This project aims to design a small manufacturing facility and accompanying office space after its schematic design phase using the resulted space planning as a basis for the schematic design for the structure. Using relevant design criteria as material compressive, yield strength and density, the problem solving for the structure was investigated through three design phases: structural loads and floor framing, column and wall design and documentation, and lateral system and foundation design and documentation. Chicago Building Code was used to determine the uniform loads, design calculations were solved using class lectures as a reference, their results were used to identify lateral loads and load paths and to design the lateral system lastly. Documentation was through Revit.
