Comparison of Seismic Behavior of Shear Wall Frame and Braced Concrete Frames

Mr Jaswant Singh, Mr Madnesh Kumar Dubey

Abstract


Shear walls are a type of structural system that provides lateral resistance to a building or structure. Now a days earthquakes are common. Due to earthquake horizontal forces comes on structures.so shear wall is compulsory requirement for every high rise buildings and there is a need to study and analyse the structural system for R.C.C. framed structures. The most important aspect of high rise building is Safety and damage should be minimized in case of severe earthquake. To withstand this high seismic load, structure must have adequate lateral strength, stiffness and sufficient ductility. There are many structural system which designer can choose like shear wall frame or braced concrete frame. In present study response of these structural system under seismic load have been conducted. Dynamic behavior of these structural system have been studied and compared. Axial forces, displacement and moments are compared in both cases.
