scholarly journals Non-Linear Performance of Strong Column Weak Beam RC Frame Building

Buildings are designed in different methods for resisting the lateral loads, in which strong column weak beam concept is one of the methods of designing, this method is used to avoiding the global failure of the structure In this work 3bay 5 story RC frame building is consider for the analysis, the structures are design strong column weak beam with the help of static non-linear pushover analysis of RC frame building with increasing the percentage of column sizes 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%. By varying with percentage of columns resistances of structure is increased. The parameters base shear, story displacement, and hinge formations in the structure is obtained from this analysis. The base shear and displacement are increased by increasing the column sizes, these parameters are discussed the results in detail. Comparing the all six model results the base shear in increased by 266.64% when the column size is increased by 100%. From this analysis we can reduce the failure in the structure during the earthquake. Formation of plastic hinges in column changes to beam by increasing the column size, so increase the capacity of structure. The building is analyzed by using SAP2000.

This study investigates the direct displacement based design (DDBD) and convectional force based design (FBD) approach for 8 storey RC frame building in DDBD methodology the displacement profile is calculated and the given MDOF is converted to equivalent single degree of freedom system. After calculating the effective period, secant stiffness, and viscous damping of the equivalent structure, the base shear is obtained, based on which the design and detailing process can be carried out. The designed frames as per DDBD and FBD approach are then analyzed using nonlinear pushover analysis to obtain the capacity curves and response reduction factor. Results of the analysis and comparison of ‘R’ factor indicate the efficiency of the DDBD approach for RC frame buildings

In this study, four geometrically similar frames having different configurations of masonry infills, has been investigated. In this article attempts are made to explain the factors that impact the soft storey failure in a building are compared with different type of infill. That is Four models like RC bare frame, RC frame with brick mansonry infill, RC frame with brick infill in all the storeys exept the firstsoft storey, RC frame with inverted V bracing in the soft storey. Time history analysis has been carried out for a G+8 multistoried building to study the soft storey effect at different floor levels using E tabs software. The behavior of RC framed building with soft storey under seismic loading has been observed in terms of maximum displacement ,maximum storey drift, base shear and storey stiffness as considered structure.


During past earthquakes column plastic hinges are more important than beam hinges which gives rise to global structural damage and high life threatening risk. All the structural components transfers their forces through column and then column shares it with foundation to soil, so u can imagine if column fails whole structure can collapse this is strong beam weak column concept. In this paper collapse mechanism of three buildings 5, 12 and 15 storey heights are investigated for strong column weak beam concept. The structure is designed for zone 5 and medium soil. The aim of this work is to determine the static non-linear performance of three buildings of varying heights, each storey height is 3m and each bay width is 5m, the width of the building in X and Y direction is 20m. The heights of the buildings are 15m, 36m and 45m. The parameters which are obtained from the analysis are base shear, displacement and hinge formations in the structure. The base shear and displacement of the structures increases with an increase in strong column weak beam concepts. The hinge formations in the low-rise building involved beam failures where as the hinge formation in mid-rise buildings involves mixed failure pattern involving beams and columns.

ABSTRAKKondisi geografis Indonesia memiliki struktur tektonik kompleks. Kondisi ini membuat perencanaan rumah tinggal 2 (dua) lantai membutuhkan pertimbangan khusus dari segi kekuatan dan kekakuan. Penggunaan material kayu sebagai bahan konstruksi di Indonesia masih jarang digunakan. Kayu glulam adalah suatu produk kayu rekayasa yang dibuat dari beberapa bilah kayu yang direkatkan dengan arah sejajar serat menggunakan perekat berupa lem. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi respon struktur pada rumah tinggal menggunakan material kayu glulam dan solid dengan bantuan program ETABS 2016. Berdasarkan analisis yang telah dilakukan, diperoleh nilai periode struktur, gaya geser dasar, dan simpangan antar lantai antara seluruh model menunjukan hasil yang berbeda, perbedaan diakibatkan dari hasil konversi berat jenis dan modulus of elastisity berdasarkan BS EN 1194:1999. Berdasarkan analisis non-linier pushover didapatkan bahwa kayu glulam Nyatoh (kayu kelas III) berada pada level pada kinerja B to IO (Immediate Occupancy), dimana hasil tersebut tidak berbeda jauh dengan kayu solid Bangkirai (kayu kelas I).Kata Kunci: rumah tinggal, kayu glulam, non-linier pushover ABSTRACTGeographical condition of Indonesia has a complex tectonic structure.

This study presents an investigation on the design of long reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to uniform temperature load by considering three RC frame building models with different lengths of 45 m, 135 m, and 270 m using Etabs. The uniform temperature load is considered being the change from the annual average highest to lowest air temperature at the construction site in the case of unavailable temperature data of concrete. The analysis results indicate that the uniform temperature load mainly influences on the internal forces of RC members at storey 1 and slightly effects on the internal forces of RC members at storey 2. For short-length RC structures, the effect of temperature load can be ignored in the design of RC elements, whereas it must be taken into account in design of slab, beams and some column positions at storey 1 of medium-length and long RC structures without expansion joints. For the present RC frame building models, the required slab reinforcement in long direction increases about 33.4% for medium-length RC structures (135 m) and about 48.2% for long RC structures (270 m) without expansion joints. The required reinforcement for positive moment at mid-span increases from 33.7 to 39.4%, whereas the total required reinforcement for negative moment at the supports of beams increases from 19.4 to 34.9% in long direction of 270 m long RC structures without expansion joints due to uniform temperature load. Column design of long RC structures without expansion joints under uniform temperature load must be concerned, especially for columns in the corners.

Based on a ductile frames 15 level building, a non-linear analysis with increased monotonically lateral loads (Push-Over) was made in order to determine its collapse and its principal responses were compared against the elastic and inelastic time-history seismic responses determined with the SCT-EW-85 record. The seismic-resistance design and faced to gravitational loads was made according to the Complementary Technical Norms of Concrete Structures Design (NTC-Concrete) and the NTC-Seismic of the Mexico City Code (RDF-04), satisfying the limit service states (relative lateral displacement between story height maximum relations, story drifts ≤ 0.012) and failure (seismic behavior factor, Q= 3). The compressible (soft) seismic zone IIIb and the office use type (group B) were considered. The non-linear responses were determined with nominal and over-resistance effects. The comparison were made with base shear force–roof lateral displacement relations, global distribution of plastic hinges, failure mechanics tendency, lateral displacements and story drift and its distribution along the height of the building, local and global ductility demands, etc. For the non-linear static analysis with increased monotonically lateral loads, it was important to select the type of lateral forces distribution.

Pushover analysis is an elegant tool to visualise the performance level of a building under a given earthquake. The purpose of the paper is to summarize the Non Linear static Pushover analysis of medium rise RC bare frame and high rise RC infilled structure with soft stories at different levels using ETABS software. Results concluded that due to the introduction of soft stories in the higher level the intensity of hinge formation becomes lower and lower and at the same time displacement and base shear increases

Abstract The seismic evaluation of existing structures is based on the determination of the damage likely to occur during the lifetime of these structures due to earthquake ground motion excitation. However, there is not a consensus about the acceptable level of seismic damage, the expected lifetime of these structures, and the seismic hazard level(s) to evaluate the structures at. This paper presents a methodology for the parametric determination of the seismic collapse risk of an existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) frame building based on its seismic code compliance, quantified by a dimensionless metric. This metric, defined as compliance factor, compares the seismic capacity of an existing structure with the seismic demand for a new structure at a predetermined hazard level. The inelastic seismic behavior of four models of the RC frame building of varying compliance was analytically investigated in this study to demonstrate the implementation of the novel methodology. The four models of the RC building were chosen to represent existing RC frame structures, designed and constructed before the introduction of the modern seismic code provisions. These four building models were excited by a group of earthquake ground motion excitations using Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA). The collapse probability of the four models of the RC building representing varying values of seismic code compliance was determined for two different locations corresponding to regions of moderate and high seismic hazard, thus laying the basis for the compliance-based estimation of the seismic collapse risk of existing structures.
