Abstract

Abstract: Flat slab construction practice faces great risk during severe earthquake shaking. In the study two different types of flat slab buildings are taken into account; flat slab with shear wall at X-Bracing and flat slab with at periphery. This lateral force resisting mechanism strengthens structural stiffness of these flat slab structures. It is observed that the lateral force resisting capacity of flat slab structure increases significantly with the use of shear wall.
