Evaluation of Lateral Load Resisting Systems in High-Rise Buildings
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 06
Abstract
The rapid urbanization and the scarcity of residential space in metropolitan areas necessitate the construction of tall structures to meet the growing accommodation demands. This research paper focuses mainly on the structural act of high-rise structures under lateral loads, especially earthquake forces. Three lateral load resisting systems, namely outrigger system, shear wall at core and shear wall at corner are compared and analysed. The study reviews relevant literature, discussing parameters affecting the fundamental time period of structural models and the effectiveness of distributed belt wall systems. The research methodology involves the analysis of a 40-storey regular office building using three different lateral load resisting systems. The results obtained through response spectrum analysis, shows that the outrigger system exhibits efficient structural capability in tall buildings. The maximum lateral displacement is significantly reduced in the outrigger system compared to core shear-wall and corner-shear wall. The study concludes that enhancing lateral load resistance and providing a transition path to perimeter columns subjected to lateral load, as seen in the outrigger-system, proves effective in mitigating the impact of earthquake loads on high-rise buildings.
