Abstract:
The project aims to do structural design for all the structural members for hotel
consist of 7 floors and has total area of (9211.7 m2
), the importance of structural
design stage about other stages of the building that suitable structural systems for the
building were determined and diversity of structural members for the building like
bridges, columns, one and two way rib and solid slabs and determine the suitable
foundation, and thus the initial architectural plans were converted into executable
plans.
To achieve what the project aims the architectural plans were studied and the suitable
mechanism was selected to distribute the structural elements so that it does not
conflict with the architectural design of the plans, also an accurate structural studying
was made to estimate the expected loads on the structural members of building
according to the Jordanian code, and the structural members of building were
analyzed and designed according to the American code ACI318-14 by using structural
design programs like (Atir, Safe, Etabs and SP column), then the executable plans
were prepared for all structural members of the building to be ready for
implementation.
