ABSTRACT
This Thesis present the importance of shear wall frame structures in
multi-storey building over bare frame structures.
In this work seismic analysis is presented with two cases first one is
bare frame structures and second one is shear wall structure.
In this work seismic analysis is presented with two cases first one is
bare frame structures and second one is shear wall structure.
In this work a unsymmetrical plan is selected for seismic analysis in
ZONE-III. This analysis produce the results such as maximum lateral
displacements, storey drift index and time period. The analysis is
completely done by response spectrum method using E-TABS 9.7.4
software packages.
LITREATURE REVIEW
M.S. Aainawala and Dr. P.S.Pajgade (July2014)[1] have described the
earthquake loading on different multi-storey building of different height such
as G+12,G+25,G+38. These building are located in zone-II, zone-III, zone-IV
and zone-V. They have done comparative analysis between lateral
displacement and storey drift index of different models. They have ovserved
that multi-storey R.C.C. buildings with shear wall is economical as compared
to without shear wall.
M.D. Kevadkar, P.B. Kodag (May-June2013)[2] have discussed RC building
with three models , model-1 is analyzed using simple beam column structure,
model-2 is analyzed using shear wall structure and model-3 is analyzed using
bracing system. Complete analysis is done on E-TABS software packages.
They have taken all the models in the most severe zone of earthquake. They
concluded that X-type bracing system is more efficient to take inter storey
drift and other parameters compare with shear wall system.
Tarun Shrivastava et al (February-2015) They give shear wall frame importance in multi-
storey building subjected to wind loading. They discussed different cases with changing
different position of shear wall. They concluded that shear wall providing as wall frame
gives maximum lateral stiffness and rigidness to the structure.
P.P Chandurkar and Dr. P.S. Pajgade (June 2013) [1] have discussed the seismic analysis
of 10-storey buildings with different models in ZONE-II, ZONE-III, ZONE-IV, ZONE-V using
E-TABS v9.5.0. They have taken 4- models, bare frame and dual strucutral system.
Parameters such as horizontal displacement, storey drift and total cost reuired for
ground floor are calculated in bvoth the case replacing column with shear Wall.
Anuj Chandiwala (Dec.2012)[1] has describes the analysis and design the critical section
is suitably done to get economical concrete members sizes and optimum steel
consumption in the member. He also described seismic analysis of a particular member,
by taking different lateral load resisting system. He also find the most appropriate
position of shear wall in multi-storey building.
Prof. S.S.Patil et al (March 2013) [2] introduces a seismic analysis of high-rise building
using software packages (staad.pro). He prepared some different models of different
configuration and analyze the structure with staad.pro software packages. March 2013.
Dipendu Bhunia et al (2011) [3] have presented the elastic and elasto-
plastic behaviors. He considered the fifteen storey problem subjected to
earthquake loading and comparative analysis by staad.pro 2004 and SAP
V10.0.5 (2000), he has also computed shear forces, bending moment and
storey drift in both the above cases.
INTRODUCTION
In this thesis work an analytical study of G+13 storey
building in zone –III is presented with investigations
which is analyzed by taking two different models for
determining the different parameters such as- base shear,
storey shear, storey drift index, time period, frequency by
response spectrum method using E-TABS 9.7.4 .
Objective of Studies
To analyze the building as per Indian standard code IS-
1893-2002 part-1 for earthquake resistant structure, using
E-TABS 9.7.4
Dynamic analysis of the Building using response
spectrum method .
To get most efficient lateral load resisting system.
Problem formulation
In this thesis work analysis of G+13 Multistoried unsymmetrical planned
building is considered . In this work two models are considered which
are as follws-
(i). Bare frame structure.(Beam Column framed structure)
(ii). Shear wall frame structure
Analysis of whole problem is completely done E-TABS 9.7.4 and gives
comparative result between different parameters such as storey drift,
lateral displacement, and time period ,frequency and base shear and
storey shear.
Details of size and geometry of various structural components for both
framing are shown in table no.1.1
Basic Wind and seismic loading condition for both system are shown in
table.

CONCLUSION
The result showing maximum lateral displacement in model-
2 is 0.5mm and in model-1 it is 39.5mm ,these results shows
that model-2 is more stiff against the lateral loads.
In model-2, about 98.% less displacement than model-1.
In Model-2 the storey drift index is 74% less than model -1
which is very important in multi-storey building preventing
the damage of internal partition.
It is concluded that shear wall frame structure is more
reliable against lateral displacements and storey drift index.
The maximum lateral displacement at top in the case of bare
frame structure is about 94% greater than shear wall structure.
At top of bare frame structure system is having about 90%
greater storey drift index than shear wall system.
All the values of storey drift index is in safe limit according to
IS 1893(part-1)-2002.
The time period for bare frame is greater than to shear wall
structure. Difference in both the system time period is about
92.22%.
Natural frequency of shear wall structure is 93% greater than
to bare frame structure.
From the above results it is obtained that shear wall structures
are more safe compare with bare frame in the case of worst
loading.
