Seismic Response of High Rise Building with Ground Soft Storey
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
Earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves that are so weak that they cannot be felt to those violent enough to toss people around and destroy whole cities. After 26th January 2001, Gujarat Earthquake and other earthquakes in India, there is a nation-wide attention to the seismic vulnerability assessment of existing buildings. The buildings with soft storey are very susceptible under earthquake load which create disasters. Due to uses of vehicles and their movements at ground levels infill walls are generally avoided in parking plot, which creates soft storey effect. For proper assessment of the storey stiffness of buildings with soft storey, different models were analyzed using software.
