Architectural and structural design for a office building of Guangxi JiaBao Modern Agriculture Co., Ltd. Abstract This paper is designed for an 8-storey high-rise office building located in Nanning. Combined with the architectural design and considered the characteristics of residential buildings, this design adopted the frame shear wall structure. This design includes two parts of architectural design and structural design. The architectural design part including the architectural plane, building elevation and profile design, mainly cope with the problems of the plane layout and facade formation, and designed to some detailed dimensions. The structural design part mainly composed by internal force calculation and cross-section design. The internal force calculation part calculated wind load and the vertical gravity load by the basic data, which mainly used the methods of " Layering method", "D value method" etc. then to do the cross-section design and calculation on the base of load combination, which including section size of the components and reinforcing bars design. This building foundation adopts under-column foundation and raft foundation. This design is in accordance with every stipulation of the national latest specifications and civil engineering design and to do aided design and draft using graphics software such as Auto CAD, PKPM etc. Keywords: frame, structural design, architectural design, under-column foundation, raft foundatio
