To Generate seismic loading based on IS code and to run the analysis using TSD

1)

AIM:- To generate seismic loading based IS codal provisions and zone II. Any other data you can assume and input accordingly

INTRODUCTION:- Seismic load are the earthquake load on the structure which acts from ground and transfer to the top the building. The Structure must be designed in such a manner to resist the seismic force. IS 1893 part 1 are followed for seismic loadcase.

PROCEDURE:-

  • Select Seismic Load (Seismic wizard) ribbon from Load tab.

  • Select Code spectra for analysis procedure. Click Next.

  • Structural Details under base information is automatically inputed.
  • Set the seismic zone to 2 and site class to 2 as shown below.
  • Importance factor and percentage damping is obtained from Table 6 and 3 respectively of IS 1893-1 and zone factor from Table 2

  • No structural irregularity in the structure as mentioned in Table 4 and 5.

  • Use approxmiate fundamental period. Set RC MRF building without any masonry infill in both direction.

  • Set structure type to seismic force resisting system in both direction.

  • Select all the loadcases and set factor for imposed load to 25% for refered from table 8

  • Set allowable storey drift factor as 0.004. Click finish.

  • Delete all previously generated combinations.

  • Select the combinations to be generated.

  • Select the load combination from load tab to check the combination generated.

  • Click on generate to replace only combinations generated by this run.

  • Click finish.
  • Therefore, load combinations are generated.

  • To Generate seismic loading based IS codal provisions and zone II. Any other data you can assume and input accordingly
  • Tools used -
  • Load.
  • Loadcases.
  • Seismic wizard.
  • Seismic load.
  • Process -
  • 1. Open the file where we have the structure on which we have to apply the seismic load.
  • 2. Now click on loads tab and select load cases
  • 3. Now create the new load with name as seismic load.
  • 4. Seismic wizard dialog box appears.
  • 5. Now select and fill all the required parameter suitable for structure.
  • 6. At last click on finish button.
  • 7. Now we can check loads in the loadcases and apply them on the structure so we can use those for analysis of the structure.
  • Result -
  • First open the file where we have applied the seismic load
  • 2. Now click on analyze tab.
  • 3. Select 1st order linear.
  • 4. Now select loading dialog box appears.
  • 5. In the dialog box select all the required loadings and click ok.
  • 6. Now the results tab will open apply bending moment, shear force and displacement to check the structure.
  • The axial loads are correct as they are decreasing with increase in height of structure.
  • The moment major force is also correct as all beam types are selected correctly.
  • This is deflection is can be decreaded by increasing the grading of concrete in the columns.
  • The deflection in the stair case is more so supports and grading of the concrete sholud be increased.
  • 7. Now we can obtain the report data by clicking on model and results.
  • Results -
  • Here report data sheet we can see all the members are approved and they pass the seismic load.

RESULT:- Hence, seismic loading are generated based IS codal provisions and zone II.

2)

AIM:- To run the analysis and to summarize the analysis results

INTRODUCTION:- Analyical diagrams like Bending moment, Shear force, Axial force and deflection are used for the study of behaviour of each member of the building.

PROCEDURE:-

  • Go to analyse, under settings check modification factor for concrete as 1.

  • Run under 1st order analysis. Select all load combinatons.

  • After run analysis, the status shows no error.
  • Expand the overall displacement, check the maximum positive displacement for both strength and service in solver view.
  • Highlight the node for displacement along z axis to check maximum displacement for the member as shown

  • In results view, under results select deflections for different load combinations. Therefore, maximum deflection is shown in load combination 3

DEFLECTION DUE TO GRAVITY ON THE STRUCTURE

  • Select the frame 3 from project window, to check the deflection diagram.

DEFLECTION DUE TO GRAVITY

  • The deflection due to gravity in picture above is correct.
  • But the deflection at the cantilever ends are high.
  • Similarly, check for different load combinations
  • Deflection due to wind is shown below.

Axial force

  • In result view, select Axial force from results tab.
  • Maximum axial force for column is shown for load combinations 3.

  • Select the frame 3 from project window, to check the axial force diagram.
  • The axial force is acting maximum at bottom of the column which is correct.
  • Similarly, check for different load combinations

AXIAL FORCE FOR GRAVITY LOAD

MAXIMUM AXIAL FORCE FOR LOAD COMBINATION 3

Bending Moment

  • For frame 3, select moment major from results tab.

MAXIMUM BENDING MOMENT IS SHOWN IN LOAD COMBINATION 3

  • Bending moment at the end of the cantilever beam is 0 which is correct.
  • Similarly, check for diffenent load conditions such as wind and seismic.

BENDING MOMENT FOR WIND LOAD CONDITION

MAXIMUM BENDING MOMENT ON THE STRUCTURE FOR LOAD COMBINATION 3

Shear force

  • For frame 3, select shear major from results tab.
  • Check shear major for different load conditions and combinations.

MAXIMUM SHEAR FORCE IN LOAD COMBINATION 3

SHEAR FORCE FOR WIND LOAD CONDITION

SHEAR FORCE FOR SEISMIC LOAD COMBINATION

RESULT:- Hence, summarized the analysis results obtained after run analysis.
