Fall down of Building Because Of Imperfections in Plan and Blueprints
Fall down of building, that is, structure breakdown related to structural design and drawings has turned out to be a critical problem in several regions of the planet. It has nearly turned out to be a usual occurrence when the commercial and residential buildings fall resembling a house of cards.
Many structures fall down for the duration of the construction itself whereas some buildings fall down at the same time as being inhabited until after many years. It leads to loss of properties as well as human lives.
Plan in fact begins with the selection of materials, planning and arrangement of structural components and their dimensions. That should be conducted in a way that the load is simply shifted to base with no deviation/imperfection.
Structure collapse because of flaws in structural plan and defective representation for construction: In some cases the flaws in the structure are due to unfinished, wrong and inadequately synchronized plan.
The structural design is highly important for the structure as it has an effect on the fundamental steadiness and lifetime of the building. Robust design is very important for enhanced functioning and minimum preservation of the structure.
It is noticed that abrupt structure fall down takes place due to structural design faults. Inappropriate design choices will reduce the building condition and leads to imperfections throughout the lifetime of the structure.
Therefore, imperfection in structural design is a main cause for structure collapse.
There are several reasons for the breakdown and fall down of building whether partly or complete. One among them is fall down because of faulty plan and blueprints.
Subsequent are the errors at the same time as designing Reinforced Cement Concrete or load bearing structure:
- Faults in specifying horizontal and vertical load path that is non-engineered load path.
- Failure to fulfil fundamental codal provision such as least dimension of bar diameter, or least percent of reinforcement, least dimension of structural components, that is, least column width must be 300 mm, least percentage of steel in column must be 0.8 percent and least diameter of bar in column marked 12 mm and like that.
- Incorrect supposition of structure geometry, its working, and upright and level joints.
