A Review on Effect of Shear Wall Area on Seismic Behavior of Multi-Storied Building with Soft Story at Ground Floor
Dr. Justin Moses Selvamony
Abstract
The efficient and secure design of ever-taller structures has been made possible by improvements in threedimensional structural analysis and computational capabilities. These buildings are a result of rising urban density and economic viability. Growingly taller structures may now be designed in an economical and secure manner because to improvements in three-dimensional structural analysis and computational power. These buildings are a result of growing urbanisation and economic viability. Buildings' traditional strength-based design approach must give way to one that focuses on limiting the total movement of the structure due to the trend toward steadily taller structures. The problem of lateral control has motivated structural engineers to develop a wide range of motion control systems that adhere to the overall architectural design. For urban development in regions with high seismic risks, reinforced concrete (RC) wall-frame buildings are highly advised. The building's lateral-force resisting system is significantly stiffened by the presence of structural walls. An earthquake with substantial shaking can cause these constructions to behave ductilely if the walls are detailed properly. The wall-area ratio is one of the key factors affecting how wall-frame constructions respond to earthquakes. As a result, the shear wall area ratio is chosen as the primary characteristic that requires investigation in this research work. In this paper, we will present a thorough analysis of how the shear wall area affects the seismic behaviour of multi-story buildings with soft ground floors. The report also includes research that was proposed in previous years (2011–2021) on the topic of the impact of shear wall ratio on seismic behaviour. As a road map for next findings, this research study also examines the important findings and the rationale behind discovering the lessons learnt
