Performance Based Study on R.C Framed Structure by Considering Stiffness of Slab Subjected To Seismic Load

Till recent times to predict the exact capacity of the R.C structure with considering stiffness of slab, need to depend on non-linear static analysis .To Model the Complex behavior 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 structures including force redistribution This analysis of the nonlinear response of R.C Structures to be carried out in routine fashion, it helps in the investigation behavior and the cracks pattern. R.C Structure with considering stiffness of slab Skeleton framing system, composed of only reinforced concrete columns, beams and slabs, have been adopted in analysis for many framed buildings. Generally, flexural stiffness of slabs is ignored and the floor load is transferred as uniformly distributed load on to the supporting beams in the conventional analysis of bare frame structures.
