Analysis of a Tall Structure Considering Lateral Load Resisting Members using Advance Analysis Tools

Authors(2) :-Prafull Kumar Yadav, Pratiksha Malviya

Nowadays using modern structural systems with specific capabilities, like Diagrid, is emerging around the world. In this Study a new resisting system, a combination of both Diagrid axial behavior and proper seismic performance of regular moment frames in tall buildings, named “Hybrid Diagrid” is presented. The scaled specimen of the suggested Hybrid system was built and tested using I.S. 1893-I:2002. The natural frequency and structural responses of the analytical model was updated with the real experimental results of 3-dimensional building frame. In order to compare its performance in comparison with the traditional Diagrid and moment frame systems, Dynamic analysis was carried out. Extensive analysis shows the efficient seismic responses and economical behavior of Hybrid Diagrid structure with respect to the other two systems using Analysis tool Staad.pro.
