This document describes an experimental study that used shake table testing to analyze the response of building frame models situated on different foundation systems. The study investigated the natural frequencies and damping ratios of 3D frame models with 4, 6, and 8 stories supported by isolated, mat, and pile foundations when subjected to earthquake excitation. Free vibration tests were conducted to determine the dynamic properties of the models. The results showed that natural frequencies decreased and damping ratios increased as the foundation type changed from isolated to pile foundations. Empirical formulas were developed to estimate natural frequency and damping based on the foundation type and building height.

EFFECT OF SHEAR WALL AREA ON SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF MULTI STORIED BUILDINGS WITH...Ijripublishers Ijri
The advances in three-dimensional structural analysis and computing resources have allowed the efficient
and safe design of increasingly taller structures. These structures are the consequence of increasing urban
densification and economic viability. The trend towards progressively taller structures has demanded a shift
from the traditional strength based design approach of buildings to a focus on constraining the overall motion
of the structure. Structural engineers have responded to this challenge of lateral control with a myriad
of systems that achieve motion control while adhering to the overall architectural vision.
Reinforced Concrete (RC) wall-frame buildings are widely recommended for urban construction in areas
with high seismic hazard. Presence of structural walls imparts a large stiffness to the lateral-force resisting
system of the building. Proper detailing of walls can also lead to ductile behavior of such structures during
strong earthquake shaking. One of the major parameters influencing the seismic behavior of wall-frame
buildings is the wall-area ratio. Thus shear wall area ratio is set as a key parameter which needs to be investigated
in this analytical study.

Generally RC framed structures are designed without regards to structural action of masonry infill walls present. Masonry infill walls are widely used as partitions. These buildings are generally designed as framed structures without regard to structural action of masonry infill walls. They are considered as non- structural elements. RC frame building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during strong earthquake shaking. Past earthquakes are evident that collapses due to soft storeys are most often in RC buildings. In the soft storey, columns are severely stressed and unable to provide adequate shear resistance during the earthquake. . In this study, 3D analytical model of twelve storeyed buildings have been generated for different buildings Models and analyzed using structural analysis tool 'ETABS'. To study the effect of infill, ground soft, bare frame and models with ground soft having concrete core wall and shear walls and concrete bracings at different positions during earthquake; seismic analysis using both linear static, linear dynamic (response spectrum method) has been performed. The analytical model of the building includes all important components that influence the mass, strength, stiffness and deformability of the structure.

Influence of stratified soil on seismic response of pile supported buildingIJARIIT
In the last few decades, it has been perceived that Soil Structure Interaction (SSI) changed the reaction attributes of
a structural system due to huge and firm nature of structure and frequently, soil softness. In the current study, to depict the
influence of soil structure interaction on the seismic response of a structure due to earthquake loading, a 5 storied (G+4)
simple square building supported on pile foundation resting on stratified soil was selected. The building sections were
modelled and analysed for different configurations (i.e., with and without slab and infill) using finite element method
SAP2000. The deformations under seismic loading in the structure and piles by incorporating the effect of soil-structure
interaction and fixed base condition were extracted, compared and discussed. Impact of variety of the parameters on different
soil conditions like variation in soil profile and number of soil layers, influence of slab and infill are considered for which the
buildings are modelled by alternate approaches, namely, (1) bare frame with fixed supports, (2) frames including slab and
infill with support accounting for soil-flexibility. The results indicate that the roof displacement varies significantly for
different soil layer combinations if included the soil structure interaction compared to that of fixed base analysis. Thus
considering the effect of SSI is essential. The horizontal displacement of the structure is maximum for a bare frame with slab
when compared to bare frame and infill frame. When infill wall is added to the structure, the horizontal displacement is
decreased due to the stiffness of the infill wall.

“ Study of Sesmic Analysis of Masonry Wall Structure”IJERA Editor
Earthquakes are natural trouble under which disasters are mainly caused by damage or collapse of the structure and other man-made structures. When an earthquake occurs natural period of vibration is more on heavy loaded building and less in light loaded building. If the building is light weighted, i.e. steel is less then economy of structure is also achieved. Hence it is necessary to find out natural/fundamental time period when mass changes with different type of brick masonry and concrete masonry.This is necessary because IS 1893:2002 does not incorporate the effect of mass in a formula which they have mentioned for brick masonary structure. Thedesign will also analyze with ETAB software.
Seismic Performance Evaluation of Multi-Storeyed R C Framed Structural System...IJERA Editor
Masonry infills are normally considered as non-structural elements and their stiffness contributions are generally ignored in practice. But they affect both the structural and non-structural performance of the RC buildings during earthquakes. RC frame building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during strong earthquake shaking. A similar soft storey effect can also appear at top storey level if a storey used as a service storey. Hence a combination of two structural system components i.e. Rigid frames and RC shear walls leads to a highly efficient system in which shear wall resist the majority of the lateral loads and the frame supports majority of the gravity loads. To study the effect of masonry infill and different soft storey level, 11 models of R C framed building were analyzed with two types of shear wall when subjected to earthquake loading. The results of bare frame and other building models have been compared, it is observed that model with swastika and L shape shear wall with core wall are showing efficient performance and hence reducing the effect of soft storey and also reducing the effect of water pressure in the top soft storey.

Influence of Modeling Masonry Infill on Seismic Performance of Multi-Storeyed...ijsrd.com
Masonry infilled RC frames are the most common type of structures used for multi-storeyed constructions in the developing countries, even in those which are located in seismically active regions also. Masonry infill walls are mainly used to increase the stiffness and strength of R C framed buildings. R C framed building with open first storey is known as soft storey, which performs poorly during earthquakes. A similar soft storey effect can also appear top storey level if it is used as service storey. The soft storey located in the upper part of the multistorey building does not significantly affect. To observe the effect of masonry infill panel, it is modeled as an equivalent double diagonal strut. In this study 7 models are taken were analyzed with two different techniques of modelling of masonry infill wall with L type of shear wall when subjected to earthquake loading. The results of masonry infill show more stiffness than the strut modeling technique. It is observed that, providing infill wall and shear wall improves earthquake resistant behavior of the structure and also the effect of water pressure, an attempt is made to develop relationship between strength and stiffness ratios for linear trend line.
Comparative study on multistoried building using linear and non linear analysisIJARIIT
The effect of infill walls on the building is generally neglected in the analysis. In fact, an infill wall contributes to the
lateral strength and stiffness of the structure. Seismic response analysis of multi storey building frame with infill was done by
modeling the infill wall as an equivalent diagonal strut. For the equivalent diagonal strut, the thickness is taken equal to the
thickness of the wall and width of the strut as per “Equivalent strut method”. The comparison of seismic responses is done for
the multi-storied buildings with infill as equivalent diagonal strut using linear and non-linear analysis. ETABS software is used
for the present study.

Most of the mega cities in India are in seismically active
zones.
By design engineers, any foundations such as shallow, pile, or
pile-raft foundation have been considered.
Many high rise buildings in India are supported on pile
foundations in seismically active areas.
Many mid rise and tall buildings have been built in EQ prone
areas employing different types of foundation systems.

When an earthquake occurs, structures and the ground vibrate
together influencing response of each other. This phenomenon
is called soil-structure interaction.
The response of a structure to earthquake shaking is affected
by interactions between three linked systems viz.,
structure,
foundation and
soil.

5. Why? Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)
Seismic input motion acting on structure-soil system affect the

7. Contd…
In urban areas where land is limited and buildings are closely
spaced, deep excavation for construction are necessary.
Soil excavations resulting in a ditch or a trench adjacent to a
building may adversely affect the nearby buildings in the event
of earthquakes.
The effect of the earthquake on super structures have been
studied before construction of the underground and has been
compared with those induced after excavation of the adjacent
soil.
10
8. Literature Gap
Limited study has found in performance of different type of
foundations under the effect of SSI.
Very limited study was found showing the performance of
frame buildings of different heights standing on different
foundations system in proximity to a parallel trench.
It is very necessary to determine experimentally the minimum
spacing of a trench from a building line so that the building is
least affected.
It is also very much desired to obtained empirical formulas to
estimate the damping and natural frequencies of building frame
models on different type of foundations.
11
9. OBJECTIVE
The key objectives of the experimental investigations are:
To develop empirical relation of natural frequency and damping
ratio for different heights of frame structures.
Investigating the behaviour and response of conventional building
frame models resting on various foundation systems (i.e. shallow
and deep foundation) subjected to earthquake excitation
considering the influence of SSI.
To examine the response of the experimental model for different
length of deep piles using the shake table test.
Response of the building frames in proximity to excavations
under earthquake.

17. Building Frame for the study
Three types of conventional moment
resisting frame models are used as
prototype superstructure of four, six
and eight storeys.
The slender frame building models
are assumed to be a residential
building and it has a plan dimension
of 3m x 3m and the height of 12 m,
18m and 24 m from the ground level,
respectively.
Each frame model consists of one
span with a total width of 3m.
The plan and elevation of the test
models are shown in Figure 6.

The size of the isolated footing of the actual building was 2m x
2m.
The size of mat footing was 6m x 6m.
In this study, two separate depths of piles were considered.
In the first case, the depth of piles was 9m (abbreviated as
Pile#1) and in the second case the depth of piles was 11.75m
(abbreviated as Pile#2).
19. Soil Container
In the shake table test,
the soil cannot be placed
in an infinite dimension
box.
Due to variation of
system vibration and
wave reflection on the
boundary, the error is
bounded to occur in test
results.
22
Figure 7: Soil Container
20. Contd….
The ideal soil container should simulate the free field soil behaviour as
it exists in the prototype, by minimising the boundary effects.
The flexible soil container was designed and prepared at the Heavy
Structure Lab, NIT Patna.
The dimension of flexible soil container is 650mm X 650mm X
650mm as shown in Figure 7.
Due to limitations in container size, a laminar soil container was
designed to simulate the flexible boundary (Hokmabadi et al. 2015; Lu
et al. 2002; Luzhen et al. 2010; Turan et al. 2009b).
To minimise the boundary effects the inner sides of soil container were
laminated with foam layer of thickness 20mm (Chen et al. 2012;
Guobo et al. 2018; Hokmabadi et al. 2015; Qian et al. 2018).
The base of the container was made of steel plate.
23
21. Contd…
To avoid over-deformation during lifting, the container corners
were braced with steel sheets.
To avoid the slippage of container the base of the soil container
was fixed with shake table platform by using steel fasteners
and bolts.
Container was filled in with 5 layers of soil and properly
compacted.
The filled in soil was left for some days to simulate its natural
condition approximately and thereafter the properties of the
soil were determined.
24
22. Soil and its Property
Soil parameters were derived from laboratory tests to get a
broad view of the geotechnical properties.
The specific gravity, dry density, and plasticity index of the soil
obtained from the tests were 2.69, 16.8 kN/m3 and 15%,
respectively.
This soil is classified as silty-sand soil as per the Indian
Standard Soil Classification.

23. Foundation Models used for this study
The size of isolated, mat and pile foundations were considered
judiciously as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 9: El-Centro N-S earthquake input excitation (a) acceleration, (b) displacement
• In this study, the acceleration time history and response values of the N-S
component of El-Centro earthquake (California 1940) was used.
• The frequency of this earthquake input motion is 2.92 Hz.
• The absolute maximum amplitude of El-Centro N-S component
earthquake is 0.319g.
• Input motions for the shake table tests are filtered with a 50 Hz low-pass
filter to filter out the frequency component above 50 Hz.

27. Assumptions of Experiment
Following are the assumptions were considered which apply
uniformly during the entire experimental program:
The properties of soil remain the same during the entire
experimental process.
The dimension of the soil container was considered the
same during the entire experiment.
The flexible boundary of the container represent the soil
continuity.
30
28. Limitations of the Experimental Study
Following limitations apply to the contemplated experimental
investigation study:
The entire study was conducted for one bay symmetrical building frame
models. Asymmetrical building models have not been considered in this
study.
During experiments, the properties of soil remain the same.
In the entire experiment, the N-S component of El-Centro earthquake
excitation is considered.
Excavations of finite dimensions and their offset distance are considered.
The excess pore water pressure of the soil mix was not measured during the
shake table tests in this study.

29. Free Vibration Test: Determination of
Natural Frequency and Damping Ratio
In free vibration method the structure
is suddenly released from an imposed
initial displacement and the resulting
free vibration digital data are
recorded.
The natural frequencies and damping
ratio of frame models are computed.
For free vibration test, the structural
model was directly fixed on shake
table platform and a horizontal pull
was applied by using non-extensible
rope as shown in Figure 10.

taking two cases:
i) by fixing the frame model legs directly on the shake
table platform and

59. Influence of Height on Frame Displacement
Adjacent to Excavation
It is seen that irrespective of the building size of the frame
models, the value of seismic response varies in accordance with
trench size and their dimension.
Figure 28 to 31 show that:
the increasing trench depth increases the deflections of the buildings in
all types of foundations.
isolated and mat footings produce almost equal deflections at the top
floor.
After a certain depth of excavation equal to approximately a
quarter of the lateral dimension of the building, it is observed
that the model is getting excessively deflected.
The pile foundations show a linear increment of deflections in
the building with increasing trench depth.

60. Numerical Modelling
A 3D numerical analysis have been attempted to perform the
seismic behaviour of building frame model.
The shake table experimental results were used to verify the
developed numerical model.
ABAQUS is used to simulate building frame model using
various foundation types and different element behaviour.

In this study, the finite element mesh is generated with 8-noded
element.
C3D8R was used for beams-columns-soil and soil container.
For slab and foundation, S4R elements were used.
A master surface is an element-based surface.
Slave surfaces, on the other hand, can be either element or node
based.
The option for selecting master and slave surfaces depends on
the types of problem given.
In this study, relatively rigid surface were selected as master
surface.
In this analysis geostatic stress is not considered to the finite
element mesh because of problems related to static boundary
conditions for the dynamic model.

Viscous boundary condition has been defined at the side
boundary of soil by providing dashpot to avoid wave reflection
from lateral surface of soil (Deeks and Randolph 1994; Fenza
2011; Li and Lü 2004).

For this study, Rayleigh viscous damping coefficient is
considered.
The Rayleigh viscous damping coefficient for a given
frequency can be expressed in terms of critical damping
as:
where, α and β are the Rayleigh damping coefficients.
• For calculation of the value of α and β first two modes of
natural frequencies of building system were considered.
• The peak displacement experienced on the top-left corner
node of the structure is compared with the experimental
results of the model structures.

It is observed that some differences in experimental and
numerical results occur.
The reason can be attributed to different limitations in
experimental setup.
During experiment it is very difficult to replicate actual test
model.
For example, replicating the field soil with the soil mass in the
container, boundary conditions, frame model, experimental
measurements and human errors are some of the plausible
factors.
In majority of the cases, the percentages difference is less than
10%. Only in few cases the difference is slightly exceeds 10%.
Therefore, results are in agreement.
73. Conclusions based on the Shaking Table
Tests
Based on the experimental study the following conclusions made:
Both the natural frequency and the damping ratio depend
on the foundation systems of the frame models.
The natural frequency of frame models situated in fixed
condition is maximum as compared to other end
conditions.
The time period of frame models increases with the
increase in height of model, irrespective of foundation
type.
The pile foundation gives the least damping ratio as
compared to all other foundation systems irrespective of
the heights of buildings.

When compared to other foundations, the damping
ratio of fixed base foundations is also higher.
However, the fixed base condition seldom exists.
The taller building frame model standing on a given type
of footing is found to have lower damping ratio.
Fixed base offers least lateral displacement as compared to
all other types of foundations.
Pile foundation offers least lateral displacement of the
frame models as compared to isolated and mat
foundations.
Deeper pile (Pile#2) gives the least displacement for a
particular height of frame models.
75. Contd…
78
In case of isolated footing system the frame model
experiences maximum acceleration response.
The maximum displacement takes place in the case of
isolated footing system for all frame height.
The maximum displacement for all building heights tends to
decrease in the order of isolated-mat-pile foundation system.
The structure supported by the shallow foundation has a 55
% more maximum lateral deflection as compared to the
maximum lateral deflection for the fixed-base building.
Comparing with fixed base type of foundation, pile
foundations give larger lateral displacements of the
superstructure.

Irrespective of the building height of frame model the
value of seismic response varies in accordance with trench
size and their dimension.
Increasing the trench depth increases the deflection of the
buildings in all types of foundation systems.
When the trench depth is more than quarter of the lateral
dimension of the building, the top floor deflection of the
building with isolated footing is more as compared to mat
footing.
77. Contd…
80
Deep pile as compared to isolated footing is found to
produce lesser deflection of the building adjacent to a
trench.
The depth of the excavation should be limited upto the
quarter width of the building.
78. Main significant points and applications
81
Main significant points and applications are highlighted as :
By using proposed empirical formula the damping and
frequency of the buildings can be estimated quickly.
The depth of the trench should be limited up to the quarter
width of the building to prevent excessive deflection.
79. Recommendations for Future Works
Extend the numerical and physical shake table models to account
for foundations with varying parameters.
The current results of study can be applied to a broader range of
earthquake experiments in engineering practice.
Perform future studies on cases when frame models are
embedded.
Adopt the findings of this study and related studies to create a
new design procedure that fills a gap in the existing design codes.
Various scale factors can also be selected to extend this study to
determine the effect of scale factor.
