Abstract:

The demand of irregular high rise building is increasing rapidly. The Indian Standards 1893-2002(I) recommends simple, regular and symmetric configuration from earthquake safety point of view for all high rise structure. The code also restricts Horizontal irregularities in the structure as these may result in enormous amount of force at various levels in the building. Therefore analysis of irregular building needs to be carried out. The objective of this paper to understand the variation in displacement and development of forces in selected columns due to placement of diaphragm at different level. The study takes into consideration of diaphragm and column. Five model of G+10 building is analysed with diaphragm at different level using STAAD Pro. Response of this model under earthquake loads is critically studied. Major finding of this study includes due to diaphragm, there is a significant increasing in displacement and forces in irregular and asymmetric structure as compare regular and symmetric structure.
