Performance Based Evaluation of Shear Walled RCC Building by Pushover Analysis

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

 As the world move towards the implementation of Performance Based Engineering philosophies in seismic design of Civil Engineering structures, new seismic design provisions require Structural Engineers to perform both linear and nonlinear analysis for the design of structures. In the present work three storey and six storey building models with plus shape Shear wall have been considered. Equivalent static and response spectrum methods are carried out as perIS:1893 (Part 1) -2002 using finite element analysis software ETABS v9.1.1. Seismic performance is assessed by pushover analysis as per ATC-40 guidelines for earthquake zone V in India. The paper also deals with the effect of the variation of the building height on the structural response of the shear wall. This paper highlights the accuracy of Push over analysis in comparison with the most commonly adopted Response Spectrum Analysis and Equivalent Static Analysis.
