“FORCE-DISPLACEMENT TRADE OFF” OF RCC BUILDING LOCATED AT VARIOUS SEISMIC ZONES AND SITE CONDITION ADOPTING TIME-HISTORY ANALYSIS
Abstract: Earthquake-resistant or aseismic design are considered to protect buildings to some or greater extent from earthquakes. The force-displacement trade off of structures located in various seismic zones are different in nature depending on intensity of earthquake. No structure can be fully immune to damage from earthquake, the vulnerability can be reduced for safety and durability. The force-displacement behavior of a particular structure can be modified to withstand seismic occurrence preventing …

Analysis and Design of Cantilevered Steel False Work Systems Subjected to Earthquake Loads
Abstract: Construction of buildings with non-typical floors has been always problematic in extending the false work all over the height to support non-regular cantilevered slabs extending from upper floors. Cantilevered frames supporting formwork systems with no need for extending the false work along the height of the building have been recently designed in previous studies. However, the need to design such cantilevers in order to withstand dynamic loads has emerged. Within …
