Finite element analysis using Staad-Pro for irregular L-shape Building by Time History Analysis
Abstract: To perform well in an earthquake, a building should possess four main attributes, namelysimple and regular configuration, and adequate lateral strength, stiffness and ductility.Buildings having simple regular geometry and uniformly distributed mass and stiffness inplanes well as in elevation, suffer much less damage than buildings with irregularconfigurations. Impairment can be in the form of loss of non-structural element, damage tostructural components, and collapse of structural element leading to progressive failure …

Finite Element Modeling of RC Beam Column Sub-assemblages Subjected to Column Loss Scenario
Abstract: Progressive collapse is a situation where a failure of whole or large part of a structure occurs that has been initiated by failure of a relatively small part of the structure such as failure of any primary structural element. When a vertical load carrying element, typically a column is lost, the loads that are supposed to pass through lost column need to be safely transferred to the adjacent elements to …

Structural Engineering: Areas and Applications
Abstract: The area of engineering known as structural engineering is concerned with the strength and structuralintegrity of a building or other structure. Civil engineering’s specialization of structural engineeringmakes ensuring that buildings are secure, stable, and resistant to collapse under applied loads. Itprimarily focuses on the structure’s analysis and design Along with other experts like surveyors,quantity surveyors, and architectural engineers, a structural engineer also contributes significantly tothe team. Applied physical rules and …

MODAL ANALYSIS OF CONVENTIONAL RCC STRUCTURE WITH STEEL BRACING
Abstract: It is a well-known fact that high rise reinforced structures are vulnerable to lateral loadings from things like earthquake and wind stresses. Bracing systems have the excellent benefit of adding just a tiny amount of bulk to the structure while significantly enhancing its performance. Building modelling is done both with and without a bracing system in this study. Analysis that is both linear and dynamic is being done. The structure …

BY USING ETABS ANALYSIS OF LATERAL RESISTANCE SYSTEM TO REDUCING THE DISPLACEMENT IN MULTISTOREY BUILDING
Abstract: It is usually a good idea to build a huge building to make better use of the land Recycled concrete is predominantly employed in both workplaces and homes. However, tall structures are susceptible to collapse, especially when subjected to seismic activities and wind vibrations. The structure is subjected to high tension and displacement of lateral forces and can withstand vertical forces with adequate stiffness for horizontal forces. The stability of …

Advantages of Use of Base Isolator and Fluid Viscous Dampers
Abstract: Several disastrous earthquakes have struck the world in recent decades, resulting in increasing humandeaths due to building collapse and significant structural damage The damages due to seismic actionshave made us realise that structures (residential, industrial, bridges etc) must be designed andconstructed to be resistant to earthquake. The building which are not designed properly will be proneto major damage. The prime option to withstand these building during severe earthquakes is seismicimprovement. …

EROSION OF UNDERLYING SOIL
Abstract: Abstract : To protect underlying soil erosion on which foundation base is provided like apron provided in water retaining structure like dam, weir etc. In flood zone area this apron is provided at foundation base of building, near village which is situated near bank of river underlying soil erosion will be prevented when apron is provided. Near bank of river (village situated) for protection of village near bank of river …

Individual and Combined Effects of Lead Rubber Bearing and Fluid Viscous Damper Techniques on Seismic Response of Irregular Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Abstract: Most old structures that do not meet current seismic regulations may sustain significant damage or perhaps collapse as a result of an earthquake. The seismic enhancement could potentially help people survive a major earthquake. Since earthquake engineering began, not only in India but also in other nations, earthquake-resistant construction of reinforced concrete buildings has been a constant topic of research. Buildings are still being damaged as a result of earthquakes. …

Cost Impact of Structural Irregularities
Abstract: Since absolute regularity is an idealisation that seldom exists, building structures are typically irregular. Building irregularities are unavoidable because of the many practical and aesthetic benefits. The performance of buildings subjected to earthquake pressures has revealed that asymmetric and irregular constructions produce more severe damage than regular structures, and the collapse of these structures may be blamed for the majority of human fatalities. Vertical mass inconsistency is commonly due to …

Seismic Behavior of Soft Storey Building with Static and Dynamic Earthquake Loading
Abstract: Soft first storey is a typical feature in the modern multi-storey constructions in urban India. Though multi-storied buildings with soft storey floor are inherently vulnerable to collapse due to earthquake, their construction is still widespread in the developing like India. Functional and Social need to provide car parking space at ground level and for offices open stories at different level of structure far out-weighs the warning against such buildings from …
