COMPARISON OF SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF BUILDING RESTING ON PLAIN GROUND WITH AND WITHOUT SHEAR WALL

The work presented here is a study of seismic response of buildings resting on plane ground. This thesis investigates the seismic performance of building situated on plain surfaces, focusing on the effectiveness of incorporating shear walls to mitigate structural vulnerabilies. A review of studies on the seismic behavior of buildings resting on plane ground has been presented through a comparative analysis, exploring the impact of shear wall on the structure. The study explores how shear wall influence the dynamic response and stability of buildings and resilience of structures in the absence and present of shear wall on plane surfaces during seismic events. The research aims to provide deeper knowledge of the role of shear wall in enhancing structural performance, by evaluating factors such as lateral displacement, base shear, storey drift, storey displacement, the research aims to provide valuable insights that can inform design practices for building in region characterized by plain ground. The shear wall are installed around the building’s perimeter. Using STADD.ProV8i, the frame models are examined following IS 1893: 2000 using the Response spectrum method for G+5 RCC building in zone V. And when compared studies agree that the buildings resting on plain ground without shear wall has higher displacement and lower base shear compared to buildings resting on plain ground with shear wall.
