Abstract

AbstractDiagrid structures are extensively used in tall buildings for their innovative architectural view and achievably efficient mechanism to limit displacements due to lateral loads. The present study is based on study on the behaviour of a diagrid structural system on G+36 high raised building, using CSI-ETABS software. The diagrid modelling with varying angles are adopted to understand the optimum inclination of diagrid elements. The study deals with the performance characteristics of the building under seismic activity evaluated by response spectrum analysis and nonlinear static pushover analysis. Seismic response of the models was studied in terms of storey displacement, base shear and performance points of the models. The nonlinearity was achieved using plastic hinges. A comparative study based on response spectrum analysis and nonlinear static pushover analysis was deduced.KeywordsETABSDiagrid structureOptimum anglePushover analysisPerformance point
