With an increase in the number of private schools in the past few years, Srinagar has proved itself to be the only district in Kashmir region where government run primary/middle schools are in the most lackluster condition where in the most basic facilities e.g., drinking water, toilets, proper seating arrangement, library, etc. are severely lacking in both quality and quantity. The reason being that there has been less development in the government run schools is due to the decline in the enrollment of students in the government schools. The lack of proper infrastructure in government schools forces the parents to spend more on their children resulting them in sending their wards to private schools with facilities like proper playgrounds, classrooms, library etc. that government schools can barely compete with. The main objective of this project is to analyze, design and do cost estimation of G+1 primary school building with all the basic infrastructure and facilities as per the requirements mentioned in the IS:8827 and NBC codes. The school has been designed for a strength of students up to 400. The total plot area of the building is 3300 sq.meter. The Planning of the school building was done with AutoCAD software for drafting conceptual plans, structural plan, and architectural plans. The analysis and design was carried out in STAAD pro software, considering the seismic zone of the region seismic analysis was also performed in order to make sure to erect the building that is safe during the seismic activities that are prevalent in the region. In addition to this, other loads such as self-weight, dead load, live load, and load combinations were also considered during the design phase as per IS Codes. The design was optimized by performing various trials for beams and columns in order to make building economical. Foundation design was done with the help of STAAD foundation where all the parameters were taken as per Indian standard codes. Finally, the cost estimation of the project was done using Microsoft excel to find the approximated cost of the building using single line method
