Conceptual design of a building with columns and shear walls

1)

a b c

a) due to placing of shear wall in both direction equally is good

restraint of floor shrinkage : good

the lateral stiffness : good

the torsional one with respect to the vertical axis : good

the vertical reinforcement required for the same total flexural capacity at the base: yes

the static eccentricity : it is good

the system’s redundancy : proving in y direction required

foundation systems : very good

architectural constraints : good in safety

b) due to placing of shear wall in both direction and same position is good

restraint of floor shrinkage : good

the lateral stiffness : good

the torsional one with respect to the vertical axis : good

the vertical reinforcement required for the same total flexural capacity at the base: yes

the static eccentricity : it is good

the system’s redundancy : proving in y direction required

foundation systems : very good

architectural constraints : good in safety

c) due to placing of shear wall in both direction unequvally is not good much

restraint of floor shrinkage : oocurs

the lateral stiffness : week in y direction

the torsional one with respect to the vertical axis : occurs

the vertical reinforcement required for the same total flexural capacity at the base: yes

the static eccentricity : not good

the system’s redundancy : proving in y direction required

foundation systems : good in foundation but placing shear walls is not good

architectural constraints : proving sharwall in y direction good

2) placing of colums shound the staright in both direction

but in this case it is not observed when loads are acted in x and y direction the structure may nor resist

so we need to provide shear wall at required areas

shaer wall should be at c5,c6,c8,c9, to beam b7,b9,b3,b4,b6

3) for this shear wall should be provied and all edges in both direction and all centre in between colums

if loads are appied the load is not distrubuted equaly beacause the colums are not in stright position

if loads are acted from x direction the loads transfer to y direction to to irregular placing of colums and direction
