PUSHOVER ANALYSIS OF EARTHQUAKE RESISTANCE RCC STRUCTURE USING STAAD.PRO SOFTWARE

Abstract

RCC structure has become crucial to the construction industry in recent decades. A structure must be designed with strong seismic performance in mind. A multi-story reinforced concrete building's seismic performance is planned in compliance with the current Indian code (IS 456 -2000). The study of each structural members performance is conducted using nonlinear static analysis. This paper study about a popular method to ascertain the performance level of a building is through pushover analysis, which yields results that indicate whether collapse occurs at the member or structure level. Performance-based design is used to evaluate the performance level of buildings subjected to earthquakes. Various approaches in nonlinear static analysis were developed to study the performance of a building. This assessment has taken into account a non-existing solid Rcc structure that is assumed to be located in Zone IV, as defined by IS 1893:2000, a classification of seismic zones in India. During the entire inquiry, brick work infills have been considered to be non-structural individuals. Systems for inelastic static static study include the Secant Method, the Displacement Coefficient Method, and the Capacity Spectrum Method. Pushover Analysis, a non-direct static approach, was used to examine the structure's weak points, building on static testing. The structure was recreated in SeismoStruct Version 5.2.2 using M20 cement and Fe415 steel support, as predicted in STAAD Pro v8i. After that, the research is carried out for 150% of the predetermined objective displacing for the structure to track individual yielding and the sufficiency of the core quality. The degree of damage suffered by the structure during the objective displacing is thought to represent the damage the structure would experience under configuration level ground shaking.
