With 3-story and 6-story RC buildings of ductile frames, previously designed, non-linear static analysis with increased monotonically lateral loads (Push-over) are made in order to determine its collapse and their responses against the inelastic seismic analysis results with the SCT-EW-85 record are compared. It is designed with the Principal Body and with the Appendix A conditions of the Seismic Technical Norms of the Mexico City Code (RDF-04), satisfying the maximum story distortion limits of the service and collapse conditions; the buildings (offices) are in the IIIb compressible seismic zone. The non-lineal responses were determined with nominal resistance and over-resistance effects. For the non-linear static analysis with increased monotonically lateral loads, was important to select the type of lateral forces distribution. The comparison were made with base shear force–roof lateral displacement relations.

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.

Diagrid structures are evolved as one of the best structural system for high rise buildings. In this study seismic performance of 36 stories Tube-in-Tube Diagrid Structure with various diagonal slopes is evaluated by Non Linear Static Analysis. Tube-in-Tube diagrid structures are modified Diagrid structures in which gravity core is replaced with Diagrid core. Single tube diagrid structure is also studied for comparison. The structure is pushed gradually proportional to fundamental Mode shape. The analysis results shows that Tube-in-Tube structure possess higher stiffness and Lateral Load resisting capacity. The pushover analysis demonstrates that diagrid core can perform better by hardening the structure. According to analysis results, the Tube-in-Tube diagrid structure shows higher non-linear lateral displacement. It was observed that as the diagrid angle increases the stiffness and lateral load carrying strength decreases.

Abstract: Due to sloping land and high seismically active zones, designing and construction of multistory buildings in hilly regions is always a challenge for structural engineers. This review paper focuses to establish a review study on the Possible Types of building frame configuration in the hilly region and he behavior of Such building frames under seismic loading conditions, and (3) The recent research and developments to make such frames less vulnerable to earthquakes. This paper concludes that the dynamics characteristics of such buildings are significantly different in both horizontal and vertical directions, resulting in the center of mass and center of stiffness having eccentricity at point of action and not vertically aligned for different floors. When such frames are subjected to lateral loads, due to eccentricity it generates torsion in the frame. Most of the studies agree that the buildings resting on slanting ground have higher displacement and base shear compared to buildings resting on plain ground and the shorter column attracts more forces and undergoes damage when subjected to earthquake. Keywords: Building frame configuration, Seismic behavior, Dynamic characteristics, Response spectrum analysis, time history analysis.
