Abstract:
The structural design is considered as one of the most important stages in the building , The
concept of structural design in Civil Engineering can be summarized as the practice of all
activities related to the mathematical modeling and analysis of civil structures , such as
supporting foundations ,residential buildings ,bridges .
The aim of this project is the structural analysis and design for the constituent elements of the project for
(Transylvania Hotel) which is located in Hebron city and consist of 10 floors (2 basement , ground ,
services , first ,5 duplicate floors) with a total site area of 29938 m2 . In this stage all columns locations
should be determined in a way that goes with the architectural design in order to make the plans
executable, and determining the loads for the building based on the Jordanian code.
The structural design of the elements will be done based on the American code (ACI) , and determine live
loads according to Jordanian code, after that each structural element will be analyzed and designed using
some of engineering programs such as ATIR, SAFE, ETABS. In the end, the executive plans will be
prepared for all the structural elements of the building structure to make the building feasible
