Structural Design and Architectural Design are two different disciplines that are interrelated. Structural Design deals with the study of the design of steel or concrete in a structure, i.e., the internal skeleton of the structure that helps to keep the structure durable, sound, and stiff.
Whereas Architectural Design deals with designing spaces meant for a particular function. It helps to create an ambient environment that is pleasing to the eye. The Architect designs the building, keeping all the functional aspects in mind that are to be incorporated into the design. Then, they are executed by a Civil or Structural Engineer.
Two disciplines are extremely related to each other for collaboration
With ideCAD Structural, concrete, and steel structures are analyzed and designed with the DGT Integrated approach. Concrete design is made by applying TBDY 2018 and TS 500 ASCE 7-16 and ACI 318-19 conditions. Concrete design parameters and reinforcement and concrete parameters (spacers, minimum pursantagepercentage, minimum stirrup spacing, shear cross reinforcement type, etc.) to be used in the to design of concrete elements (column, beam, slab, shearwall, foundation, retaining wall, etc.) are determined. The Structural design results of concrete and steel elements are examined from their dialogues, and necessary interventions are made.
