Abstract

Currently Seismic impacts getting very serious concern when designing multi-storied reinforced concrete structures. Seismic tremors have occurred in numerous parts of the globe. High-rise structures should have proper stiffness to resist lateral loads caused by Earthquakes and Winds. Consequently, Engineers are extremely concerned about finding suitable solution that will allow structures to survive without major damage. Shear walls are structural members which are designed to carry earthquake loads and opposes lateral loads significantly. They are good choice to increase stiffness of high-rise structures. This paper aims to use shear walls in various location of a G+13 multi-storied residential building and to determine the best shear wall placement in high slender building by analyzing storey displacement, storey drift, base shear and fundamental time period in various seismic zones according to IS 1893:2016. Three models are prepared and compared under different seismic zones. Shear walls at core of building, shear walls at four corners of building and the combination of both. Our study's goal is to test a structure's ability to bear lateral load applied to it according to Code and also when it exceeds the limit of allowable deformation. The prepared model for this experimentation is considered to be located on medium soil and wind velocity is high like 148mph. The experiment concluded that, building with shear wall combination of both core and corner will show better result to resist lateral forces though the combination isn’t enough to help withstanding the high slender structure against very powerful earthquake attack like Zone-v.
