Abstract

Abstract: In the construction field, new techniques or methods are invented and later implemented. But there are lots of land areas which exist at high seismic intensity zones in India. So that there is a need for an economic solution having earthquake resistant structure. The steel structures are light weight, cheap in cost, reusable, mostly recycled and most importantly more effective at withstanding seismic activities. Base isolation isolates the structure from strata so building becomes safe from seismic activities. Bracing provides stiffness and strength against horizontal shear. The steel structure with LRB and steel structure with bracing is designed and analysed on ETAB 16 software.
