Abstract

The major purpose of this study is to analyze the single-bay RCC Framed building and its improvement techniques. Total number of 36 models were selected. The models are 4 bay, 6 bay, 8 bay and 10 bay each with 3 storey, 5 storey and 7 storey. The model types are (i)Without bracing and shear wall, (ii) With Bracing and (iii) with shear wall. All the model was analyzed using Etabs software. Response spectrum analyses was carried out as per NBC code. The analysis was performed to understand the seismic performance of the single bay RCC building and compare its performance with that of the single bay RCC building with bracing and the RCC building with shear wall. The result shows that the size structural member increases significantly with the increase in number of bays and number of storeys, Bracing effectively reduces drift and displacement along the bracing direction while increasing stiffness and reducing overturning moments. Shear wall shows more effective than Bracing in reducing the drift and displacement.

Keywords
