Seismic Analysis of Beam-Column Joints for Structure with Conventional & Pre-Tensioning Slab using ANSYS Tool

The behaviour of reinforced concrete moment resisting frame structures in recent earthquakes all over the world has highlighted the consequences of poor performance of beam column joints. Large amount of research carried out to understand the complex mechanisms and safe behaviour of beam column joints has gone into code recommendations. This Study presents critical review of recommendations of well-established codes regarding design and detailing aspects of beam column joints considering rigid diaphragm. In this study conventional slab and Pre-tensioning slab is considered and effect on beam column joint is studied using ANSYS software considering lateral force (P-delta) and Non-linear analysis. The main motive of our study is to determine the non linear analysis and its effect on joints of a G+8 High rise multistorey building #-dimensional frame considering P-delta analysis using ANSYS.
