Abstract: In India, every industry has its own importance to make the country shift towards its future goal. The construction industry plays a very significant role with the introduction of high-rise structures that has been increasing regularly. Beside this, the structure should be strong enough that each element should be economic and strong. The criteria of using optimum size approach for reduction of axial forces in column in multi storied building under seismic zone is a new idea. It reduces the size of beams and columns at the different levels of the building. On other hand, the structural weight should be minimized when the self-weight of the same will be reduced and proved to be an economic structure. In this project a G+13 Storey structure is analyzed using six different cases named as AFR Case A to AFR Case F assumed to be situated in seismic Zone III. The plinth area is in use as 625 m2 and all the cases have compared with each parameter. The project concluded that efficient Case is AFR Case C on comparing 6 maximum axial force reduction cases that ultimately reduce the overall cost of the project.

PurposePrefabricated housing has become a boom industry across the world; however, the uptake of offsite construction (OSC) approaches in Australian low-rise buildings is rather low compared with high-rise buildings in other countries. This study aims to investigate and analyse the adoption of different levels of OSC approaches and the selection of different procurement options in Australian low-rise residential buildings.Design/methodology/approachThe research objectives were pursued through a mixed research method. An empirical questionnaire survey was carried out with 35 professionals in the Australian building and construction industry. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 interviewees and analysed using thematic analysis method in NVivo software.FindingsThe research results found that the most suitable OSC level for Australian low-rise buildings is components-based prefabrication and identified the barriers to OSC uptake for each OSC level. The study also showed that the best option of procuring prefabricated products is from Australian manufacturers, followed by Australian suppliers/dealers and overseas manufacturers. Panelised prefabrication and components-based prefabrication are ranked as the most suitable OSC approaches for Australian manufacturers. Modular prefabrication is regarded as the most suitable for overseas manufacturer, while components-based prefabrication is the most suitable for Australian suppliers/dealers.Originality/valueThe selection of various OSC approaches and different procurement options in the low-rise residential buildings are scarcely explored topic, and thus, this study provides knowledge of interest for both researchers and practitioners.

High rise office building design is one of the essential buildings in construction industry due to the limited space especially in the urban area. After home, a high rise office building is an important space for human in modern era. Due to the issue of high energy consumption especially inefficient artificial light strategy, side-day lighting becomes the best solution for a high rise office building design. Despite providing efficient energy consumption, side-day lighting creates a positive impact to the worker as well as the office's indoor environment. Hence, this paper aims to explore the basic passive side-day lighting considerations that educate people especially for those who are involved in the building construction industry. Beside, this paper focuses on the passive design considerations due to the various advantages that not involved especially with complex electrical and mechanical system. A systematic literature review is the main methodology for this paper to identify the basic passive side-day lighting considerations for a high rise office building design. Base on this research, it revealed that eight elements for building design considerations should be applied to provide a better day lighting impact for a high rise office building design. Considerations for non-building design aspects should also need to be applied since those aspects contribute to produce a better day lighting impact for a high rise office building design.

Design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) is an important part of the future of the construction industry due to the promise of speed of project delivery, quality control, worker safety, and waste minimization onsite via the purposeful design for manufacture and assembly offsite. However, the adoption of DfMA in Australia has been slow. This paper investigates the barriers prohibiting widespread uptake and how digital construction will be a catalyst for improving use on commercial-scale projects. A total of six leading experts were interviewed to elicit their opinions, and seven recent case studies of high-rise modular apartment and hotel buildings constructed by Hickory were cross-referenced as evidence of DfMA capability. The experts suggested that the reasons for slow adoption in Australia were community mindset, government regulations and incentives, planning and building codes, unionization and business politics, finance, and supply chain management. The case studies suggest that compatible building type and transportation distance are also factors. These barriers can be addressed by the clever integration of building information modelling tools with lean construction processes as part of a proposed strategy leading to smarter (more productive) and better (more sustainable) outcomes predicated on growth in digital construction practices. The paper concludes with a proposed framework for change that conceptualizes the ‘ecosystem’ needed to support widespread DfMA in the Australian context, including the paradigm shift from building to manufacturing/assembly, the displacement of workers from onsite to offsite activity, and the expansion of interdisciplinary design and construct collaboration.

Nowadays, as in the urban areas the space available for the construction of buildings is limited. So in limited space we have to construct such type of buildings which can be used for multiple purposes such as lobbies, car parking etc. To fulfill this demand, high rise buildings is the only option available. The performance of a high rise building during strong earthquake motion depends on the distribution of stiffness, strength and mass along both the vertical and horizontal directions. If there is discontinuity in stiffness, strength and mass between adjoining storeys of a building then such a building is known as irregular building. The present study focuses on the seismic performance of regular and vertical irregular building with and without masonary infills. In the present study G+11 building is considered for the analysis with modelling and analysis done on ETABS software v17.0.1. The earthquake forces are calculated as per IS 1893 (part 1): 2016 for seismic zone III. The width of strut is calculated by using equivalent diagonal strut method. Total five models are considered for the analysis i.e. regular building with bare frame, regular building with masonary infill, soft storey building with open ground storey, mass irregular building with masonary infill and vertical geometric irregular building with masonary infill. The non-linear static analysis (pushover analysis) and linear dynamic analysis (response spectrum analysis) are performed for all the models and thereby compare their results. From analysis, the parameters like performance point, time period, maximum storey displacement, maximum storey drifts, storey shears and overturning moments are determined and also comparative study is done for all the models. From the comparison, it is observed that the vertical geometric irregular building shows better performance under seismic loading and bare frame building shows inferior performance. Moreover, the performance of masonary infilled frame building is f

The design of skyscrapers involves lot of aspects such as the building must withstand heavy dead loads, should have safety measures against fire, floors must be easily accessible, and should have resistant against wind and seismic loads that can be detrimental to the safety of the skyscraper. Pile foundations are usually adopted for high rise buildings and when it is combined with raft slab they ensure that the problems of differential settlement are taken care of. In this paper the scenario of designing a skyscraper in seismic zone that is prone to earthquakes and the ground condition is such that it is located in vicinity of sea. Andaman and Nicobar isle is one similar place it falls under Zone V as per Indian Standards, hence prone to seismic activity and since it is surrounded by Bay of Bengal and Andaman sea, when seismic activity occurs there is a high chance of soil liquefaction to occur hence proper structural designs should be embraced.

Abstract: This study examines the composite structure that is increasing commonly in developing countries. For medium-rise to high-rise building construction, RCC structures is no longer economical due to heavy dead weight, limited span, low natural frequency and hazardous formwork. The majority of commercial buildings are designed and constructed with reinforced concrete, which largely depends on the existence of the constituent materials as well as the quality of the necessary construction skills, and including the usefulness of design standards. Conventional RCC structure is not preferred nowadays for high rise structure. However, composite construction, is a recent development in the construction industry. Concrete-steel composite structures are now very popular due to some outstanding advantages over conventional concrete and steel structures. In the present work, RCC and steel-concrete composite structure are being considered for a Dynamic analysis of a G+25-storey commercial building of uniform and optimized section, located at in seismic zone IV. Response Spectrum analysis method is used to analyze RCC and composite structure, CSI ETABS v19 software is used and various results are compared such as time period, maximum storey displacement, maximum storey stiffness. Maximum storey shear and maximum stoey overturning moment.
