This project designed a multi-story building in the northern town of Migdal HaEmek, with 12 typical floors, a penthouse, and two commercial floors. Each floor has 4 apartments with individual residential bomb shelters. Phase A focused on designing a typical floor, which included calculating ceiling loads, and proposing three ceiling alternatives. These were then evaluated for moments, deflection, cost, execution time, and architectural compatibility. The selected ceiling was structurally verified, with reinforcement plans prepared using STRAP software. Phase B included full building design, including load transfer to the foundation and earthquake resistance modeling. Vertical elements like shelter and separation walls were analyzed for rigidity. Shelter components and columns were designed and checked for seismic response. Finally, total building loads were calculated, and the foundations were designed to resist all structural forces.

This project involved the structural design of a 12-story residential building in Tayibe, a city near Kfar Sava. The design focused on earthquake resistance, from architectural analysis to engineering solutions. The project included advanced floor design, seismic analysis using static and modal methods, and validation with STRAP software. A 3D STRAP model assessed deep foundation reactions, guided by soil data and seismic scenarios. It also explored how building height, soil type, and reinforcement would affect stability. Several floor-slab design alternatives were evaluated for cost, construction time, and feasibility. Internal forces and reinforcement needs were calculated for both serviceability and long-term durability of the materials. Final structural plans were created per project guidelines.
