The 3 Storeys 3 Movie In Hindi Free Download

A storey (British English)[1] or story (American English),[2] is any level part of a building with a floor that could be used by people (for living, work, storage, recreation, etc.). Plurals for the word are storeys (UK) and stories (US). American variant is confusable with the prosaic story.
Houses commonly have only one or two floors, although three- and four-storey houses also exist. Buildings are often classified as low-rise, mid-rise and high-rise according to how many levels they contain, but these categories are not well-defined. A single-storey house is often referred to, particularly in the United Kingdom, as a bungalow. The tallest skyscraper in the world, the Burj Khalifa, also has the greatest number of storeys with 163.[6]
However, in all English-speaking countries, the storeys in a building are counted in the same way: a "seven-storey building" is unambiguous, although the top floor would be called "6th floor" in Britain and "7th floor" in America. This contrasts, for example, with French usage, where a 7-storey building is called une maison à 6 (six) étages. Mezzanines may or may not be counted as storeys.[9]
In France, there are two distinct names for storeys at ground level, depending on whether it faces the street (called rez-de-chaussée,[14]) or a garden (called rez-de-jardin[15]). Buildings which have two "ground floors" at different levels (on two opposite faces, usually) might have both.
In Singapore, the British system of numbering originally prevailed. This was replaced in March 1983 with the North American scheme to create a simplified and consistent standard of numbering storeys.[21] To emphasize the difference from the original scheme, reference is frequently made to storeys rather than floors, where the third (3rd) floor becomes either the fourth (4th) storey (or storey 4) or fourth (4th) level (or level 4). Many buildings continue to label storeys or levels rather than floors. However, in the absence of clear official distinction between the terms, the meaning of "floors" and "levels" have become interchangeable with "storey"; this is reflected in newer buildings. Some buildings in Singapore do use SL (Street Level) for ground level. Some buildings in Singapore, such as Nex and West Coast Plaza uses the European scheme, albeit using "Basement 1" for ground level storey.
Although there are storey height maximums for safety purposes, storeys to feet within the same building can vary. How tall is a storey by building level? How many feet in a storey can change depending on storey function and location within the building:
11. For the purposes of defining whether a building is relevant building, only the storeys from ground level or above count. Any storey below ground level, for example, a basement, does not count. The ground floor is counted as the first storey. A building with an underground car park, a ground floor, and a first floor would be defined as a two-storey building and not a three-storey building.
Storeys is a widely used concept, which allows to accurately analyse each floor as a mass linked to adjacent floors by walls and columns.
Storeys are therefore ideal to perform a seismic design (but storeys are a general concept, so they're not limited for seismic calculations only).
Storey results give a summarized view of results in each storey.
Displacements, accelerations, internal forces and resultant forces may be displayed per storey, either as bulk values for each storey, or as detailed results for each wall and column.
Storeys may also be used for fast determination of load paths.
