Seismic Analysis of R.C. multistorey Building Frame with Bracings

The recent earthquakes have tendancy to damage the structures, in multistorey and high rise structure to prevent against vibration. We can provide Bracing at different locations. The main focus of this work is to analyze an R.C. building frame with X-TYPE R.C. bracing at different locations of a building to know its most effective location. Bracing is specially design structure column in corporate in building to resist lateral forces that are produced in plane due to wind blasting, earthquakes and other forces. In this work (G+2) storey , R.C. building frame has been analyzed for seismic zone-III by using STAAD-pro. V8i (series4), special moment resisting frames (SMRF) and medium soil type were used. The method used in this work is Equivalent Static Analysis method. There are various parameters were considered such as maximum shear force in Y –direction, maximum bending moment in Z-direction are taken to compare the result for different model. According to this analysis Model –ll is most effective one.
