Future doctors office on right
Another office building across the street

5. Zoning General Office 2 (GO-2) Banks and homesteads
The purpose of this district is to create an environment especially suited to a group of professional, general administrative, and general sales offices, together with certain commercial uses primarily to service employees in the district.

Residential dwelling

6. Description Size of Building: 155’ x 100’ Basic Office Building
3 Stories tall
Open floor plan – renters of space can determine the design
Glass façade

7. Elevations

8. Floor Plan - 1st floor

9. Floor Plan - 2nd and 3rd floor

10. Soil Test Kenner dirt, drained Has multiple layers
Black to dark gray in color

11. Foundation Concrete pilings Pilings create more friction
Used in softer ground

12. Structural Plan

13. LRFD Calculations 𝑊 𝑈 =1.2∗1+1.6∗1.5=3.6 𝑘 𝑓𝑡
𝑊 𝑈 =1.2∗1+1.6∗1.5=3.6 𝑘 𝑓𝑡
Beam moment = 3.6∗ = 𝑘𝑓𝑡 using AISC manual table 3-2, W18x50
Girder moment = 3.66∗ ∗2∗10.83= 𝑘𝑓𝑡 using table 3-2 W24x131

14. LRFD Calculations cont’d
Reaction of beams = 3.6∗29 2 =52.2 𝑘
Reaction of girders = 2∗ ∗33 2 =163.8 𝑘
Assume it is going to be a W14x109 based on the column width ≥ 12.9”
Column = 𝑃 𝑈 = 2∗52.2+2∗ ∗3= 𝑘

15. LRFD Calculations cont’d
𝑃 𝑢 = 𝑘
Using table 1-1 we can gather r = 3.73, Ag = 32
𝐾𝐿 𝑟 = .8∗11∗ =28.31 use table 4-22 to find ∅ 𝐹 𝑐𝑟 =42.3
∅ 𝑃 𝑛 =42.3∗32= 𝑘≥ 𝑃 𝑢
