An
auditorium offers immense potential to increase connections with community to a
large extent. From the literature, it is observed that most of the auditoriums
were designed for only two-way slab and by considering different types of
footing. Analysis and designs were not available for auditoriums with different
types of slabs. Comparative studies are also not available for the same and that
necessitated this project. The main objective is to plan, analyse and design an
auditorium with one-way, two-way and grid slab. The project involves the
planning, analysis, and design of an auditorium with a seating capacity of 500
people as per the of (IS 2526-1963 [5]). The plans of an auditorium were
developed using AutoCAD software. Analysis and design of an auditorium were
carried out using STAAD Pro software. An auditorium with two-way slab is found
to be economical compared to an auditorium with one way slab and grid slab
based on the volume of concrete required. The critical elements of auditorium
such as slabs, beams, columns and footings were manually designed for the
forces and moments obtained from the analysis. From this project, it is concluded
that the grid slab offers lesser thickness. However, by considering design an
auditorium with two way slab was found to be more economical.
