Abstract

The high seismic areas may be susceptible to the severe damage in structures. In the seismic design shear walls act as major earthquake resisting members. Now a day, shear wall in R.C. structure are most popular system to resist lateral load due to earthquake, wind, blast etc. Positioning of shear wall has influence on the overall behavior of the building. For effective and efficient performance of building it is essential to position shear wall in an ideal location. Story drift and lateral displacements are the critical issues in seismic design of buildings. This paper presents the response of building with different positioning of shear wall by Equivalent Static Method using IS 1893 (PART – I): 2002. Six different Model of G+8 RCC building, one with no shear wall and other five models with different position of shear wall which is subjected to earthquake load in zone V has been studied. Test results including story drift and story deflections are presented and get effective lateral load resisting system.
