This document summarizes common earthquake collapse patterns and their causes. It discusses several classifications of collapse patterns according to references 1 and 3, including soft story collapse, confinement deficiencies, vertical and planar irregularities, unintended stiffness additions, and local column failures. Some key reasons for these collapses are discussed, such as high water-cement ratios, insufficient curing, and lack of ductile reinforcement. Masonry structures are also examined, noting they are vulnerable without cement mortar or horizontal reinforcement bands. Recommendations include strong column weak beam design, ductile detailing per codes, and horizontal bands in masonry.
Earthquake-resistant structures are structures designed to protect buildings to some or greater extent from earthquakes. While no structure can be entirely immune to damage from earthquakes, the goal of earthquake-resistant construction is to erect structures that fare better during seismic activity than their conventional counterparts. According to building codes, earthquake-resistant structures are intended to withstand the largest earthquake of a certain probability that is likely to occur at their location. This means the loss of life should be minimized by preventing the collapse of the buildings for rare earthquakes while the loss of the functionality should be limited for more frequent ones
A report format presentation of earthquake-resistance construction techniques, stressing upon the relevance of such techniques in the architecture industry.

PERFORMANCE BASED ANALYSIS OF VERTICALLY IRREGULAR STRUCTURE UNDER VARIOUS SE...Ijripublishers Ijri
In the recent years a lot of attention has been given to the earthquake analysis of structure it is one of the most devastating
natural calamity and which causes severe damage not only to the properties but also to the lives. This is the
reason there has been a lot of focus on the structures to be earthquake resistant. Buildings get damaged mostly due
to the earthquake ground motions. In an earthquake, the building base experiences high frequency movements, which
results in the inertial force on the building and its components and this problem gets worse when a structure is irregular
in shape, size etc,. Therefore, there is a lot to work on the seismic behavior of the irregular building which might not
respond the way regular building does. It makes the irregular building quite more complex and unpredictable during
the course of an earthquake.
Seismic response of multi storey irregular building with floating columneSAT Journals
Abstract
In recent times, multi-storey buildings in urban cities are required to have column free space due to shortage of space, population and also for aesthetic and functional requirements. For this buildings are provided with floating columns at one or more storey. These floating columns are highly disadvantageous in a building built in seismically active areas. The earthquake forces that are developed at different floor levels in a building need to be carried down along the height to the ground by the shortest path. Deviation or discontinuity in this load transfer path results in poor performance of the building. In this paper, the critical position of floating column in vertically irregular buildings has been discussed for G+5 and G+7 RC buildings for zone II and zone V. Also the effect of size of beams and columns carrying the load of floating column has been assessed. The response of building such as storey drift, storey displacement and storey shear has been used to evaluate the results obtained using ETABS software.
Keywords: Floating column, Irregular building, Response spectrum method
Retrofitting is the seismic strengthening of existing damaged or undamaged structures.
Retrofitting a building involves changing its systems or structure after its initial construction and occupation. This work can improve amenities for the building's occupants and improve the performance of the building

Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure.

Tension/compression failures
Wall to roof interconnection

Local column failure
Heavy floor collapse
Torsion effect
Soft storey collapse
Mid-storey collapse

ACCORDING TO REFERENCE 3
Design deficiencies
• Soft storey
• Inefficient lateral stiffness
• Short column
• Strong beam weak column design
• Confinement deficiencies
• Irregularities etc
Construction defects
• Bad workmanship
• Poor quality control
• Inefficient wrapping of stirrup etc
Deficiency in service life
• Cut off or removed columns
• Soft storey formation etc
3
4. SOME IMPORTANT COLLAPSE PATTERNS
4
Soft storey collapse :
IS 1893 (Part 1) : 2002 defines soft storey as one
in which lateral stiffness is less than 70 percent of that in
the storey above.
Fig: A soft storey fig: The collapse of soft storey Fig: Collapsed soft storey
WHY ?
• Large retail spaces
• Significantly less stiffness/ rigidity
No Masonry infill walls
5. Confinement Deficiencies:
This is due to non ductile details not being well confined to
the transverse reinforcement(stirrups).
5
Deficient:
Efficient:

expected brittle damage in an earthquake
Fig: Effectively confined column and expected Fig: Damage pattern
ductile behaviour during earthquake
6. Vertical irregularity:
May be due to changing column axes , removed column.

Fig : Changing column axe Fig: Removed column Fig: Collapse pattern
Planar irregularity:
Fig: Irregular plan
Fig : Damage pattern
7. Unintended addition of stiffness :
Reduced effective length of columns , thereby increasing
its stiffness in terms of lateral forces.
7
The column in this case attracts larger horizontal shear
forces than its capacity.
Since, Stiffness is proportional to applied force.
8. Local Column Failure :
Due to horizontal offset
or insufficient vertical
capacity.
8
Failed columns
Wall-to-roof interconnection failure :
Vertical support of roof is lost
9. Pounding :
Meaning heavy strike and Collapse due to this is Pounding
collapse.
9
Normally occurs when two adjacent buildings have floors that are at different
elevation.
Some Main reasons for all these collapse :
• High water-cement ratio.
• Insufficient curing condition.
• Low fine aggregate content.
10. RECOMMENDATIONS
10
Basic measures to reduce the extent of collapse :
• Reinforcement must undergo large plastic deformation.
• Correct mix design of concrete.
• Strong column Weak beam concept.
Ductile Behaviour of structure is preferable , achieved in accordance with regulations
(Indian code of practice for ductile detailing is IS 13920:1993)
11. BEHAVIOUR OF MASONRY STRUCTURES
11
(Reference 4)
Usually subjected to vertical loads Adequate compressive strength
Most vulnerable during an earthquake
Develops shear and flexural stresses due to lateral loads
Poor bond between brick and mortar
Brick-in-cement-mortar responds better than stone and mortar

14. OBSERVATIONS
14
• Masonry buildings in mud mortar or lime mortar are prone to
severe damage due to lack of bond strength.
• Masonry with cement mortar behaves better.
• Use of lintel band introduces a rigid box-like behaviour.
• Properly bonded corner reinforcement with the surrounding
masonry prevents separation.
Suggestions for earthquake resistant masonry
• Horizontal bands proved helpful.
• Containment reinforcement.
