Abstract |
Consideration of site specific lateral loading due to wind or earthquake loads along with vertical gravity loads is important for finding the behavior of the tall buildings. As the height of a building becomes taller, the amount of structural material required to resist lateral loads increases drastically. The design of tall buildings essentially involves a conceptual design, approximate analysis, preliminary design and optimization, to safely carry gravity and lateral loads. The design criteria are strength, serviceability and human comfort. The aim of the structural engineer is to arrive at suitable structural schemes, to satisfy these criteria. Safety of the structure is checked against allowable limits prescribed for base shear, roof displacements, inter-storey drifts, and accelerations prescribed in codes of practice and other relevant references in literature on effects of earthquake and wind loads on buildings. The present study mainly focuses on computation of percentage of steel in different seismic zones with combined lateral forces. The current Is code for seismic design i.e. IS 1893-2002 part 1 suggests that maximum reinforcement should be provided for higher seismic zones. In following work attempt is made to find the requirement of percentage of steel in different seismic zones and wind zones by using ETABS-2013(structural analysis software tool. |
