Conceptual design of a building with columns and shear walls

  • This plan totally unsuitable for heavy seismic zone areas.
  • In this plan, the interior columns are in unsymmetric.
  • The partition wall are provided through the base of beam, should support the lateral deformation due to the structure.
  • The interiors beams will supports the slab, then the lateral load resisting the failure due to earthquakes.
  • For this irregular columns in plan, there we provided the flat slabs, because its directly stay in a column centroidal axis.
  • For here, the beams at different locations is irregular in plan and are continuous and is disallowed to resist the seismic load in the region.
  • In this plan, the flat sab is more appropriate than a regular beam column junctions, because of as its provide support to the columns without any provision of the beam, which reduces the weight of the building and also helps in the ductility of the structure by indirectly.
  • for the solution of this structure, we provide the shear wall from the foundation of structure through vertical components, it should minimize the loss of sudden failure occur due to lateral force acting on structure.
