Seismic Analysis of RCC and Steel Frame Structure By Using ETABS
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 2
Abstract
The residential housing sector (G+3,G+6 etc.) use of steel has increased, but RCC construction still predominates the Indian construction business.In the present study an attempt has been made to analyze the seismic behavior of RCC and steelframes using Etabs2015.The high self-weight and brittleness of concrete is not favorable to seismic prone structures whereas steel structures are 60% lesser in weight through they can withstand earthquake more effectively than the concrete structures.Aim of the study to compare the seismic performance of G+6 and G+9 frames for both steel and RCC. For current study all frames are analyzed under equivalent static method. In this comparative study it is concluded that steel frames are most effective than the concrete as it has the highest strength to weight ratio.
