TO ENLARGE THE CONTRAVENTION POINT OF FLOATING COLUMN WITH SESMIC EXPLORATION

Nowadays in most of the commercial as well as residential buildings lowers floors contains banquet halls, showrooms, conference rooms, large parking space etc. The time history of floor dislodging, entomb story float, base shear, toppling minute are registered for both the casings with and without skimming section. The analysis is done on building models having different numbers of storey of RCC with simple and complex floor plan with floating columns. Finite element base software namely ETABS, Staad pro v8i are used for the analysis which can easily determine the parameter such as lateral forces, bending moment, shear force, axial force, storey shear, storey drift, base shear. All these amenities requires huge uninterrupted space unlike closely spaced columns on upper floors, hence the concept of floating column came into existence. This paper aims towards the review of studies carried out on Seismic Analysis of the building with Floating column by various authors in the past. FEM codes are created for 2D multi story outlines with and without skimming section to think about the reactions of the structure under various seismic tremor excitations having distinctive recurrence content keeping the PGA and time span factor consistent
