New single-story retail building
This project involves designing a single-story retail building framed with structural steel and supported by a concrete foundation, utilizing a concentric moment frame lateral system. The scope includes determining allowable bearing pressure based on soil data, calculating live, dead, and environmental loads, foundation design, and design of the steel superstructure. The team will use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software to design the steel superstructure and foundation footings, conducting checks on structural components through hand calculations. Construction drawings will be prepared, including recommendations for reducing the carbon footprint and calculations for carbon emission.
