Optimum Structural Configuration of Multi-Storey Building by Changing Shear Wall Location
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0
Abstract
A shear wall is a structural element used to resist horizontal forces parallel to the plane of the wall. Shear wall has highly in plane stiffness and strength which can be used simultaneously resisted large horizontal loads and support gravity loads. It is very necessary to determine effective, efficient and ideal location of shear wall. Shear wall are specially designed structure walls include in the building to resist horizontal forces that are includes in the plane of the wall due to wind, EQ and other forces. They are mainly a flexural member and usually provided in the high rise building to avoid the total collapse of the high rise building under seismic forces. In this research G+9 storey building is presented with some investigation which is analyzed by changing various location of shear wall for determining the optimum structural configuration of multistory building by changing shear wall location radially by analyzed and designed as a space frame system by computer aided software, subjected to lateral and gravity loading in accordance with IS provisions.
