Abstract

This thesis presents the design and static analysis of the load-bearing construction, built in 2008 as a \npart of the multi-residential building. Load-bearing construction is made out of reinforced concrete \nand consists of walls, walls with openings and deep beams which interconnect with the monolith \nhorizontal plates. The design is carried out in accordance with the current Eurocode standards. The \nimpacts, which affect the building as self-load and permanent loads, imposed loads, snow and wind \nloads and also seismic effects, are taken into account. When designing the load-bearing construction \nthe focus is on analysis of typical load-bearing elements. Analysis is based on idealized computer \nmodels made in commercial programs SAFE (horizontal plate), ETABS (vertical load-bearing \nelements) and SAP (deep beam). The design of load bearing elements is done by the limit states \nmethod. Vertical load-bearing elements were however additionally designed in accordance with \ncapacity design method. The purpose of the thesis is to compare the amount of reinforcement \nestablished in accordance with the Eurocode standards with the built-in reinforcement established \nunder the old Yugoslav regulations PBAB. The comparison in the ceiling plate indicates that the \ndeviation in the amount of the necessary and built-in reinforcement is due to differences in the \naccuracy of computational models. Deviations between built-in and necessary reinforcements in the \ndeep beam are also consequences of a more accurate model used in the thesis. On that account, the \namount of built-in reinforcement exceeds the amount of reinforcement established under Eurocodes; \nhowever the diagonal hanging reinforcement required in the juncture of transverse wall and deep beam \nis not built-in. The amount of reinforcement embedded in the wall without openings exceeds the \namount of reinforcement defined under Eurocodes. When comparing vertical reinforcement in the wall \nbetween beams, we discover that less reinforcement is built-in than required by Eurocodes. Also, the \namount of built-in shear reinforcement in the specified beam is smaller than amount calculated in the \nthesis. Analysis and design results are presented in the reinforcement drawings enclosed at the end of \nthe thesis.
