Abstract

The presence of wall infill during seismic impacts is one of the key factors that significantly affect the seismic stability of buildings. Also, irregularity of configuration in plan and height can often lead to more serious damage comparing to regular buildings, due to torsional oscillations and stress concentration on individual elements. The purpose of this article is to study the behavior of various irregularities in the shape of buildings under seismic impacts in terms of non-linear static analysis, taking into account the non-bearing wall infill. For this purpose, five typical geometric shapes of the building plan used in Ukraine and abroad (rectangular, + shape, L-shaped, T-shaped and 4-shaped) were adopted.The calculations were performed using the Pushover Analysis (nonlinear static analysis) method in CAD Lira-SAPR 2019. The main parameter that forms the basis for seismic stability analysis is the story drift under seismic impacts. Obtained results indicate the need to take into account the effect of wall infill, as this can lead to an increase in the seismic stability of the building and stress concentration on individual elements, which can lead to their collapse.
