Seismic Analysis of Multi-Storey Building Structure with Shear Walls at the Center Core and Center of Each Side of the External Perimeter

In the present study, a typical multi storey building is analyzed using software ETABS by dynamic (Response Spectrum) analysis. All the analyses has been carried out as per the Indian Standard code books. Based on the literature of previous studies most effective positioning of shear walls has been chosen. Analysis is done on forty storey high and provided with Shear Walls at the center core and at the center of each side of the external perimeter. Seismic performance of building model is evaluated. This study is done on RC framed multistory building with RC shear walls with fixed support conditionsThe usefulness of shear walls in the structural planning of multistory buildings has long been recognized. When walls are situated in advantageous positions in a building, they can be very efficient in resisting lateral loads originating from wind or earthquakes. Incorporation of shear wall has become inevitable in multi-storey building to resist lateral forces. In present work, Fortystorey buildings (120m) for earthquake zone V in India. This paper aims to study the behaviour of reinforced concrete building by conducting dynamic analysis for most suited positions and location of shear wall. Estimation of structural response such as; storey displacements, base shear, storey drift and Stress Distribution is carried out. Dynamic responses under zone V earthquake as per IS 1893 (part 1): 2002 have been carried out. In dynamic analysis; Response Spectrum method is used.
