Abstract

A Bracing is a system that is provided to minimize the lateral deflection of the structure. The use of braced frames has become more popular in high rise structure and also in seismic design of structure. So, this Study aims to investigate the effect of earthquake on structure with different shapes of bracings. In this project a concrete frame is modeled by using Etabs Software with different type of bracing and effect of these different bracing on earthquake affected structure is studied for different parameter like storey drift and bending moment in column and story displacement. Among these numbers of trials which type of bracing at critical storey is more suitable in seismic areas would be selected for the structure from the observed results.
