Abstract
This project is dealing with the structural design of a commercial building named as "Al-Affori Building". This building is constructed on Kafeer street-Rafedia, and established for commercial and residential purposes. The construction consists of ten floors in addition to a roof area. Two floors are designed as parking, one for stores, three are galleries and the others contains both galleries and apartments. The main Idea of this project is to address the structural design aspects of irregularity of the building. The structural design of the mentioned structure was carried under gravity and seismic loads using commercial software SAP2000 and verified manually. Structural design of slabs, beams, columns, footings, in addition to the shear walls were conducted in both; 1-D and 3-D. The 1-D analysis was verified manually according to the ACI specifications. The Structural elements were designed as reinforced concrete members according to strength and serviceability criteria as specified in ACI 318-11. For seismic design, UBC 97 was used. Finally, detail drawings were prepared for the design showing all structural elements, and the required steel reinforcement in addition to the required spacing according to the standards and practice.
