Effect of Planner Aspect Ratio on Vernacular Masonry Building under Earthquakes
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Research In Engineering & Management. - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 6
Abstract
The behavior of a building during earthquakes depends critically on its planner aspect ratio. This paper deals with an evaluation of the seismic performance of vernacular masonry buildings with different planner aspect ratio. Rubble stone mud mortar masonry building structures are taken as reference building for this work, which are available in the rural area of Nepal. Four different planner aspect ratio's buildings are selected for model with flexible floor diaphragm representing the scenario of the constructed or constructing buildings in rural areas of our country after 25 April 2015 Earthquake in Nepal. A static non-linear (Pushover) analysis was performed. Subsequently, the available capacity spectrums are obtained to the corresponding demand spectrum to demonstrate the pushover responses of the buildings
