Abstract
Abstract: This study investigates the effectiveness of incorporating openings in the roof of re-entrant corner plan irregular buildings at different locations under earthquake loads. Five models with varying degrees of diaphragm discontinuity were analysed using STAAD Pro software. Node displacement, storey shear in X and Z directions, stress values, and maximum bending moment were evaluated to assess structural performance. Results indicate that models with higher diaphragm discontinuity exhibit increased node displacements, storey shear, and stress levels. Model M3, with 17% diaphragm discontinuity, consistently demonstrates superior performance in terms of lower displacements and stress values compared to other models. However, final model selection should consider specific project requirements and design considerations.
