Analysis of Twisted Tall Structure Considering Lateral Load using ETABS

Authors(2) :-Zuber Ali Shah, Rahul Satbhaiya

This research presents the structural behavior of RCC twisted building subjected to dynamic loads. The comparative study between RCC twisted building is made. In a twisted tall building various rate of twist for RCC twisted building was analyzed. The different rate of twist as 10, 12.5 & 15 degrees at the center of the RCC twisted building was considered. The modelling and analysis is done using ETABS. Dead loads, live load, seismic load and wind loads are assigned for modelled structures and results obtained are plotted for parameters such as displacement, storey drift, time period and base shear. The analysis for twisted building is done for gravity loads, lateral load using Response spectrum method. The models are considered for Zone V & the analysis is done as per the Indian standard codal provisions. From the comparative study of RCC building under Dynamic loads for various angle of twist for storey it is concluded that RCC twisted building is efficient under seismic and wind load. 10 degree angle of twist is efficient compared to 12.5 & 15 degree of angle of twist.
