Now a day’s people are habituated to software for design of structures, Even though they have studied the design and analysis of building elements, they are unable to apply the theoretical considerations to practical things, this is all because of some variation in theoretical and practical considerations in the field. Here we have tried to apply the theoretical part, to practical things like BUILDING and know the fundamentals involved, with this project.
