Earthquake is one of the major natural disasters in the world. It considered that. The damage caused due to the collapse of buildings during the earthquake is huge. The main reason for this calamity is the extirpation of manmade structures. The structure’s lack of lateral rigidity is the first reason for its destruction during an earthquake. multi-story buildings need a seismic motion for their stability. Some endeavors have been done for finding the best method to make multi-story buildings strong and stable against earthquake forces. Provision of shear wall is one of the main options to provide diaphragm, which provides lateral strength for high-rise and multi-story structures. Shear walls have proper characteristics such as stiffness and strength, which can support building to resist high lateral and vertical loads. This paper aimed to find out the optimum positioning of the shear wall in a multi-story building on the sloped ground. A reinforced concrete (RC) framed building of (G+5) story on sloping area subjected to earthquake loading in zone V is considered. The analyses and design comparison is carried out using STAAD Pro structural design software. Different cases of the shear wall at various locations of the considered building have been analyzed.
The buildings located on the sloped ground are irregular. Therefore, Prone to hard destruction when acted by earthquake forces. These types of buildings have different stiffness and mass in the horizontal and vertical directions. As result, the centre of rigidity and centre of mass does not coincide on a different floor and cause to suffer high damage due to irregularity during an earthquake. Because it is considered that, the seismic performance of the building in a sloped area is much more different from the plain area. Present study deal with the Earthquake manner of the G+5 story building with a shear wall in a hilly area. The fundamental aims are to; investigate the performance of G+5 story building on the sloped area for different positioning of the shear wall, and to understand the impressiveness of SW on a sloped area. In this paper, G+5 story buildings with and without shear walls resting on the sloped ground are observed. Modelling and analysis are done by considering the response spectrum with the assistance of STAAD Pro and different configurations of a shear wall compared with considering story displacement, maximum bending moment, base shear, and axial forces.
