Description
Summary:Equivalent lateral forces are used in earthquake engineering to build structures that can survive seismic shocks. Considering seismic waves affect how the Earth moves, buildings in India’s seismically active areas must be built to withstand earthquakes. This study examines how multistorey reinforced concrete building frames function seismically while taking into account different soil types, loading scenarios, and seismic Zones IV. For a twelve-storey skyscraper, the analysis includes earthquake reaction storey displacement. This study looks into how soil changes in seismic zone IV affect buildings’ responses, as well as how seismic zones themselves affect them. The building’s natural time periods were evaluated using both response spectrum analysis and time history analysis methods. These results provide insightful information about the complex interaction between soil type and seismic zone, Member stresses and maximum displacement are calculated using static and dynamic analysis. In India’s seismically active region, the necessity for earthquake-resistant structures is highlighted by seismic waves that alter the motion of the earth. Response spectrum analysis combines modal responses via techniques including SRSS, CQC, and ABS, taking into account a variety of response modes. This study compares earthquake loads using various soil types in Zone IV to evaluate building performance during earthquakes. This project’s primary goal is to analyse a multistorey building’s seismic response. Staad Pro Software does load calculations in order to analyse the entire structure. Staad-Pro analysis employs the Limit State create approach, which complies with the Indian Standard Code of Practice.
