This document reviews literature on the behavior of reinforced concrete structural walls with openings. It discusses how parameters like slenderness ratio, aspect ratio, and opening characteristics influence the load-carrying capacity of walls. Several studies that have experimentally tested walls with varying configurations of openings are summarized. The studies found that openings reduce load capacity and that two-way walls generally have greater capacity than one-way walls. Finite element modeling was also found to accurately predict wall behavior in some studies. While much research has focused on one-way walls and designed openings, the document calls for more study of two-way walls and cut-out openings. It concludes that openings significantly influence wall strength depending on their size, shape and position.
Optimum Shape of Cut-Out Opening on Concrete Structural WallIRJET Journal
This document discusses research on the optimal shape of cut-out openings in concrete structural walls. It begins with background on the importance of structural walls and previous research focusing on walls with predefined openings. The document then summarizes parameters that influence the strength of walls with openings, such as slenderness ratio, aspect ratio, and opening size/location. It describes modeling done using ANSYS software to analyze the effects of cutting different shaped openings in one-way and two-way action wall panels in order to determine the most optimal shape. The goal is to understand how openings influence load-carrying capacity so that strength can be effectively regained by proper opening design.
Seismic Evaluation of RC Building with Various Infill Thickness at Different ...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on evaluating the seismic performance of reinforced concrete buildings with masonry infill walls of various thicknesses in different positions. Previous studies have shown that infill walls can improve the strength, stiffness, and energy absorption of RC frames under seismic loads. However, infill walls are often not properly considered in structural design. This study aims to investigate how infill wall thickness and location affect seismic response parameters like moments, shear forces, displacements and drift. The results will help identify efficient building configurations to inform seismic design codes.

This document discusses a comparative study on the dynamic behavior of multi-storey buildings with and without coupled shear wall systems. It analyzes buildings using the software ETABS to study parameters like storey displacement, drift, base shear, and time period under static and dynamic loading conditions. Coupled shear walls are more effective at resisting lateral forces from earthquakes and winds. When openings are introduced in shear walls, coupled shear walls help reduce stress concentrations around the openings. Analysis of buildings with different numbers of stories shows coupled shear walls can improve performance, with benefits seen especially in taller buildings.

This document reviews research on comparing the effect of earthquakes on buildings with and without shear walls. It summarizes several studies that found shear walls help reduce lateral displacement during earthquakes. Shear walls resist horizontal forces and provide stiffness. Openings in shear walls can increase displacement, as can thinner flanges on shear walls. Locating shear walls at corners or in the building core was found to minimize displacement compared to other positions. Studies concluded shear walls substantially reduce earthquake impacts and non-shear wall buildings may need retrofitting in high risk areas. Future research could further examine effects of column flanges and different shear wall placements.
This study uses explicit finite element analysis to predict the behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite grid reinforced concrete beams subjected to four-point bending. The finite element models accurately captured the load-deflection behavior observed experimentally. A substructure model was also developed to analyze stresses in the longitudinal reinforcement at failure. This led to a proposed analysis procedure that accounts for different failure modes, providing conservative predictions of load capacity.

IRJET- Seismic Linear Analysis of Low Rise Open Ground Storey BuildingsIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study on the seismic linear analysis of low-rise open ground storey buildings. It discusses how the presence of infill walls affects building behavior under lateral loads. While engineers often ignore wall stiffness in analysis, this may not be accurate for discontinuous walls in open ground storey buildings. The study aims to evaluate the code-recommended 2.5 multiplication factor for stiffness and examine how infill strength and stiffness impact seismic analysis of open ground storey buildings with different support conditions using commercial software. The results showed the 2.5 factor was too high for beam and column forces, and stiffness was similar with or without infills in open ground storey buildings. Support conditions significantly influenced response.
This thesis investigates design considerations for underwater concrete floors in circular building pits with diaphragm walls. It first analyzes the risk of a gap forming between the wall and floor due to differences in shrinkage and wall displacement. If a gap is possible, three design cases are considered: 1) full connection of wall and floor, 2) shear connection only, 3) no connection. The thesis then examines design optimizations for floor dimensioning under each case, such as anchor configurations, concrete properties, and reinforcement additions. The goal is to provide guidance for dimensioning underwater concrete floors depending on the wall-floor interface state.

Three series of push-off tests were conducted to study subbase friction characteristics for typical Korean jointed concrete pavement systems under different subbase conditions. The subbase conditions tested were: I) concrete slab directly cast on lean concrete subbase, II) polythene sheet placed between slab and subbase, and III) asphalt bond breaker layer between slab and subbase. Tests were performed at various loading rates and slab thicknesses to evaluate how these factors influence subbase friction properties. Results showed that subbase type and stiffness affected the failure plane location and shape of the friction-displacement curve. Softer subbases led to failure at the slab-subbase interface and a decreasing friction curve, while stiffer subbases
Performance of shear wall building during seismic excitationsIAEME Publication
This document summarizes a study on the performance of shear wall buildings during seismic excitations. The study analyzed a 25-story building located in seismic zone 3, comparing the performance of two models: one with an L-shaped shear wall and one with a core-type shear wall. Time history analyses found that the building with the L-shaped wall experienced greater maximum displacement than the building with the core wall. Thus, providing shear walls as a core type can reduce story drift. Additionally, as the height of the building increases, shear walls absorb more lateral force than frames. Previous studies have also shown that shear walls with flanges perform better than walls without due to interaction between the flange and web.
The document summarizes research that evaluated the bonding conditions between concrete overlays and existing pavements through field evaluations, laboratory experiments, and finite element modeling. The field evaluations found that grouting materials generally helped maintain higher initial and long-term bond strengths compared to no grouting, resulting in less cracking and distress. Laboratory experiments found that polymer concrete specimens exhibited higher early-age bond strengths than regular concrete specimens. Finite element modeling used spring elements to simulate different bonding conditions and quantify bonding levels.
The document summarizes a study that characterized the mechanical properties of the concrete-asphalt interface in bonded concrete overlays. Laboratory tests were conducted on composite cylindrical specimens under different temperatures, moisture conditions, and loading types. Results showed the interface stiffness was strongly related to and weaker than the asphalt stiffness. The interface softened significantly under wet conditions. Shear fatigue testing found damage occurred primarily in the asphalt, not the interface. Specimens fatigued dry recovered stiffness better than wet specimens, suggesting water exposure weakens the interface. The study provides insight into the mechanical behavior of the concrete-asphalt interface.

This document summarizes research on analyzing soft stories in multi-story buildings. A soft story is defined as a floor with large openings like windows, doors or parking areas that make it less stiff than other floors. Previous studies have analyzed the seismic performance of buildings with soft stories at different levels and proposed techniques to improve performance, such as adding bracing systems or stiffening columns. The document reviews literature on pushover analyses of buildings with soft stories and assessing their vulnerability. It is concluded that shifting soft stories to higher levels results in less yielding and formation of lower intensity hinges compared to soft stories at lower levels.
STUDY ON SEISMIC EFFECT OF HIGH RISE BUILDING SHEAR WALL/WALL WITHOUT SHEAR WALLIAEME Publication

Analytical models of G+5, G+10, and G+15 buildings were created in STAAD Pro and analyzed using the equivalent static method. Results show that lateral displacement is less in buildings with special moment resisting frames (SMRF) using shear walls compared to ordinary moment resisting frames (OMRF) without shear walls. The maximum difference in storey drift between SMRF and OMRF increases from 0.15% for G+5 to 0.66% for G+15 buildings in zone III, and from 0.04% to 0.41% respectively in zone II.
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.

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Steel Moment Resisting Frame due to Infil...IDES Editor
Steel moment resisting frame with open first storey
(soft storey) is known to perform well compared with the RC
frames during strong earthquake shaking. The presence of
masonry infill wall influences the overall behavior of the
structure when subjected to lateral forces, when masonry infill
are considered to interact with their surrounding frames the
lateral stiffness and lateral load carrying capacity of structure
largely increase. In this paper, the seismic vulnerability of
building with soft storey is shown with an example of G+10
three dimensional (3D) steel frame. The open first storey is
an important functional requirement of almost all the urban
multi-storey buildings, and hence, cannot be eliminated.
Hence some special measures need to be adopted for this
specific situation. The under-lying principle of any solution
to this problem is in increasing the stiffness’s of the first
storey such that the first storey stiffness is at least 50% as
stiff as the second storey, i.e., soft first storeys are to be avoided,
and providing adequate lateral strength in the first storey. In
this paper, stiffness balancing is proposed between the first
and second storey of a steel moment resisting frame building
with open first storey and brick infills as described in models.
A simple example building is analyzed by modeling it with
nine different methods. The stiffness effect on the first storey
is demonstrated through the lateral displacement profile of
the building.
1. The document discusses a study on the effect of infilled brick walls on the behavior of eccentrically braced frames (EBFs).
2. It describes developing a finite element model to simulate the interaction between the steel frame and masonry wall, and validating the model by comparing results to experimental tests.
3. The validated model is then used to study how the infilled brick wall influences the behavior of the total EBF, including the wall's shear strength and cracking patterns under loading.
Seismic response of frp strengthened rc frameiaemedu
This document discusses research on strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) frames with fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP). It summarizes previous studies on using FRP to strengthen beams and columns. However, few studies have analyzed FRP-strengthened RC frames as a whole system. The present study uses finite element analysis to model RC frames strengthened with varying FRP thicknesses and investigates their seismic response. Models of 2-bay, 3-story and 3-bay, 5-story frames are analyzed for different crack locations. The results are intended to help develop design criteria for seismic retrofitting of RC frames with FRP.
This document summarizes a study on strengthening steel beams with web openings. Finite element models were created in ANSYS to analyze 49 steel beams with variations in web opening shape, size, location, and reinforcement type. The models were verified against previous experimental test results. A parametric study examined the effects of square, rectangular, and circular web openings with varying height-to-depth ratios, widths, and positions along the beam span under uniform and concentrated loads. Five reinforcement types were also analyzed. The results showed the reduction in load capacity due to web openings and the improvement from different stiffener designs.
Experimental Study, Simulation and Model Predictions of Recycled PET Strip-Re...IJERA Editor
This study presents results from a theoretical-experimental program of beams partially pre-stressed made with continuous recycled PET strip-reinforced concrete (plain concrete strength of 20 MPa). These studies mainly attempted to determine the stripinfluence in altering the flexural strength at first and final crack. Also the load-deflection, ductility, energy absorption capacity of the beams are observed and the studies can be used in predicting the flexural behavior of longitudinally reinforced concrete. The model theory assumes that concrete has a tensile load capacity different from zero, characterized by a uniaxial tensile stress-strain diagram. The need for non-linear geometric and the material models imply the use of numerical methods such as the finite element method; so that, a finite element analysis of reinforced concrete beam with strips-reinforced plastic is performed. The obtained results were compared with computer analysis and experimental data to corroborate the validity of the suggested method, showing that the theory also predicts correctly the post-cracking creep deformation.
Static Analysis of Masonry Infilled R.C.Frame With &Without Opening Including...IOSR Journals
Masonry infill is considered as a non-structural element in all type of buildings where masonry use.
But, masonry infill walls are mainly used to increase initial stiffness and strength of reinforced concrete (RC)
frame buildings. This Open First storey is also termed as “Soft Storey”. The upper storeys have brick infilled
wall panels with various opening percentage in it. In many cities of India, it is very common to leave the first
storey of masonry infilled reinforcement concrete (RC) frame building open preliminary to generate parking
space or any other usage in the first storey. Such buildings are highly undesirable in seismically active areas. In
the present study, it is an attempt to access the performance of masonry infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames
with soft storey of with and without opening. In this paper, symmetrical frame of college building (G+5) located
in seismic zone-III is considered by modelling of initial frame. According to FEMA-273, & ATC-40 which
contain the provisions of calculation of stiffness of infilled frames by modelling infill as“Equivalent Diagonal
Strut Method”. Therefore, the infill panels are modelled as equivalent diagonal strut method. The error
involved in modelling such buildings as neglecting the presence of infills in the upper storeys, is brought out
through the study of an example building with different analytical models. This linear static analysis is to be
carried out on the models such as Strut frame with 15%, 20%, & 25% centre &corner opening, which is
performed by using computer software STAAD-Pro from which different parameters are computed. In which it
shows that how infill panels increase the stiffness of the structure. While the increase in the opening percentage
leads to a decrease on the lateral stiffness of infilled frame. This paper highlights the importance of the presence
of the open first storey in the analysis of the building

The strength and ductility of concrete ameliorated by providing appropriate
confinement has paved way for designing structures that would withstand loads of
extreme intensities. The behaviour of concrete confined by single layered transverse
reinforcement has already been construed substantially. This paper presents a
consistent experimental study conducted on a novel and recently proposed Reinforced
Concrete column consisting of two layers of confining reinforcement. The concrete
inside the column experiences three different levels of confinement, viz., doubly
confined concrete inside the inner layer of lateral reinforcement, singly confined
concrete between the two layers of the transverse reinforcement, and the unconfined
concrete cover. The variables contemplated to study the behaviour and amount of
confinement in double layered stirrup concrete column comprise: addition of inner
layer, variedness in the shape and form of the transverse reinforcement forming the
inner layer, grade of concrete, varying number and amount of longitudinal
reinforcement forming the outer layer, proximity ratio between the inner and outer
layers and the varied amount and spacing of transverse reinforcement encompassing
the inner layer. It has been ascertained that the confinement effects emerged
“ 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 study and performance of 30 storey high rise building with beam slab,...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study that compares the seismic performance of 30-story high-rise buildings with three different structural systems: conventional beam-slab, flat slab, and an alternate flat-beam slab system. Response spectrum analysis was used to model and analyze the buildings. The time periods, base shear, story shears, displacements, drifts, and column forces of each building were compared. The results showed that the beam-slab building performed better seismically, with lower drifts and accelerations compared to the flat slab building. The alternate flat-beam slab building performance was between the other two but closer to the beam-slab building. The flat slab building had significantly higher drifts and required columns
Nonlinear fe modelling of anchorage bond in reinforced concreteeSAT Journals
Abstract The transfer of forces from the surrounding concrete to the reinforcing bars in reinforced concrete (RC) can be influenced by several parameters. In this paper an attempt has been made to study the influence of specimen geometry, bar diameter, strength of concrete, lateral confinement and embedment length on the bond properties of concrete. The embedment length of the bar was varied between 50mm and 400mm by varying the diameter of the bar, strength of concrete and lateral confinement. The different bar diameters of 16, 20 and 25mm were selected along with three different concrete strengths of 25, 40 and 65MPa. The specimens with the above parameters were modeled by using a nonlinear finite element analysis package. It has been found that for the same geometry, the specimens with small bond length exhibited high bond strength. With the range of bar diameters considered the bond strength of concrete decreases as the diameter of the bar increases. The splitting failure has been observed in unconfined concrete, while the pullout failure was predominant when the concrete laterally confined. In case of large embedment length, the post peak plateau is prolonged with small diameter bars when compared to the large diameter bars. The descending branch of the bond stress-slip response with large diameter bars has been found to be steep. Keywords: Bond Stress, FE Analysis, Embedment Length, Confinement, Bar Diameter, Pull-out Specimens.

Emporis standards define a high rise building as “A multi-storey structure between 35-100 meters tall”. When buildings become taller and taller, the effect of lateral load on the structure comes into existence. The lateral action on the structure is majorly induced by the wind and seismic force.
They needs a lateral load resisting system to maintain the structure stable when lateral loads are applied to them.
The different lateral load resisting systems in the high rise building are

These studies mainly attempted to determine the stripinfluence in altering the flexural strength at first and final crack. Also the load-deflection, ductility, energy absorption capacity of the beams are observed and the studies can be used in predicting the flexural behavior of longitudinally reinforced concrete. The model theory assumes that concrete has a tensile load capacity different from zero, characterized by a uniaxial tensile stress-strain diagram. The need for non-linear geometric and the material models imply the use of numerical methods such as the finite element method; so that, a finite element analysis of reinforced concrete beam with strips-reinforced plastic is performed. The obtained results were compared with computer analysis and experimental data to corroborate the validity of the suggested method, showing that the theory also predicts correctly the post-cracking creep deformation.
Static Analysis of Masonry Infilled R.C.Frame With &Without Opening Including...IOSR Journals
Masonry infill is considered as a non-structural element in all type of buildings where masonry use.
But, masonry infill walls are mainly used to increase initial stiffness and strength of reinforced concrete (RC)
frame buildings. This Open First storey is also termed as “Soft Storey”. The upper storeys have brick infilled
wall panels with various opening percentage in it. In many cities of India, it is very common to leave the first
storey of masonry infilled reinforcement concrete (RC) frame building open preliminary to generate parking
space or any other usage in the first storey. Such buildings are highly undesirable in seismically active areas. In
the present study, it is an attempt to access the performance of masonry infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames
with soft storey of with and without opening. In this paper, symmetrical frame of college building (G+5) located
in seismic zone-III is considered by modelling of initial frame. According to FEMA-273, & ATC-40 which
contain the provisions of calculation of stiffness of infilled frames by modelling infill as“Equivalent Diagonal
Strut Method”. Therefore, the infill panels are modelled as equivalent diagonal strut method. The error
involved in modelling such buildings as neglecting the presence of infills in the upper storeys, is brought out
through the study of an example building with different analytical models. This linear static analysis is to be
carried out on the models such as Strut frame with 15%, 20%, & 25% centre &corner opening, which is
performed by using computer software STAAD-Pro from which different parameters are computed. In which it
shows that how infill panels increase the stiffness of the structure. While the increase in the opening percentage
leads to a decrease on the lateral stiffness of infilled frame. This paper highlights the importance of the presence
of the open first storey in the analysis of the building

The strength and ductility of concrete ameliorated by providing appropriate
confinement has paved way for designing structures that would withstand loads of
extreme intensities. The behaviour of concrete confined by single layered transverse
reinforcement has already been construed substantially. This paper presents a
consistent experimental study conducted on a novel and recently proposed Reinforced
Concrete column consisting of two layers of confining reinforcement. The concrete
inside the column experiences three different levels of confinement, viz., doubly
confined concrete inside the inner layer of lateral reinforcement, singly confined
concrete between the two layers of the transverse reinforcement, and the unconfined
concrete cover. The variables contemplated to study the behaviour and amount of
confinement in double layered stirrup concrete column comprise: addition of inner
layer, variedness in the shape and form of the transverse reinforcement forming the
inner layer, grade of concrete, varying number and amount of longitudinal
reinforcement forming the outer layer, proximity ratio between the inner and outer
layers and the varied amount and spacing of transverse reinforcement encompassing
the inner layer. It has been ascertained that the confinement effects emerged
“ 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 study and performance of 30 storey high rise building with beam slab,...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study that compares the seismic performance of 30-story high-rise buildings with three different structural systems: conventional beam-slab, flat slab, and an alternate flat-beam slab system. Response spectrum analysis was used to model and analyze the buildings. The time periods, base shear, story shears, displacements, drifts, and column forces of each building were compared. The results showed that the beam-slab building performed better seismically, with lower drifts and accelerations compared to the flat slab building. The alternate flat-beam slab building performance was between the other two but closer to the beam-slab building. The flat slab building had significantly higher drifts and required columns
Nonlinear fe modelling of anchorage bond in reinforced concreteeSAT Journals
Abstract The transfer of forces from the surrounding concrete to the reinforcing bars in reinforced concrete (RC) can be influenced by several parameters. In this paper an attempt has been made to study the influence of specimen geometry, bar diameter, strength of concrete, lateral confinement and embedment length on the bond properties of concrete. The embedment length of the bar was varied between 50mm and 400mm by varying the diameter of the bar, strength of concrete and lateral confinement. The different bar diameters of 16, 20 and 25mm were selected along with three different concrete strengths of 25, 40 and 65MPa. The specimens with the above parameters were modeled by using a nonlinear finite element analysis package. It has been found that for the same geometry, the specimens with small bond length exhibited high bond strength. With the range of bar diameters considered the bond strength of concrete decreases as the diameter of the bar increases. The splitting failure has been observed in unconfined concrete, while the pullout failure was predominant when the concrete laterally confined. In case of large embedment length, the post peak plateau is prolonged with small diameter bars when compared to the large diameter bars. The descending branch of the bond stress-slip response with large diameter bars has been found to be steep. Keywords: Bond Stress, FE Analysis, Embedment Length, Confinement, Bar Diameter, Pull-out Specimens.

Comparison of Mesh Type Seismic Retrofitting for Masonry Structureschali090
The tremendous loss of life that resulted in the aftermath of recent earthquakes in developing countries is mostly due to the collapse of non-engineered building structures. It has been observed that these buildings cannot withstand the lateral loads imposed by an earthquake and often fails, in a brittle manner. This underscores the urgency to find simple and economic solutions to reinforce these buildings. Different conventional retrofitting techniques are available to increase the strength and/or ductility of unreinforced masonry walls. Recent years, several researches work on mesh type retrofitting for masonry structures to delay or prevent the collapse of buildings and reduce the number of lives lost during devastating earthquake events. This paper reviews and discusses the state-of-the-art on seismic retrofitting of masonry walls with emphasis on the mesh type retrofitting techniques include retrofitting procedures, cost, improvement in structural performance and limitations.

Seismic Analysis on Bare Frame, Infilled Frame and Soft Story RC Framed Build...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) framed buildings with different configurations through computer modeling and simulation. It compares the seismic performance of a bare frame building, an infilled frame building where the spaces between columns and beams are filled with masonry, a building with an open ground floor ("soft story"), and a building with open ground and first floors. The analysis found that the infilled frame performed best, with the highest base shear, natural frequency, and lowest story drift and time period. The bare frame performed worst. The soft story and two-story open configurations performed better than the bare frame but worse than the infilled frame. Infilled frames are therefore most effective at resisting earthquake forces compared to other

This document summarizes an article from the ACI Structural Journal about an experimental study on the shear deformations of slender reinforced concrete walls under seismic loading. The study examined data from 34 quasi-static cyclic tests of slender walls available in literature. It found that for walls where the shear transfer mechanism did not significantly degrade, the ratio of shear to flexural deformations remained approximately constant over the entire range of imposed displacements. For walls where the shear transfer did degrade, the ratio of shear to flexural deformations increased. The study proposed a simple model to estimate the ratio of shear to flexural deformations for walls where the shear transfer did not degrade significantly.
This document describes a study comparing the behavior of buildings with solid shear walls and coupled shear walls. Coupled shear walls are made of wall piers connected by coupling beams. The study analyzes buildings with varying depths of coupling beams and heights to determine the critical slenderness ratio of the coupling beam that provides a response similar to a solid shear wall building. The analysis was performed using ETABS software and found that the performance of buildings with coupled shear walls depends on the depth of the coupling beam. Each building design requires a specific critical slenderness ratio for the coupling beam.
Study on Behaviour of Rc Structure with Infill Walls Due to Seismic LoadsIRJET Journal

Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence
