Seismic Analysis of Multi-Storeyed Building with Underneath Satellite Bus Stop and Top Soft Storey with Different Types of Shear Wall

Normally masonry infill’s are considered as non-structural elements and also their stiffness contributions are generally ignored in practice. And also they affect both the structural and non-structural performance of the RC buildings during earthquake. RC frame building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during strong earthquake shaking. A similar soft storey effect can occur if first and top story used as service story. So that a combination of two structural system components i.e. The Rigid frames and RC shear walls leads to a highly efficient system in which shear wall resist the majority of the lateral loads and the frame supports majority of the gravity loads. To study the effect of masonry infill with different soft storey level, and also we were studying 10models of Reinforced Concrete framed building were analyzed with 7 types of shear wall when subjected to earthquake loading. The results of bare frame ,strut frame and other building models have been compared, it is observed that all models with L –type, swastika –type, plus(+)-type, I-type, C-type, U-type ,T-type shear wall with showing efficient performance and hence reducing the effect of soft storey in model 4, model 5 ,model 6,model 7,model 8,model 9 model 10.
