SCOPE OF WORK

Design and detailing of structures ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNS Based on the concept developed, detailed architectural drawings shall be compiled. The drawing shall consist of all drawing essential for all type of clearances and sufficient details for the designer to design the structures. Drawings shall depend on the type of clearance essential and efforts shall be made to suit the requirements. Typically the clearance essential in India are: a) b) c) d) e) f) Machine/ Lift clearance Forest/ Tree authorities Municipal/ Gram panchayat / Development board/ District authorities Electricity departments including HT line clearances Environmental clearance including necessity of STP Fire department

Some of the approvals and sanctions depend on the value of the project and shall be not required for small size of project. Some additional sanctions could be essential based on the location of the plot (CRZ clearance etc) and its proximity to certain infrastructure (airport etc) facilities. The primary concept shall also define the philosophy of usage of external faade and of all important inputs like type of furniture, landscape, kitchen furniture and equipments, fire and safety systems, interior layouts etc. Proper care shall be taken to account for each and every requirement of space of the client. Functional and ergonomics requirements shall also be considered and where ever it is found that our inputs could enhance the functional usage of the structure, we shall provide appropriate advice to the client. STRUCTURAL DESIGNS: Systematic procedure for design of a structure that shall be followed is as under: 1.0 Loading on a structure: - Loads on a structure can be a Live Load, dead Load, Floor Finish, Wind Load, Seismic Load, and Special Loading (e.g. Equipments etc.) 2.0 Evaluation of loads and determination of worst loading condition: - Load evaluation is done as per requirement of a structure. All the loads are summarized and taken for all further calculation.

3.0 End condition determination: - Fixing of End Conditions for a structure is done as per structural requirements. (e.g. Cantilever, simply supported, Fix end conditions) 4.0 Frame analysis for bending moments and shear forces: - Frame analysis is done by STADD by application of evaluated loads for evaluation of Maximum Bending and Shear and its location. 5.0 Assumption of material properties: - Material properties can be Grade of Steel and Concrete, Density, Type etc. For all marine structures concrete used is M50 and for all other works it is M 40. Residential structures have been designed in M35. The grade of concrete is assumed as above with Durability as the main criterion. 6.0 Assumption of sectional details and reworking of sectional details: - Evaluation of a minimum sectional requirement (Thickness, Depth etc.) for maximum Bending Moment and Shear force. 7.0 Check of section for adequacy of shear, bending, and deflection: - Check the section for permissible one way / two way shear, deflection, and bending as per IS Code provision.
8.0 Determination of steel requirements: - Evaluation of a minimum steel required

and main steel requirement. Coal provision of minimum steel is taken into consideration while determination of steel to be provided for a given section. The sections are not designed for sudden failure. 9.0 Transmission of loads: - Evaluation of load transmission (e.g. From slab to beam, beam to column, column to foundation). Designs are first done by evaluation of loads on all slabs at the top section, which is then transferred to the respective column through the beam. Subsequently loads on the slab below this level is taken and the loads from the top column are transferred to the column below till we reach ground floor. All loads are then transferred to the foundation system. 10.0 Design the elements for respective loading as per Step 4 to Step 8 respectively. The designs shall be done in conformity to various equivalent of the IS codes as listed under.

Detailing The IEPL shall provide the Detailing and working drawing generation services in the following disciplines. Preparation and generation of all working drawings for the entire building as per general arrangement drawings, architectural and structural design drawings provided to us by the client. The detailed working drawings shall comprise a) Central line plan for foundation with foundation layout. b) Dimension details of all floor plan including details of all openings. c) Details of all materials and finishes to be constructed. d) Elevation and the essential sectional details for elevation. e) Door and window details f) Details of all special and specific architectural features g) Layout details of all services and utilities h) Structural detailed drawing and schedule of all RCC members i) Typical connection details in case of prefabricated structures. Detailing Software Detailing and working drawing shall be generated on AutoCAD software only. Responsibilities 1. 2. 3. 4. It is our responsibility to arrange for all the Hardware, Software and Consumable etc to complete the entire job of detailing to the satisfaction of the client. It is our responsibility to prepare chart showing flow of drawings identifying task and responsibilities. We shall provide monthly/ weekly work progress and completion schedule. It is the responsibility of the client to allow the design professional both adequate time and financial resources to prepare a complete set of design documents. Unless the designers provide us with the design inputs we can not provide the working drawings. Lack of design input does not constitute incomplete work on our part. It is the responsibility of the design professional to provide the client with complete and accurate design documents that give thorough information (per AISC Code of Standard Practice) that allows the detailer to correctly interpret the design intent and to produce quality drawings. It is our responsibility to inform the client of the inadequacies of the design documents during the review phase and the extra detailing cost and schedule impact of those inadequacies. It is the responsibility of the client to sort out the cost implication arising due to design inadequacies and the impact on the resulting cost and schedule

It is our responsibility to produce working/ construction drawings, not to check or coordinate contract documents. Should the client desire we should perform such an activity or to prepare Engineering Clarification Memos (RFI), such activities shall be considered as extra work for which we are entitled to compensation.
