Title of the Project:

SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF HIGH RISE STEEL BUILDING

Aims and Objective
In last decades steel structures has played an important role in construction industry. Providing
strength, stability and ductility are major purposes of seismic design. It is necessary to design a
structure to perform well under seismic loads.
There is scope to do Seismic analysis having more number of stories with 3D modeling
(i.e. high rise framed building) for different kind of loading and to see the effect on every
condition. In this project we are going to do Seismic analysis of a high rise steel framed building
for Zone IV, using response spectra method. The design and analysis will be done on STAAD
PRO software using IS 800-2007. The results are considered in terms of joint displacement , base
shear reaction, modal period and checked against permissible values.

INTRODUCTION
Large portion of India is susceptible to damaging levels of seismic hazards. Hence it is necessary
to take in to account the seismic load for the design of high - rise structure . In tall building the
lateral loads due to earthquake are a matter of concern. These lateral forces can produce critical
stresses in the structure, induce undesirable stresses in the structure, induce undesirable
vibrations or cause excessive lateral sway of the structure.
Sway or drift is the magnitude of the lateral displacement at the top of the building relative to its
base. Traditionally, seismic design approaches are stated, as the structure should be able to
ensure the minor and frequent shaking intensity without sustaining any damage, thus leaving the
structure serviceable after the event. The structure should withstand moderate level of earthquake
ground motion without structural damage, but possibly with some structural as well as nonstructural damage. This limit state may correspond to earthquake intensity equal to the strongest
either experienced or forecast at the site. The results are studied for response spectrum method
The main parameters considered in this study to compare the seismic performance of different
models are storey drift, base shear, story deflection and time period. There are various
advantages of steel structures some of them are as follows:

High strength to volume/mass ratio

Speed in construction and time saving in comparison to RCC, resulting in early return on
investment

The dominance of steel in the multi-storey commercial sector is based on tangible clientrelated benefits including the ability to provide column free floor spans
Efficient of more circulation space
Integration of building services and the influence of the site and local access conditions
on the construction process

Steel frames are lighter in weight in comparison to RCC frame. Lighter foundations are
required for steel buildings due to less weight than RCC resulting cost advantage over
civil construction

Occupies less space and can be designed for larger span/column free spaces, resulting
greater coverage, this helps in large open office space and large auditorium and concerts
hall
