Performance assessment of G+8 story buildings

Due to a shortage of land and an increasing population the multi-story structures are built to accommodate many people in the limited areas. People moved from rural to urban areas as a result of the industrial revolution and population increase necessitating the development of multi-story structures for both residential and commercial purposes. A variety of factors including the building's intrinsic frequency damping factor type of base importance and ductility are taken into account when designing structures that can sustain earthquake pressures. Developing earthquake-resistant structures requires an understanding of seismic analysis to guarantee safety against the seismic pressures of multi-story buildings. The current study examined the percentage of longitudinal steel reinforcing details and design base shear of a G+8-story reinforced concrete (RC) structure in three distinct seismic zones. Seismic zones III IV and V were assessed for the structure using IS 1893 (Part 1): 2016 norms. According to the results base shear increased as the seismic zone changed from III to V.
