Abstract

Identifying the architectural problems in a building during earthquake. However due to the desire to create an aesthetic and functionally efficient structure, architects suggest wonderful and imaginative structures. But in practice more the irregularities, more difficult for the structure to resist earthquakes or lateral forces.

Taking Sahyadri College of Engineering and Management building as a case study, we try to bring out the major differences to vertical load carrying building to earthquake resistant buildings.

For the existing college building which comes under earthquake zone III and which are not designed as per the earthquake codes are then retrofitted with suitable methods.

To study the architectural problems in different geometrical structures and the solutions by STAAD-Pro using analysis results like ultimate load, ultimate moment, etc.

To introduce the principle of good earthquake resistant building practices.

To study the effect of shape of the structure on the overall seismic performance.

To study the portion of structure to be retrofitted if required.

The objective of design is the achievement of an acceptable probability that structures being designed will perform satisfactorily during their intended life even if earthquake occurs.
