Abstract
The present work investigates the seismic evaluation of two-storied unreinforced masonry building with rigid diaphragm when subjected to seismic lateral loading. The work consists of three-dimensional modeling of two-storied masonry building, which forms a common building stock in India. Nonlinear analysis is performed using SAP 2000 software. The building is designed for Bhuj (Zone V). After nonlinear analysis, retrofitting of masonry building is done by providing bond beam designed as per IS 4326:1993. The demands are calculated as per IS 1893:2002 and FEMA-356 (2000) and compared with the capacity of building obtained from nonlinear static curves. The main objective of the work is to perform pushover analysis on the masonry building in order to assess its performance for Bhuj (Zone V).
