Modelling of 25 storey building with the specified properties using ETABS

Q1.

AIM:

The aim is to design and analysis a 25 story building model in etabs .

material used :

Structural Element Sizes

  • Beams : 300 × 400 mm
  • Columns : 800 × 800 mm
  • Slab : 150 mm thick

Material Properties

  • Grade of Concrete : M30
  • Grade of Steel Reinforcement Bars : Fe 415

Loading

  • Dead Load on beams from infill wall : 10 kN/m (Let us assume the same for roof floor in view of parapet)
  • Live load on floor : 3 kN/m2 (Let us assume the same for roof floor)
Criteria Desirable solution Exercise results
Fundamental translationalnatural period X- direction 4.4 second 3.7
Y- direction 4.2 seccond 3.5
Torsional irregularity

IS 1893 - 2016(part-1) table 5

Torsional mode time period should be lesser than X and Y direction time periods yes
Vertical irregularity IS 1893 - 2016(part-1) table 6 First three modes together should contribute at least 65% in mass participation factor in each principal direction yes
Fundamental lateral natural periods in two principal plane direction are away from each others by at least 10% yes
Inter - storey drift IS 1893-2016(part -1 ) clause - 7.11.1.1 Storey drift shall not exceed 0.004 times the stroey height for base shear with no load factors(4*10^-3) yes
