Dynamic Analysis of Multi-Storey Building for Minimization of Lateral Displacement due to Earthquake Using Shear Wall

Abstract

Shear wall are one of the most commonly used in Multi-Storey buildings for resisting the lateral load. In this paper, the multistorey building is modeled and analyzed by STAAD-Pro Software. Building with shear wall is analyzed using STAAD-Pro software and the comparison is done withmodelwithout shear wall. The main focus on the studies of seismic behavior of shear wall in multi-storey building and it will be discussed in detail. The calculation is done by using the IS Code IS 1893:2002, criteria for earthquake resistant design of structures part 1 general provisions and buildings. And the use of IS456:2000, and IS875:1987also have been done in this paper.  The results of Displacements and storey drift havebeen computed in both the cases with and without shear wall in STAAD-Pro by using Response Spectrum Method and areobserved as, buildings, employing shear walls at the exterior corners leads to an impressive 77.28% reduction in displacement, while placing them in the middle of the exterior wall achieves a slightly higher reduction of 77.63%. This emphasizes the effectiveness of shear walls in both configurations, with a marginal advantage for the latter.
