Seismic response analysis of adjacent rc structures considering seismic pounding effect
Abstract: As we know there is increase in construction of High-rise structures in developed cities. These structures are subjected to earthquake forces. Due to populated areas the buildings are constructed very closely to each other in order to utilize the entire property area. In such conditions there is possibility of occurring seismic pounding which will cause greater damage to the adjacent structures in addition to the damage caused by the earthquake. …

Review of Diagrid and Conventional Frame Systems for Modern Building Design
Abstract: The demand for high-rise buildings in modern cities has accelerated the development of structural systems that balance safety, efficiency, and architectural innovation. Conventional moment-resisting frames, though widely adopted, often become inefficient in tall structures due to higher material consumption and greater lateral displacements under seismic and wind loading. Diagrid systems, defined by their diagonally inclined members forming triangulated grids, provide an alternative approach with enhanced lateral stiffness, reduced drift, and …

Steel Ductile Detailing of Moment Resisting Frames for Pre-engineered Buildings
Abstract: Long span structures with no interrupting column are necessary in any type of industrial structures and pre-engineered buildings (PEB) satisfies this need along with less time and cost as compared to conventional structures. This methodology is adaptable not only due to its quality pre-designing and prefabrication, but also due to its light weight and economical construction. The concept includes the technique of providing the best possible section according to the …

Seismic Response of Multistoreyed Building for Different Stiffness Conditions
Abstract: Many buildings in the present scenario have irregular configurations both in elevation and plan. This in future may subject to devastating earthquakes. It is necessary to identify the performance of the structures to withstand against disaster for both new and existing buildings. Now a days, openings in the floors is common for many reasons like stair cases, lighting architectural etc., these openings in diaphragms cause stresses at discontinues joints with …

Structural Design of Offshore Structures: A Review of Indian and International Standards
Abstract: Offshore structures—including fixed steel jackets, topside modules, offshore wind turbine support structures, and floating systems—are designed to withstand combined gravity, environmental, seismic, and operational loads under substantial uncertainty and limited access for inspection and repair. Structural design practice has historically relied on internationally recognized standards, particularly the American Petroleum Institute’s API RP 2A, the International Organization for Standardization’s ISO 19900 series, including ISO 19902 for fixed steel structures, and Det …
