Comparison Between Different Seismic Zone to Analyze Seismic Performance of Irregular Shaped Multi-storeyed R.C.C. Buildings by Using BNBC 1993

Abstract

The most destructive and unpredictable natural event is the earthquake that causes tremendous damage of both human lives and structures. Seismic stresses triggered by earthquakes lead to significant damage to structural parts and often to structural collapse. Analysis and construction of the buildings taking into account the influence of lateral forces is also a very significant feature. Buildings in Bangladesh are BNBC-designed. This section examines a structure designed to evaluate its performance for gravity load and earthquake loads. The design was followed by an earthquake load as BNBC-1993. For serviceability, design and maximum earthquake, the structure's performance point is analyzed by ETABS software. Performance point of any structure, is required it has been generated with ETABS. But several parameters are required to generate the different figure. In this section, those parameters are defined and the design is plotted by ETABS. A high-rise building with standard columns and at various locations is considered for study in this work. This analysis was done in this article and was also compared according to the findings of the analysis. The results of the Base Shear study, Overall earthquake load deflection, Storey drift and Rebar percentage are compared. In bar chart and graphical type, the results are displayed.
