Capacity Spectrum Method for RC Building with Cracked and Uncracked SectionIOSR Journals
one of the most widespread procedures for the assessment of building behavior, due to earthquake, is the Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM). In the scope of this procedure, capacity of the structure compares with the demands of earthquake ground motion on the structure. The capacity of the structure is represented by a nonlinear force-displacement curve, referred to as a pushover curve. The base shear forces and roof displacements are converted to equivalent spectral accelerations and spectral displacements, respectively, by means of coefficients that represent effective modal masses and modal participation factors. These spectral values define the capacity spectrum. The demands of the earthquake ground motion are represented by response spectra. A graphical construction that includes both capacity and demand spectra, results in an intersection of the two curves that estimates the performance of the structure to the earthquake. In this study, for determination of the performance levels, G+10 R.C.C. Building with cracked and uncracked section were taken. The structural Capacity of cracked and uncracked section compared with performance point value, which shows the structural capacity of building having cracked section is lesser than the uncracked section. Different modeling issues were analyzed to study the effect on Capacity of the structure with cracked and uncracked section for different position of Shear wall.
Assessing Uncertainty of Pushover Analysis to Geometric ModelingIDES Editor
Pushover Analysis a popular tool for seismic
performance evaluation of existing and new structures and is
nonlinear Static procedure where in monotonically increasing
loads are applied to the structure till the structure is unable
to resist the further load .During the analysis, whatever the
strength of concrete and steel is adopted for analysis of
structure may not be the same when real structure is
constructed and the pushover analysis results are very sensitive
to material model adopted, geometric model adopted, location
of plastic hinges and in general to procedure followed by the
analyzer. In this paper attempt has been made to assess
uncertainty in pushover analysis results by considering user
defined hinges and frame modeled as bare frame and frame
with slab modeled as rigid diaphragm and results compared
with experimental observations. Uncertain parameters
considered includes the strength of concrete, strength of steel
and cover to the reinforcement which are randomly generated
and incorporated into the analysis. The results are then
compared with experimental observations.

The Pushover Analysis from basics - Rahul LeslieRahul Leslie
Pushover analysis has been in the academic-research arena for quite long. The papers published in this field usually deals mostly with proposed improvements to the approach, expecting the reader to know the basics of the topic... while the common structural design practitioner, not knowing the basics, is left out from participating in those discussions. Here I’m making an effort to bridge that gap by explaining the Pushover analysis, from basics, in its simplicity.

Pushover is a static-nonlinear analysis method where a structure is subjected to gravity loading and a monotonic displacement-controlled lateral load pattern which continuously increases through elastic and inelastic behavior until an ultimate condition is reached. Lateral load may represent the range of base shear induced by earthquake loading, and its configuration may be proportional to the distribution of mass along building height, mode shapes, or another practical means.
The static pushover analysis is becoming a popular tool for seismic performance evaluation of existing and new structures. The expectation is that the pushover analysis will provide adequate information on seismic demands imposed by the design ground motion on the structural system and its components. The purpose of the paper is to summarize the basic concepts on which the pushover analysis can be based, assess the accuracy of pushover predictions, identify conditions under which the pushover will provide adequate information and, perhaps more importantly, identify cases in which the pushover predictions will be inadequate or even misleading.
The Manual explains the concept of transferring the load from the super structure up to the soil throughout Piles, which has a capacity of (End bearing, and Skin friction). It illustrates the steps needed to produce a full and safe foundation for your Super Structure.

Our initial idea was to film our extract in black and white, we were rather sceptical of this before our presentation as we weren't sure how our audience would recieve a film in black and white as there aren't many films in the modern age made in black and white but the feedback that we got from our teachers was very positive for our black and white idea and we have now decided to develope this idea and film it in black and white.
In our extract the majority of it is two characters sitting on a bench having a conversation when we presented this idea Mr. Alison pointed out that we have to be very careful on how we filmed it and we have to make sure that it is pleasing to the eye and that it looks like a real film and not just two people talking on a bench.
We were also advised that the extract would have to be written well in order for the story to make sense and for it to be interesting and last for two minutes.

Mathematical analysis of section properties of a platform integrated with veh...Dr.Vikas Deulgaonkar
The present work depicts mathematical behavior of a vehicle mounted platform/frame integrated with chassis structure in terms of plane stresses and plane strains for non-uniform loads. The load type considered in present work is concentrated load for which the mathematical model is formulated. A different type of combination of longitudinal and cross members in platform/frame design is formulated. The dimensions of platform members are determined using IS standards. After analysis of all possible combinations of longitudinal and cross members present design is anticipated. Section properties of longitudinal and cross members of the platform are determined & deduction of bending stress and shear force based on the load pattern are the fundamental steps in design and analysis of platform structure. The peculiarity of this analysis is the calculation of combined section modulus of three members. These are evaluated by excel programs developed indigenously.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.

21. This constraint is used to simulate the condition when there is wide column. Due to the presence of the wide column the actual span of the beam is not the distance between the nodes but the distance between the outer edge of the wide column. So when there are wide columns then the actual stiffness of the beam will be more then when it is taken from node to node. On clicking Master-Slave relation we get the following dialog box. The Master Slave concept enables the creation of rigid links, using either the ‘Equal Degree of Freedom’ or the ‘Equal Displacement’ type of relationship Master Slave

44. Soft Storey Effect Soft Storeys can be defined. User should enter the factor, by which the end actions for all the members of this soft storey need to be modified. Due to this the beams at the upper and lower level, as well as the columns in between these two levels, will be designed for the elemental end forces obtained in the analysis multiplied by the factor, which you have specified. By default the factor is taken as 2.5
45. Facility to consider Vertical Seismic loads, for all the elements marked as Horizontal Cantilevers. The total seismic weight W, acting on the cantilever beam is given as, W = [Sum of all Elemental Dead loads] + [ (Live load reduction factor at the set floor level) * (sum of all Elemental Live Loads)] + [Dead load reaction of Cross Beam] + [(Live load reduction factor) * (Live load reaction of Cross Beam) ] This load is assumed to act at the center of the cantilever beam. The total design vertical seismic force is given as V = (10/3) * Ah * Total Seismic weight However, declaring these elements as cantilevers, will not affect the analysis results at all, and the cantilevering effect will be taken into account only at the design level.
