Abstract

To model the complex behaviour of reinforced concrete analytically in its non-linear zone is difficult. This has led engineers in the past to rely heavily on empirical formulas which were derived from numerous experiments for the design of reinforced concrete structures. For structural design and assessment of reinforced concrete members, the non-linear analysis has become an important tool. The method can be used to study the behaviour of reinforced concrete framed structures including force redistribution. This analysis of the non-linear response of reinforced concrete structures to be carried out in a routine fashion. It helps in the investigation of the behaviour of the structure under different loading conditions, its load deflection behavior. In the present study, the non-linear response of RCC frame using SAP2000 under the loading has been carried out with the intention to investigate the relative importance of several factors in the non-linear analysis of RCC frames. This include the variation in load displacement graph. Seismic threat in the context of engineering design is commonly defined as the forecast level of ground acceleration which would be topped with 10% possibility at the site under contemplation due to the presence of an earthquake everywhere in the territory, in the next 50 years. A lot of composite scientific observation and stable modelling is difficult in seismic threat approximation. A computational pattern contains the following phases: explanation of seismic source areas and their characterisation, selection of a suitable ground motion reduction relation and a projecting model of seismic threat. Although these phases are region definite, assured standardisation of the methods is extremely important so that reasonably equivalent estimations of seismic threat can be made universal, which are dependable across the district limitations.
