The increasing need of shelter in urban cities due to overpopulated spaces and land inadequacy has forced people to limit their needs and spaces. High-rise buildings are the best solution for providing people space for living and to work on, as the buildings are getting higher and slender, they are exposed to different loading condition, which leads the building to experience higher lateral deformations. With the help of different structural systems, the lateral stiffness of the buildings can be improved, there are many structural systems introduced for the high-rise structures which can provide the buildings adequate strength and stability against lateral loading. This paper examines behaviour of Special Moment Resisting Frame System with shear wall, Outrigger Core Belt Truss Structural System and Braced Frame System on a 30 storey building under worst seismic conditions in India i.e. Zone V. To understand effectiveness of the structural systems subjected to lateral loads, three different structural system are modelled using 3D finite element software ETABS 2018, all the models are subjected to the same loading conditions with same geometrical dimension and typical storey height. Comparison is examined on the basis of different parameters like Modal Mass Participation, Base shear, storey shear, Time period, Lateral displacement, storey drift, storey stiffness, and performance points. It was observed by the dynamic analysis method i.e., response spectrum analysis, and non-liner static analysis, the parameters which were compared between three structural system observed that building with outrigger core belt truss system performs better than Special Moment Resisting Frame + Shear Wall and Braced Frame Structural System.
