COMPARATIVE PUSHOVER ANALYSIS OF RCC AND COMPOSITE HIGH RISE BUILDING FRAME (G+15) BY USING ETABS

Reinforced concrete is the material of choice for the majority of building constructions.This choice is based on a number of factors, including the accessibility of the necessary components, the expertise of the builders, and the practicality of the design rules.Due to its dangerous formwork and high dead load, R.C.C. is no longer cost-effective.On the other hand, composite construction is an innovative idea in the building sector.It may be economically prohibitive to wait the building of each level while concrete columns are cast due to the usage of new composite techniques that enable the assembly of multi-story structural frames to continue at speed.Composite beam-columns have been widely employed for building in Japan due to their excellent earthquake resistant qualities, which have been known for a long time.In order to promote the adoption of this effective mixed-use building method, it was vital to establish seismic design requirements for commonly used structural systems in India.This project presents a comparison of several construction characteristics.This research examines the use of bracings and infill walls to mitigate the effects of seismic loading.With the use of RCC and composite columns, ETABS was used to study a G+15 residential multi-story building's response spectrum, equivalent static technique, and push-over analysis.A total of twenty-four models are tested in a range of seismic zones and soil types.Values for variables such as base shear, time period, frequency, storey bending, and storey torsion are among the outcomes that are evaluated for these twenty-four models.
