WITHDRAWN: Earth quake analysis of regular and irregular structures for all the soil types in seismic zone V

Abstract

Abstract There has been a remarkable advancement in the research on design in the scope of engineering in the last couple of decades. There are many studies that contribute to better performance of buildings. Herein, to understand the seismic effects on a building when one of the design parameters is varying while others remaining constant, this study is conducted. The lateral forces at different levels of a structure in seismic zone V in all of the soil types are studied. The seismic loading with a varying soil conditions in the seismic zone is applied on all the structures. Both regularly and irregularly planned buildings are incorporated which are of varying heights (G + 3, G + 6, G + 9, and G + 12). The structure’s response in terms of lateral forces at all storey levels is analyzed varying the parameters. While the pattern observed is similar in regular and irregular cases, the soft soil type had higher storey shear when the storey levels increased.
