This state-of-the-art paper discusses nonlinear dynamic analysis of reinforced concrete building structures. Nonlinear analysis of a reinforced concrete building is difficult (a) because inelastic deformation is not confined at critical sections, but spreads throughout the structure; and (b) because stiffness of the reinforced concrete is dependent on a strain history. The paper reviews the behaviour of reinforced concrete members and their subassemblies observed during laboratory tests. Then different hysteresis and analytical models of reinforced concrete members are reviewed, and their application to the simulation of building model behaviour is discussed.

Shear-wall dominant multistorey reinforced concrete structures, constructed by using a special tunnel
form technique are commonly built in countries facing a substantial seismic risk, such as Chile, Japan,
Italy and Turkey. In spite of their high resistance to earthquake excitations, current seismic code provisions
including the Uniform Building Code (International Conference of Building Ocials, Whittier,
CA, 1997) and the Turkish Seismic Code (Specication for Structures to be Built in Disaster Areas,
Ankara, Turkey, 1998) present limited information for their design criteria. In this study, consistency
of equations in those seismic codes related to their dynamic properties are investigated and it is observed
that the given empirical equations for prediction of fundamental periods of this specic type of
structures yield inaccurate results. For that reason, a total of 80 dierent building congurations were
analysed by using three-dimensional nite-element modelling and a set of new empirical equations was
proposed. The results of the analyses demonstrate that given formulas including new parameters provide
accurate predictions for the broad range of dierent architectural congurations, roof heights and
shear-wall distributions, and may be used as an ecient tool for the implicit design of these structures.

Abstract- It is well-established fact that shear walls are quite effective in lateral load resistance of low-rise to
medium-rise reinforced concrete buildings. Restriction in the architectural design by the presence of the shear
walls may contribute to discourage the engineers from adopting the shear walls. Due to this a new concept of
providing storey deep and bay wide discrete staggered shear wall panels have been introduced.
In this study, the effect of various configurations of shear walls on high-rise structure is analysed. The drift
and inter-storey drift of the structure in the following configurations of shear wall panels is studied and is
compared with that of bare frame: (1) Conventional shear walls. (2) Alternate arrangement of shear walls. (3)
Diagonal arrangement of shear walls. (4) Zigzag arrangement of shear walls. (5) Influence of lift core walls.
Of the configurations studied, the zigzag shear wall configuration is found to be better than the other systems
studied in controlling the response to earthquake loading. The diagonal configuration is found to be having
significant role in controlling the response of structures to earthquake.

Dynamic Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Building with Plan Irregularities
Author: Mohammed yousuf , P.M. shimpale | Size: 867 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering Website: www.ijetae.com (ISSN 2250-2459, ISO 9001:2008 Certified Journal, Volume 3, Issue 9, September 2013) | Year: 2013 | pages: 07
Abstractβ The main objective of earthquake engineering is
to design and build a structure in such a way that the damage
to the structure and its structural component during an
earthquake is minimized. This paper aims towards the
dynamic analysis of reinforced concrete building with plan
irregularity. Four models of G+5 building with one symmetric
plan and remaining irregular plan have been taken for the
investigation. The analysis of R.C.C. building is carried out
with the FE based software ETABS 9.5. Estimation of
response such as; lateral forces, base shear, storey drift, storey
shear is carried out. Four cross sectional variation in columns
section are considered for studying effectiveness in resisting
lateral forces. The paper also deals with the effect of the
variation of the building plan on the structural response
building. Dynamic responses under prominent earthquake,
related to IS 1893β2002(part1) have been carried out. In
dynamic analysis; Response Spectrum method is used. The
CQC (complete quadratic combination) method has also been
employed for each model for estimation of dynamic response
for 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% damping and dynamic responses
were compared.

Solution of Shear Wall Location in Multi-Storey Building
Author: Anshuman. S , Dipendu Bhunia , Bhavin Ramjiyani | Size: 457 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Volume 2, No 2, 2011 | Year: 2011 | pages: 14
Shear wall systems are one of the most commonly used lateral-load resisting systems in highrise buildings. Shear walls have very high in-plane stiffness and strength, which can be used to simultaneously resist large horizontal loads and support gravity loads, making them quite advantageous in many structural engineering applications. There are lots of literatures
available to design and analyse the shear wall. However, the decision about the location of shear wall in multi-storey building is not much discussed in any literatures. In this paper, therefore, main focus is to determine the solution for shear wall location in multi-storey building based on its both elastic and elasto-plastic behaviours. An earthquake load is calculated and applied to a building of fifteen stories located in zone IV. Elastic and elasto-plastic analyses were performed using both STAAD Pro 2004 and SAP V 10.0.5 (2000) software packages. Shear forces, bending moment and story drift were computed in both the cases and location of shear wall was established based upon the above computations.

Shear walls play a dominant role in the static and dynamic analysis and design of low-rise timber buildings. Shear wall behavior is often difficult to describe. For example, low-rise timber buildings have shear walls made of lumber framing and various sheathing materials. The loaddeformation
plot of a shear wall, when subjected to horizontal loads, is
nonlinear. The analysis of a shear wall building thus requires either full-scale test or nonlinear analysis. Full-scale tests do demonstrate true nonlinear behavior; however, they are often too time consuming and expensive for the number of replications necessary for a statisticallyvalid study. Nonlinear analysis often involves mathematical complexity and instability such that limiting assumptions are necessary to simplify the problems. This study describes a mechanical model which simulates the nonlinear behavior of a shear wall and aids in the construction of inexpensive models of entire shear wall buildings. Static and dynamic measurements obtained using these models can provide reliable results for shear wall buildings. Tests on these wall models will be useful to: (1) Observe nonlinear behavior of the "parent"structure without having to conduct fullscale tests; (2) check the accuracy of linear analysis; and (3) verify the results of nonlinear analysis.

Simulation of the shaking table test of a seven-story shear wall building
Author: Paolo Martinelli , Β and Filip C. Filippou | Size: 623 KB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING AND STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS Earthquake Engng Struct. Dyn. 2009; 38:587β607 Published online 13 February 2009 in Wiley InterScience. DOI: 10.1002/eqe.897 | Year: 2009 | pages: 21
This paper presents the simulation of the nonlinear dynamic response of a full-scale seven-story reinforced
concrete shear wall shaking table specimen under base excitations representing four earthquake records
of increasing intensity. The study was motivated by the participation in the blind prediction contest of
the shaking table specimen organized by University of California at San Diego (UCSD), NEES, and
Portland Cement Association (PCA). Owing to the time constraints of the contest a relatively simple
two-dimensional (2d) model was used for the shear wall specimen. In this model, the shear wall was
represented by 2d beamβcolumn elements with fiber discretization of the cross-section that account for
the interaction of the axial force with the bending moment. Upon conclusion of the contest, the available
experimental measurements permitted a thorough examination of the analytical results. While the measured
data confirmed the excellent accuracy of the model predictions, some limitations also became apparent.
The paper addresses the benefits and limitations of the selected modeling strategy and investigates the
sensitivity of this type of model to parameter selection.
