Figure 1 - Typical Unit Plan of Jamnagar LIG.

Please Consider W1
Wall W1 has length 3400 mm, and given beam size is 250 mm x 425 mm, so the total height of the wall
will be 2575mm. wall thickness is considered as 150 mm.
As per IS 6041 Clause 4.6.5.2 and Table Number 1 (please refer fig 2)

Figure 2 - Screen shot of IS 6041

Point 2 of the table 1 (in fig 2) shows the considered wall thickness only 200 and 300 mm. however, by
interpolation the ratio of L/H achieved for 150mm and 100 mm are shown below.

Considering W1
L = 3.4 m
H = 2.575 m
T = 150 mm

Considering W15
L =4.3 m
H = 2.575 m
T = 100 mm

As the length of W1 & W15 are less than 12m & the ratio of L/H is less than the required ratio (refer
table 1a & Figure 2). Hence the provisions of horizontal bands are not required.
