Project 1_Comparative study of different storey buildings for Seismic forces

Criteria Model Analysis result Conclusion
Effect of stiffness on time period Building 5 (10 storey with varying column size ) 2.53 s Increase in the load in the top floor is directionally proposinal to the Time period
Building 6 (10 stories with uniform column size) 1.139s
Effect of stiffness on time period Building 7 (25 stroies with varying column size) 4.72 s
Building 8 (25 stroies with uniform column size) 5.15 s
Effect of stiffness on time period Building 9 (25 stroies with 3.3 kN/m^2 imposed load) 5.2 s
Building 10 (25 stroies with 3.6 kN/m^2 imposed load) 5.3 s
Effect of stiffness on time period Building 1 (2 storey ) 0.85 s
Building 2 (5 storey ) 1.58 s
Building 6 (5 storey ) 1.13 s
Building 8 (25 storey ) 5.15 s
Criteria Model Analysis result Conclusion
Effect of column orientation on time period Building 2 (all floors column size 400*400) 1.58 s The deflection is similar
Building 3 ( All floors column size 550*300) oriented in X - direction 1.75 Both direction diplacments are similar
Building 4 ( All floors columns size 300*550) oriented in Y direction 1.71 s Deflection is higher in the y direction
criteria Model Analysis result Conclusion
Effect of flexural stiffness of structural elements on mode shape Building 2 Flexural stiffness of beams close to nil ( Zero inertia) 3.91 s
Full Flexural stiffness of beams ( Regular) 1.58 s
criteria Model Case Analysis result Conclusion
Effect of axial stiffness of vertical members on mode shapes Building 7 Axial cross section for columns is close to nil (Zero axial area) 5.6 s
Full axial cross section for columns( regular ) 4.72 s
