Seismic Behaviour of R.C Frame Building with and without Masonary Infill Walls

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0

Abstract

Reinforced concrete frame structure is very common in present times due to its ease in construction. Frame consists of vertical and horizontal elements. Vertical elements columns and horizontal elements are beams and slabs. These are the structural elements. These are designed to take the load and transfer it. Load taken by these elements are in the form of dead load, live load and lateral load. Other than these structural elements there are also non-structural elements like masonry walls also called infill walls. Infill walls are mostly used for the purpose of partitioning and to cover/separate the outer periphery of the frames/buildings. Design of R.C. frame with infill walls is practiced as 1) Infill walls are separated from frame 2) Infill walls are built integrally but considered as non-structural elements 3) Infill walls are built integrally and considered as structural element. This study is based on analysis of R.C. buildings with masonry infill walls which incorporates geometric nonlinearity in the analysis. The study will be performed on structural software ETABS.
