Introduction
The present project addresses the cover of a basketball court. The play area
has the dimensions of 15mx28m while the cover is 20mx 39m. The Proposed
structure is to be made of steel elements and covered by poly carbon
transparent sheets. The structure is a standalone structure which should have
a minimum height of 7 meters.
The intension is to use different sections, 2 different structural systems and
different bracing configuration. A feasibility study follows to minimize cost.
This is achieved by minimizing the resulting design weight. The design
exercise includes the design of concrete spread footings, and all relevant
connections.
Codes
The structure was designed using codes of practice and specifications that
control the design process and variables.
The following codes and standards were used in this project:
1- IBC: International Building Code.
2- ACI: American Concrete Institute provision for reinforced concrete structural
design.
3- Jordanian code.
4- UBC-97 code.
Loads
There
are two types of loads based on
direction, gravity and lateral loads.
Gravity loads:
Dead load:
The weight of materials of construction incorporated into the building, including
but not limited to walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, stairways, built-in partitions,
finishes, cladding and other similarly incorporated architectural and structural
items, and the weight of fixed service equipment, such as cranes, plumbing
stacks and risers, electrical feeders, heating, ventilating and air-conditioning
systems and automatic sprinkler systems.
live load:
A load produced by the use and occupancy of the building or other structure that
does not include construction or environmental loads such as wind load, snow load,
rain load, earthquake load, flood load or dead load.
Snow load:
Loads resulting from the accumulation of snow on the roof of the building
vary widely according to the geographical location (climate) and height above
the mean sea level (MSL).
Snow load are computed according to the Jordanian code for snow loads.
Rain load:
Each portion of a roof shall be designed to sustain the load of rainwater that
will accumulate on it if the primary drainage system for that portion is
blocked plus the uniform load caused by water that rises above the inlet of
the secondary drainage system at its design flow.
Lateral loads:
Wind load:
Wind load is produced due to change in momentum of an air striking the
surface of a building.
Seismic loads:
There are two principles to design seismic load:
The equivalent static force procedure.
Dynamic analysis.
The equivalent static force method depend in equation F=ma , this formula
depends on replacing of the seismic force by equivalent force called shear base force.
Load Combinations:
Analysis
Determination of load of those two models:
dead load :
Each frame in case 1 has weight equal to 27.9 KN equal 2.84 ton.
Each frame in case 2 has steel weight equal to 17.42KN equal 1.77 ton and
concrete weight equal 126 KN equal 12.84 ton.
Live load:
Snow
load
S: snow load (kg/ )
h: height above (MSL) which know for Ramallah = 850 m (Jordanian code).
The snow load in Ramallah equal 112.5 kg/ .
load:
Rain
R= 0.0098(ds+dh)
where:
dh= Additional depth of water on the undeflected roof above the inlet of
secondary drainage system at its design flow (i.e., the hydraulic head), in
inches (mm).
ds= Depth of water on the undeflected roof up to the inlet of secondary
drainage system when the primary drainage system is blocked (i.e., the static
head), in inches (mm).
R= Rain load on the undeflected roof, in psf (kN/m 2). When the phrase
"undeflected roof" is used, deflections from loads (including dead loads) shall
not be considered when determining the amount of rain on the roof.
(ds+dh) know for Nablus about 100 mm
The rain load in Nablus equal 0.98 kN/ .
.The rain load is vary small as a result neglect it
Wind load:
Assumption:
Velocity = 100 km/hr =27.78 m/s.
Exposure B.
I=1.
K zt=1.
Then qz=402Kz
H= 9 m
H less than 18m high of structure.
And less than 20 m width of structure.
Then the the structure is low-raised.
Inl lee ward Cp=-0.5
And Kh= 0.72
Then P= 123.012 N/m2
In side wall Cp=-0.7
P=202.608 N/m2
In wend ward Cp=+0.8
P=196.819 N/m2
Pmin=500/1.3 x Cp
For lee ward Pmin =192.3 N/m2
For side wall Pmin = 269.23 N/m2
For wind ward Pmin =307.7 N/m2
Because Pmin for all side largest than P , use Pmin for all side.
Sismic load:
Assumption:
The structure located in Nablus city
Zone 2B then Z=0.2
The type of soil is rock SB
R=8
Calculation:
Cv=0.2
Ct=0.035
Then T=2.05
W=22.4 KN
V for steel column structure=0.3
W=136.2 KN
V for concrete column structure=1.66
Checks
Compatibility Check
Check the model using the animation tool in SAP.
Case 1
Case 2
Check Equilibrium
This check will done for each load pattern separately, here we will check Live
Load pattern:
For live load : (3x2+6x7)=48 KN , base reaction from live load =48KN, OK.
For snow load : (5.63x2+11.25x7)=90.01KN
base reaction from snow load =90KN,OK.

Results and conclusion
1- Comparing between two structural models weight and price.
Case 1 has weight equal to 27.9KN equal 2.84 ton
Price of one ton equal 3000 NIS
Then the frame price equal 8535 NIS
And structure approximately price equal 110955 NIS
Case 2 has weight equal to 17.42KN equal 1.77 ton
Price of one ton equal 3000 NIS
Then the frame price equal 5328 NIS
And steel structure price equal 69264 NIS
And the price of concrete equal to 19656 NIS
All price equal 88920 NIS .
2- Base shear reaction
The base shear reaction for case 1 equal to 0.3
The base shear reaction for case 2 equal to 1.66
The deferent between base shear reaction is product from deferent in weight .
3- Shown in previous results the deferent in design of section size, this size is
affected by type of material and size of columns.
4- Shown in previous checks the deferent in deflection values between two
cases , case 1 has more deflection.
