INTRODUCTION:
DISTRICT:Faisalabad District is one of the districts of Punjabprovince, Pakistan. After the
independence of Pakistan in 1947, the Muslim refugees from Eastern Punjab and Haryana settled in
the Faisalabad District. Faisalabad district is Initially a part of Jhang District, it gained the status of a
separate district in 1904.. In 1982 Toba Tek Singh District until then a tehsil of Faisalabad was
created as a separate district from Faisalabad. As of 2006 it is a city district consisting of the city
of Faisalabad. The total area of Faisalabad District is 5,856 km2. According to the 2017 census of
Pakistan it had a population of 7.874 million.
INHABITED LAND:
One that occupies a particular place regularly, routinely, or for a period of time OR to live or dwell
in a place (houses and building), as people or animals e.g.: Small animals inhabitedin the woods. In
this assignment we have counted the population of Faisalabad district by joining different inhabited
land layers in Arc Gis. There are seven types of building available in Faisalabad district and those
are:
1. Brick masonry buildings M5
2. Adobe masonry buildings M2
3. Reinforced concrete buildings RC1
4. Concrete block masonry buildings M8
5. Wood/bamboo reinforced masonry buildings M7
6. Stone masonry buildings M1
7. Other masonry buildings OO
These Wythe’s are interconnected either by horizontal joint reinforcement or by using steel ties.
POST-TENSIONED MASONRY WALL:
Post-tensioned masonry walls are constructed to strengthen the masonry walls against the forces
that may induce tension in the wall such as earthquake forces or wind forces. These walls are
constructed from the foundation level and post-tensioning rods are anchored into the foundation.
These rods are run vertically between the Wythe’s or in the core of concrete masonry units.
After the masonry wall construction is completed and cured, these rods are tensioned and anchored
on the steel place at the top of the wall.
INPUT:
Population
No of buildings (for all building types)
Building to population ratio
POPULATION (Compulsory field)
TOTAL_BLD (Compulsory field)
METHODOLOGY:
The software used for this objective is ARC GIS asit provides some basic tools for map viewing,
printing and querying of spatial data. ArcMap is the main component of ArcGIS suite of geospatial
processing programs, and is used primarily to view, edit, create, and analyze geospatial data.
ArcMap allows exploring data within a data set, symbolizing features accordingly, and creating
maps. It also allows working on layers.In this we separate the Faisalabad layer from the map of
Pakistan and import it in ARC GIS software. Then with the base map of Faisalabad district
inhabitant land is marked with the help of polygon feature of software. Layers are then spatially
joined.In the next step number of buildings of each building type is put in field table and population
living in those building (by dividing them by 1000).
OUTPUT:
The final file obtained in ARC GIS is database of Faisalabad District which is in the format of shape
file. The database obtained is used in Eller software, this database is important to find out the
building damage through Eller.
