 Objective
•Most of the building have been built on the advise of mid-
level technicians and masons without any professional
structural design input which has been found to be
significantly vulnerable to the earthquake shaking.
•Main Objective of MRT is to provide ready to use dimensions
and details for various structural and non structural elements
which have been pre-established using standard design
procedure for a given condition.
•Can be called as Pre-Engineered Building.
 Terminology
• RCC Frame : A system composed of interconnected
reinforced concrete members functioning as a
complete self-contained unit with oe without the aid
of horizontal diaphragms.
• Masonry infill wall : Any structural wall constructed
in brick with cement sand mortar inside the frame
and intended to carry horizontal load by equivalent
compression strut action.
• RCC Frame Building without Masonry infill wall :
Frame without considering the strength and stiffness
of the infill wall.
Frame structure without infill wall
• Structural Elements
• Slab
• Beam
• Column & Shear Wall
• Stair
• Foundation

 Limitations
• Applicable only foe residential buildings
• Minimum Two bays needed in any direction
• Foundation applicable for isolated building
only
• All Columns resisting lateral load shall be
vertical and shall continue on the same
centerline down to foundation level.
• No soft storey on a building.
 Layout Limitations
• A or B < 6bays
• Maximum length = 25m
• One bay < 4.5m
• A<3B and B/3
• A*B <13.5 Sq.m
• H/A or H/B <3
• H< 11m or 3 stories
 Limitations : Layout
• Wings of the structure
- K1 and K2 < A/4 or B/4
- Width of wing > K1/2 or K2/2
 Basis of Recommendations
• Building : Residential
• Column Plan : 4.5 * 3.0 m bays
• Number of Storey : 3
• Storey Height :
1st Storey = 3.2m
Upper Storey = 2.8m
• Wall thickness : All internal wall = 115mm
Infill and Outer wall= 230to 240 mm
• Cantilever projection : 1.0 m from centre line of the beam
 Basis of Recommendations
• Concrete Mix : M20 (20 N/mm2)
• Rebar : Fe 250, Fe 415, Fe 500
• Mortar : one brick thick wall – 1:6 cement- sand
half brick thick wall – 1:4 cement- sand
• Bricks : Minimum Crushing Strength of 3.5 N/mm2
• Seismic Coefficient : Cd = 0.09 *1.0 + 0.09
 Design of Frames
• All Frames shall be designed:
a. To support the applied vertical gravity
loads ( including the weight of infill walls)
without assistance from the infill walls
b. For seismic conditions, using a seismic
coefficient equal to Cd.
 Toe Wall and Plinth Beam
• All plinth beams shall be constructed on the
toe walls
• Depth of toe wall below ground level – 450
mm or 1.5 ft ar as required.
• Height of plinth = 450 mm or as required.
