Design Philosophy
1. Overview
The existing building appears to be a Victorian or an Edwardean detached dwelling house. The
building is of masonry construction with suspended timber floors and a timber framed roof. The
original house has been extended to the side in the past.
To facilitate the loft conversion, new beams will be inserted at roof and loft level to support the
new loft as well as the new loft loadbearing walls and columns. The loadbearing walls are to
support the new ridge beams and rafters and allow for the removal of the existing diagonal
strutting. These shall be designed at a later stage if and when a planning application for the loft
has been granted.
New steel beams and frames are to be installed to create the structural openings at the rear and
amalgomate the new extension with the existing accomodation. Further steels will be required to
support the first floor walls which are offset from those at ground floor level. The new extension is
to feature a timber (and steel) framed roof and perimeter loadbearing walls resting onto strip
footings. The depth of footings to be determined in accordance with Building Regs Part A and
NHBC recommendations for construction near trees.
Please refer to the STS structural drawings for more information.

2. Loading and the Structural Model


The structure is subject to dead, imposed and wind loading. All loading is listed and also
graphically shown in the analysis.
All steel sizing was done in accordance with BS5950. The relevant load combination for sizing
was 1.4*Dead+1.6*Imposed load. The deflections were checked for unfactored combinations of
loading.
The typical loading data is listed below:

Flat or Pitched Roof:


DL, 1.00 kN/m2
LL, 0.75 kN/m2
Floors:
DL, 0.4 kN/m2
LL, 1.5 kN/m2
Stud partition:
DL, 0.40 kN/m2 (of the actual partition)
or DL, 0.50 kN/m2 (per m2 of the floor average for lightweight partitions)
Solid walls:
DL, 18 kN/m3 (12 kN/m3 for new lightweight concrete blockwork walls)

Design Philosophy

3. Preliminary risk assessment


The contractor must provide a method statement and submit it to all relevant authorities and the
designer for checking. The method statement must provide a full risk assessment, indicating all
hazards and provide adequate measures to ensure a safe construction environment.
In addition to standard H&S measures associated with steel, concrete, excavation and other
types of work, care must be taken to ensure all risks associated with a renovation project like this
must also be considered. These include:
- Working in a confined environment, and safe delivery and installation of steelwork to minimise
disruption to the existing house.
-Temporary propping of the existing roof and other structural elements must be done to a high
standard to ensure the stability of the structure at all stages of the construction. The contractor
must provide temporary works design and submit it to the engineer for approval.
-To minimise the disruption to the neighbourhood all refuse must be delicately handled. The
noise pollution must be kept to a minimum at all times, and particularly if the construction is
carried out outside of the normal working hours and at weekends.

General Information:
Assumed unit settlement of soil 20mm for 100kN/m2 permitted bearing stress
This gives the unit stiffness coefficient of soil 100kN/m2 / 0.02m = 5000 kN/m3
Assumption is that the footing itself is infinitely stiff (compared to the soil)
The total width of the footing is 0.53m (worst case scenario), hence, the
stiffness for a linear support is 5000 x 0.53 = 2600 kN/m/m
The width of the box-frame = length of the bottom member
The reaction are from the first floor beam analysis + s.w. of columns
