ANALYSIS OF MULTI-STOREY BUILDING WITH DIFFERENT OUTRIGGER SYSTEM AND LOCATIONS
Abstract: ABSTRACT- Designing and constructing high-rise buildings requires structural systems that can efficiently resist lateral forces caused by wind and seismic activity. Outrigger systems are commonly used in tall structures to increase lateral stiffness, minimize building drift, and better use structural materials. This research examines the performance of multi-storey buildings incorporating various outrigger configurations, including traditional outriggers, belt trusses, deep beams, and shear wall systems. A response spectrum analysis is carried …

Analysis of Effect Due to Various Heat Treatment Processes on Morphological and Microstructural Properties of Grey Cast Iron
Abstract: Abstract Grey cast iron, a member of the cast iron family, is defined by the presence of flake graphite in its composition. It displays distinct qualities encompassing strength, hardness, modulus of elasticity, shock absorption, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity. Particularly noteworthy is its exceptional performance in casting, cutting abilities, and its cost-effective casting process. Its primary utilization occurs predominantly within industries, where its durability and adaptable attributes find purpose. The …

Investigation of Seismic Pounding Effect on Symmetric 10 Storey Reinforced Concrete Buildings Using SAP2000
Abstract: ABSTRACT Earthquakes have historically been responsible for significant structural failures, often resulting in substantial economic losses and endangering human lives. One notable failure mechanism observed during seismic activity is seismic pounding, which occurs when adjacent buildings collide due to insufficient separation gaps. This phenomenon is particularly concerning in densely populated urban areas where space constraints often prevent the provision of adequate clearances between structures. Such impacts can lead to severe …

Seismic Behavior of Composite Steel-Concrete Beams in High-Risk Earthquake Zones: An Analytical and Experimental Approach
Abstract: Abstract This study investigates the seismic performance of composite steel-concrete beams in high-risk earthquake zones through a combination of analytical modeling and experimental testing. Composite beams, which combine the strengths of steel and concrete, are increasingly utilized in structural designs due to their superior load-bearing capacity and ductility. The research emphasizes the behavior of these beams under seismic loading, focusing on critical parameters such as energy dissipation, load transfer mechanisms, …

CASE STUDY ON WAI TO PRATAPGAD ROAD USING ALTERNATE ROUTE OF UNDERGROUND TUNNEL (WAI+JOR+PRATAPGAD)
Abstract: ABSTRACT: The project proposes constructing an underground tunnel from wai (jor) to pratapgad to address acute traffic congestion, regular road accidents, and long travel time on present mountainous roads. The present highway, with its steep curves and ascents, fails to support growing vehicular movement, resulting in traffic congestion and safety hazards, especially during peak tourist periods. The tunnel will provide a straight and unbroken journey, less reliant on the meandering …

ANALYTICAL STUDY OF SEISMIC RESPONSE OF DOUBLE TOWER BUILDING ON A COMMON PODIUM
Abstract: Abstract The recent surge in global population, particularly in urban areas, has led to a significant rise in the demand for tall buildings structures featuring multiple towers on a shared podium. Such complex configurations often result in intricate interactions between towers and podium structures, particularly under lateral loads induced by earthquakes. One of the critical structural behaviours observed in such systems is the backstay effect, which arises due to discontinuities …
