Abstract:
This project aims to design a therapeutic hotel, which is a very luxurious construction project.
The hotel is located in the city of Hebron - Nimra. The land area allocated for the project is
18,500 square meters. The building was designed to occupy an area of 2,580 square meters of the
total area of the land, with the remaining area allocated to green spaces and recreational
facilities.
Due to the large area of the project, we faced many construction challenges, the most important
of which was the distribution of the structural system of columns, bridges, nodes, walls, and
foundations, and determining the locations of expansion joints, as this project is characterized by
the diversity of architectural design from floor to floor, which posed a challenge in distributing
columns and determining Their locations affected the distribution and design of slabs and
bridges, so we will resort to using safe and economical solutions, such as choosing the
appropriate types of knots for the structural system.
The analysis and design has been done by using structural design programs such as and not
limited (SAFE) (ETABS), (Atir), (AutoCAD) and (Excel).
The results obtained lead to the development of an integrated structural design that meets the
standards of the ACI-318-19 Structural Design Code, in addition to meeting the owner’s desires
and ensuring complete safety. The hotel's architectural aesthetic standards are also taken into
account to ensure harmony and visual appeal.
