Evaluation of Multistorey RC Buildings with Openings on Sloping Ground

Abstract

Base isolation tool has been extensively implemented for structure protection from seismic. It reduces the seismic demand rather than increasing the earthquake resistance capacity of the structure. In this present study ten storey building models with central openings (10%, 20% and 35%) on sloping ground 11.3o is considered for modelling. The models with fixed base and base isolated tools at base considered by using equivalent static analysis has been done as per IS 1893 (Part 1): 2002. And also pushover analysis has been done. Time period, base shear, displacement and storey drift results were discussed by using equivalent static and response spectrum method.
