Abstract

Abstract: In this examination we are preparing a relative report on a G+25 tall structure. In this structure we will contrast exposed casing and edges having various types of bracings at the corners. A three dimensional structure is taken, 25 stories is taken with story tallness of 3.5 m. The bars and segments are intended to withstand dead and live load only. Seismic tremor loads are taken by bracings. The bracings are given just on the fringe sections. Here auxiliary displaying and examination isfinished utilizing investigation programming Staad.pro which is a limited component based programming apparatus. A tall structure will be analyzed for seismic loading corresponding to various seismic zones. Effectiveness of bracings in reducing lateral displacements and their efficiencies during the earthquake is to be investigated. So the objective is to do comparative analysis between symmetrical G+25 storey RCC building with bracings and similar building without the bracings using commercially available software. Bracing play important role in keeping structure stable. Earthquake produces inertial forces in structure. X-bracing system has shown good results when it comes to reducing lateral displacements. As much as 26% decrease in lateral displacements in Z-Direction and up to 53% reduction in lateral displacements along X-direction is observed. But X-bracing arrangement shows most increase in value of Maximum bending moment (24.86%) and support reactions (30%).Base shear values are same in both directions. Since number of bracings along X-directions were more, bracings shown good performance in lateral displacements along X-axes. Diagonal bracing shows overall good performance considering Lateral displacements (45.58%), Support reactions (26.77%), and maximum bending moment (14.16%).Weight of the structure remains almost same. Not more than 2 percent change in weights of structure. Since base shear is dependent on weight, base shear also remain similar.Keywords: Comparative Analysis, Bracings, RC Building, Seismic Zones
