Abstract: In India, about 50-60% of the total area is vulnerable to the seismic activity. Earthquakes are the vibrations or the motion of the ground due to release of energy. The vibrations or ground motion are the important factors to analyze and design, the earthquake resistant structure. So, to reduce the impact of earthquake different efforts has been done in this field. Basically, earthquake exerts lateral as well as vertical forces so to dissipate those forces and the vibration in system earthquake resistant structure has been design. The design of earthquake resistant structures depends on providing stiffness, strength and inelastic deformation which withstand the earthquake forces. As the height of the structure increases the lateral loads acted on the structure increases and decrease in the stiffness, so to counteract those shear walls and different damping devices has been used.

Considering the increase in the current construction process and the future needs of Iran, the necessity to use high-rise buildings for reduction in urbanization costs and optimal use of land will be inevitable in the future. The performance of steel plate shear wall system as a modern global system, which has an effective application in high-rise buildings and also brings economic benefits compared to previous systems, is evaluated in this study. Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSW) are a new type of system resistant to wind and earthquake lateral loads, which dates back to the 1970s. In this research, eight samples of shear wall with various stiffening arrangements and sections with ST37 and ST52 alloys are modeled. To evaluate the nonlinear dynamic analysis, the samples are subjected to the San Fernando earthquake force and are modeled and analyzed by ABAQUS software based on the finite element theory. The results of analyzing the samples indicate better performance of the system with stiffener in both vertical and horizontal directions. Also, the use of sections with ST52 alloy has improved the performance of the shear wall by approximately 40%.

Indonesia is one of the countries in the earthquake region. Therefore, it is necessary to build earthquake-resistant buildings to reduce the risk of material and life losses. Reinforced Concrete (RC) shear walls is one of effective structure element to resist earthquake forces. Applying RC shear wall can effectively reduce the displacement and story-drift of the structure. This research aims to study the effect of shear wall location in symmetric medium-rise building due to seismic loading. The symmetric medium rise-building is analyzed for earthquake force by considering two types of structural system. i.e. Frame system and Dual system. First model is open frame structural system and other three models are dual type structural system. The frame with shear walls at core and centrally placed at exterior frames showed significant reduction more than 80% lateral displacement at the top of structure.

Abstract: Structural analysis is the science of determining the effects of different loads on structures. Structural stability and stiffness are a main concern in any high-rise structures. Shear walls are structural members that are mainly responsible for resisting lateral loads predominant on structures. They are mainly responsible to increase the stiffness, reduce story drift and displacement. In order to have a comprehensive understanding about the contribution of shear wall, following research is carried out. This research involves comparing two G+16 structures; one without a shear wall and one with it. The structure has 4 bays of 3m each along X direction and Z direction. In this, we will see how shear wall resists lateral sway and reduces story drift and increases stiffness. As the height increases, the shear wall absorbs more lateral load than the frame. The software to be used for analysis is STAADPro. Keywords: STAADPro, Stiffness, storey displacement, storey drift.

The shear wall built with precast two-way hollow slab is an innovated precast concrete shear wall suitable for housing industrialization. Two shear walls built with precast two-way hollow slabs were tested pseudo-statically under low cyclic lateral loads to acquire their failure process and modes. The effect of the axial compression load was investigated. The study proved that vertical cracks along the vertical holes of the new type shear wall have been appeared to avoid brittle shear failure, and the shear wall developed integral section wall to walls-columns combination. As the results, the shear walls have the adequate deformability. The test results showed that with the increase of axial compressive ratio, crack development has been limited and the energy dissipation capacity has been improved. It also can be found that with the increase of the axial compressive load, shear capacity of the new type shear walls have been improved.

Abstract: The requirement of tall building in recent years increase the construction to satisfy the need of human beings. Very tall buildings located in high velocity wind area are highly sensitive therefore calculation and analysis of wind load is very impotent. Due to change in climatic condition the basic wind speed are increases. The main aim of this paper is to introducing the different techniques which is used to reduce the effect of wind load or lateral loads. Keywords: wind analysis, comparative analysis, TMD (tuned mass damper),friction damper, shear wall


Earthquake is an unexpected and expensive disaster for both livelihood and economy. In the modern day construction, there has been a lot of importance to make the structure resistant against lateral loads for multi storied building. Shear walls are an option of lateral load resisting system. The Concept of designing shear wall is to provide building structure with sufficient strength and deformation capacity to sustain the demands imposed by lateral loads with adequate margin of safety. The study focuses on effect of shear wall on R.C. building at different heights. For this purpose five models of different heights 15m, 30m, 45m, 60m and 75m and with different aspect ratios of 1.33, 0.66, 0.44, 0.33 and 0.26 respectively have been considered. All the models were designed for seismic zone V. For analysis purpose response spectrum method of analysis is considered as per IS: 1893-2002. The comparative study has been done for base shear, storey displacement, storey drift and storey stiffness. Utilization of shear walls when placed at corners of the building of low aspect ratio in high rise buildings is more effective compared to the low rise buildings of higher aspect ratio, as it gives the larger base shear and lesser displacement. The storey stiffness and storey drift is greatly improved when shear wall is placed at corners of the building


Shear walls are a structural system which gives solidness or stability to structures from lateral loads like wind, seismic loads. The structural systems are fabricated by reinforced concrete, plywood/timber unreinforced, reinforced masonry at which these systems are subdivided into coupled shear walls, shear wall frames, shear panels and staggered walls. The present paper work was made in the interest of studying and analysis of various research works involved in enhancement of shear walls and their behaviour towards lateral loads. In SAP2000 analysis we found that when we apply lateral force between the stories the amount of compression and tension force between the stories obtained is equal to the manual analysis .In STAAD.PRO, we analyzed the light frame shear wall for seismic analysis. The estimated results for light frame shear wall with one storey, shear wall with two storey and shear wall with three storey shown similar to the results which are obtained by using FEM software like STAAD and SAP2000.

Multi-storey buildings tend to get damaged mainly during earthquake. Seismic analysis is a tool for the estimation of structural response in the process of designing earthquake resistant structures and/or retrofitting vulnerable existing structures. The principle purpose of this work is to analyze and design a building with a shear wall and also to find the appropriate position of shear wall that result in maximum resistance towards lateral forces and minimum displacement of the structure. In this study, a G+7 multi-storey building of 15 m ×20 m in plan area has been chosen and modelled using ETABS. The developed model was validated by solving manually and the results were validated in ETABS. Thereafter, 4 different new plans were modelled in ETABS located in the same earthquake zone area. These plans have shear wall concepts are implemented on the building at four different locations. Seismic, vibration and response spectrum analysis were performed on these structures. Salient parameters such as storey stiffness, storey displacement and storey drift were computed using the ETABS model. These were compared with that of the frame having no shear walls. By comparing the results obtained at different shear wall locations, the best plan with the shear wall having minimum lateral storey displacement and maximum stiffness is suggested for this location.

In present era, there is a huge scarcity of vacant land led to the development of the high rise structures. For the construction of high rise buildings, normal R.C.C. system is not suitable. These problems can overcome by using flat slab system along with shear wall arrangements. It is very essential that the shear wall position should be appropriate in structure so as to achieve the lateral stiffness and solid structure against lateral loads. In this work, two main factors i.e. with drop panels and without drop panels have been considered for 12 storey structures. In each factor 5 models of various locations of shear wall is taken for consideration. For stabilization of variable parameters such as storey displacement, storey stiffness and storey shear etc the seismic investigation & design of structures had carried out in software ETABS. After performing seismic investigation & design of all the structures, result shows that if we provide shear wall at incorrect or inappropriate locations then it will only increase the dead load and cost of the structure. So the final outcomes we have achieved is to provide shear walls at desired position where lateral loads are more predominantly acting on the structures

One of the types of earthquake-resistant systems is the concrete shear wall system, which has attracted the attention of engineers due to its good performance in past earthquakes. But some architectural constraints force engineers to install openings in shear walls; thus, this will affect the behavior of the shear wall. Many researchers have conducted experimental and finite element studies for assessing the effects of openings in reinforced concrete shear walls. However, there is a lack of comprehensive comparisons between different studies. This paper reviews some most recent experimental and finite element studies available in the literature and presents a review of the main contributions. This literature review reveals that the seismic responses and the stiffness of structures are influenced by the size and location of the openings in the reinforced shear wall.
