Note --20 perch land and it is a fairly flat terrain. A trial pit dug to investigate
the soil condition revealed that it has laterite soil and the water table was found to be 3m
below the ground.
propose a suitable design based on the following
criteria.
c) Design the interior load-bearing wall between the ground floor and first floor.
Suggest a suitable masonry unit and specify the type of mortar required.
d) Lateral wind load acting on one of the perimeter walls between the ground floor and
first floor was calculated to be 1 kN/m2. Design the wall for lateral load based on the
flexural strength of masonry. -The blue arrowed wall.
e) Select an opening in one of the walls on the ground floor. Propose suitable
dimensions for a lintel beam based on design calculations. Explain the importance
of providing lintel beams for such openings.
f) Suggest a suitable foundation for the load bearing walls. You may show the details
using a sketch. requires you to produce detailed design calculations with references. Since the
client does not have any engineering background, he/she needs you to provide an executive
