The document provides calculations for structural elements of a proposed warehouse in Lusaka, Zambia including:
1) A 200mm thick ground floor slab with minimum required reinforcement of 598 sqm which has 1005 sqm provided.
2) A staircase with minimum required reinforcement of 1160 sqm which has 1608 sqm provided and meets design requirements.
3) Pad footings at 1.25m x 1.25m x 200mm thick that provide adequate bearing capacity and bending reinforcement for column loads.
4) A staircase support column that is 200x200mm and 2593mm high which meets slenderness and strength requirements with the provided Y20 reinforcement.
