity and seismic loads. In the first part of the project, we will analyze and design the structure only under gravity loads, and during second part, we will complete the analysis and design of the buildings for seismic loads. The methodology that we will follow in this project is to get the architectural drawings, and propose structural systems to carry vertical and lateral loads. Then we will design the building using SAP 2000 program under gravity and seismic load. We will use hand calculations to check results of SAP2000. Then finally we will draw the detailings of each structural element.
