Project 1_Comparative study of different storey buildings for Seismic forces

Factors influencing the dynamic characteristics of a building

Factors influencing the Natural Period of a building

Factors influencing the Mode shape of oscillations

Objectives of the challenge:-

• Know how to extract different seismic responses for a structure.
• How to easily alter certain properties in an ETABS model.
• Know the factors influencing the dynamic characteristics of building.
• Know the factors influencing time period of building.
• Know the factors influencing mode shape of building.

Deliverables:-

• 10 ETABS models (preferably in .e2k format exported)& All relevant screenshots of the procedure.
  Comparison of analysis results for each of the criteria.
• Identifying the reason for influences and reporting them (preferably in a tabulation).
