Comparative Analysis of RCC Framed and Diagrid Structures for High-Rise Buildings for Varying Height From G+10 To G+50 Storeys

This research presents a comparative analysis of Reinforced Concrete (RCC) framed structures and RCC diagrid structures for high-rise buildings ranging from G+10 to G+50 storeys. Using ETABS software, the study evaluates structural performance under gravity, wind, and seismic loads in seismic zone V. Key parameters assessed include base reaction, storey displacement, storey drift, storey shear, stiffness, lateral loading, and overturning moment. Results indicate that diagrid structures exhibit superior lateral stiffness, reduced displacement (up to 45% lower), and better resistance to seismic forces compared to traditional framed structures. However, the efficiency of diagrids diminishes with increasing height, suggesting optimal use for mid-rise buildings. The findings highlight the potential of diagrid systems for enhanced structural efficiency and sustainability in high-rise construction.
