Analysis and Design of Steel Concrete Composite Structure and Its Comparison with RCC Structure

Abstract

Abstract: Composite Structure is quickly gaining acceptance in India's non-residential multi-story building sector. The reason for considering composite construction is simple: Steel is best in tension and concrete is best in compression. Combining these two materials strengthens their structural properties, which can be used to create a highly effective and lightweight design. Steelconcrete composite building systems are formed by connecting the steel beams to the profiled deck slab using shear connectors so that they function as a single unit, and for columns steel section is encased in concrete. In this present work, comparative study of G+15 R.C.C and composite multistorey commercial building located in Earthquake zone IV is Considered by Equivalent Static Method of Analysis. ETABS 2018 Software is used for modelling of both the structure. Storey Displacement, Storey Drift, Storey Shear, Self weight, Axial force, Bending moment and Shear force are considered as parameters. When the results are compared, it is observed that the Composite structure is superior in every aspect.
