Analysis of Building with and with out Shear Wall at Various Heights and Variation of Zone III and Zone V

It is well recognized that the incorporation of lateral load resisting systems in the form of shear walls, bracing systems etc. improve the structural performance of buildings subjected to lateral forces due to earthquake excitation. The seismic behavior of buildings is strongly affected by the arrangement of shear walls, the rigidity of floors and the connections of floors to the walls. The building with structural shear walls Improve the lateral load resistance. In the present project, an analytical parameter study is done for the structural shear walls with varying height for different models. The load combinations are consideration as per IS 1893 (Part-1):2002. The result in terms of axial forces, lateral displacement and bending moment in the structural shear walls with varying height are compared for different building models considered.As well as two reinforced concrete framed regular buildings with different zones locations of shear walls situated in seismic zone III and zone V have been analyzed in this study. Five-storied buildings were taken with shear-walls and without shear-walls. The design is above verified for this same structure using extended three dimensional analysis of buildings (STAAD Pro V8i) softwar
