Application of Waste Oil as An Effective Construction Material with Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement

Abstract

Resistance of structures against earthquake plays an extensive role in construction industry. A structure should consist of strength, stability and ductility to accommodate both horizontal and vertical loadings. Horizontal loading leads to the production of sway and further results in vibration and storey drift. Strength and stiffness are two major keys for any structure to resist gravity and lateral loads. Provision of bracings or dampers to any structure contributes to lateral stability. After assigning dampers or bracings, the general system changes to lateral load resisting system (LLRS). The present work involves in proposing the suitability of type of damper or bracing for controlling the seismic activity on industrial structures in respective seismic zones II of India. Industrial structures also associate high dead load as it provides residence to heavy sized members. Therefore, this is necessary to investigate seismic response of buildings with various bracings and dampers to control vibration, lateral displacement and storey drift. Natural time period, frequency, roof displacements are the major parameters considered for observing response of structures. Response spectrum analysis of 3D industrial structure with distinct concentric bracings and dampers using SAP 2000 will be carrying in this research under respective base shear.
