Analysis Technology and Methodology

1.3 General
After completion of Architectural design, the layout of columns and beams are
done without affecting the Architectural functions of building so far. Structure is
modeled using finite element method. A three-dimensional beam element
having 12 DOF with 6 DOFs at each node were used for modeling beams and
columns in the building, while 24 DOFs shell element with 6 DOFs at each node
were used to model slab wall.

The structure is analyzed by the linear elastic theory to calculate internal actions
produced by anticipated design loads. The analysis is carried out using state of
art three dimensional structural analysis programs like Staad ProV8i, ETABS
2015. The design loads considered as per the relevant codes of practice comprise
dead load due to permanent structures, live load due to occupancy of the
structure and seismic load due to anticipated earthquake possible at the proposed
location. A number of load combinations are considered to obtain the maximum
values of design stresses.
Following considerations is made during modeling, analysis and design.

 The structures are Special Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting

Frame (SMRF) type. Beams and columns are considered as the
structural load resisting elements. Although non-structural components
like wall plaster, infill walls, floor finishing etc has comes effects on
structural performance, they are considered only as loading.
 For all structural elements, M20 grade concrete are used.
 Centre-line dimensions are followed for modeling, analysis and design.
 Floor slabs are assumed to be rigid in their own plane. The slab action
has been modeled by rigid floor diaphragms. Slabs are also considered
in modeling. Slab is modeled as shell element.
 Beam and columns are modeled as frame elements.
 The main beams rest centrally on columns to avoid local eccentricity.
 Foundation is assumed to be fully rigid at the plinth level.
 The beam-column joint is not modeled in detail.
 Preliminary sizes of structural components are assumed by experience.
 Seismic loads were considered acting in the horizontal direction (along
either of the two orthogonal directions of building) and not along the

3
vertical direction, since it is not considered to be significant for design
of structural members suitable load combinations as suggested by IS
1893– 2002 are used.

Figure 3: 3D of Building

1.4 Codes and Standard used
For the structural analysis and design, the following codes and standard are
followed:

 IS 456- 2000Code of practice for plain and reinforced concrete

 IS 875-1987 Code of practice for design loads (other than earthquake)
for buildings and structures
 IS 1893-2002 Criteria for Earthquake Resistant Design of Structures,
 IS 13920-1993 Code of practice for ductile detailing of reinforced
concrete structures subjected to seismic forces
 NBC Nepal Building Code

1.5 Software Used

The following software is used for the structural analysis and design.

ETABS 2015 - For analysis and design of the structures

For structural modeling of the present building, ETABS software was used.
ETABS is a special purpose finite element analysis and design program
developed specifically for building systems. With ETABS, models are defined
logically floor-by-floor, column-by-column, bay-by-bay and wall-by-wall and not
as a stream of non-descript nodes and elements as in general purpose programs.
The software has very powerful numerical methods, design procedures and
international design codes, all working from a single comprehensive database. At
its core, it utilizes the same analysis engine as used by SAP2000.

Among others, ETABS can do model generation, seismic and wind load
generation, finite element-based linear and non-linear static and dynamic
analysis, concrete frame design (column and beam) and shear wall design.

2 Analysis
2.1 Material properties
2.1.1 Concrete
Column is designed for M25 grade of concrete. And all other components of
plain and reinforced concrete unless specified in design are M25 grade.

Modulus of Elasticity [Ec]= 5000 √fckN/mm2(Cl. 6.2.3.1, IS 456:2000)

= 22360 N/mm2for M20 grade

Poisson’s Ratio [U] = 0.2

5
 Unit Weight = 25 KN/m3

Characteristic Strength [ƒck] = 20 N/mm2for M20 grade

The structural design strength is derived from the characteristic strength

multiplied by a coefficient 0.67 and divided by the material partial safety
factor. The partial factor for concrete in flexure and axial load is 1.5.

2.1.2 Reinforcement Steel

Characteristic strength of high yield steel is taken as 500 MPa for main rebar
and 500 MPa shear rebar and material partial safety factor is to be1.15.

Modulus of Elasticity [Es] = 2x105 N/mm2

Poisson’s Ratio [U] = 0.3

2.2 Section Properties

 Preliminary Size of Members

The preliminary sizes of Beam, Column, and Slab were chosen based on
experience.

Main Beam : 350 mm x 400 mm

Column : 450mm x 450 mm

Slab Thickness : 150 mm

During the analysis, beam and column are modeled as frame elements whereas
slab loads are applied directly.

2.3 Loadings
The following considerations are made during the loading on the structural
model:

 The loads distributed over the area are imposed on the area element and
the loads distributed over the length are imposed on the frame elements
whenever possible.
 Where such loading is not possible, equivalent conversion to different
loading distribution is carried to load the model near the real case as far
as possible.
 For lateral load, necessary calculations are performed to comply with the
requirements of IS 1893-2002.

2.4 Estimation of Load

The loads on the building are based on Indian codes of Practices. The unit weight
of different structural and non-structural elements is derived from IS 875 Part 1
and presented in below.

The load calculations are based on actual measured drawings. The self-weight of
beams, columns and slabs are calculated by the program. Similarly, the imposed
loads are applied on the slab as area load in KN/m 2 and values of imposed loads
are tabulated below. The weight of infill walls is calculated and applied on beams
as line weight in KN/m.

 Partition wall load are assigned as uniformly distributed area load in slab as
area load in KN/m2.
 Floor finishing load are assigned as area load in slab.
 Single type of Live load is assigned in each panel of slab.
 A frame load is applied as parapet loading on the exterior frame of the roof
level.
 The roof is assumed accessible and loaded with roof live load as per Indian
Standard, IS 875 -1987(part2) but this load is not considered during seismic
load.

2.4.1 Unit Weight (Dead Load)

Dead loads for analysis are calculated as per Indian Standard, IS 875
-1987(part1). Unit weights of different material used are given below

2.4.2 Live Load

The magnitude of live load depends upon the type of occupancy of the
building. These are to be chosen from code IS875:1987(part II) for various
occupancies. The live load distribution varies with time. Hence each member
is designed for worst combination of dead load and live loads. Live loads for
residential cum commercial building are given above.

2.4.3 Seismic Load

11
 The seismic load is applied to the building with auto lateral load pattern in
ETABS 2013 as per IS 1893-2002. This load case is assumed static linear and
all the necessary data are given as per the following conditions.

To determine the seismic load, it is considered that the country lies in the
seismic zone V according to IS 1893:2002. The soil type is considered as soft
with 5% damping to determine average response acceleration. The building is
analyzed as moment resisting frame without consideration of infill wall.
Therefore the fundamental time period Tais obtained by using the following
formula:

Ta = 0.075 h0.75 [Cl.7.6.1, IS 1893 -2002] OR Ta= (0.09*h)/ (square

root of perpendicular direction)

Other factors considered for seismic load calculations are as follows

Zone factor, Z = 0.36 for Zone V [Table 2, Cl.6.4.2, IS 1893 -2002]

Importance factor, I = 1.5 [Table 6, Cl.6.4.2, IS 1893 -2002]

Response Reduction Factor = 5 for special RC moment resisting frame

(SMRF) [Table 7, Cl.6.4.2, IS 1893 -2002]

The seismic weight is determined based on the following mass source. (Table
6, Cl.7.3.1, IS 1893 (Part 1):2002

Table 6: Mass Source for Seismic Load

S.N Load Type Scale Factor

1 Dead Load 1
2 Live Load <3 0.25
3 Live Load >3 0.50
4 Roof Live Load Nil

3 Analysis Output
The analysis results are discussed in this chapter. Both seismic coefficient and
response spectrum methods are used. The major discussion are focused on the
eccentricity, story shear, inter story drift, maximum displacement and base shear
along two orthogonal directions. The column and beam size and reinforcement
are the designed for the maximum response.

3.1 Seismic Coefficient Method

The fundamental time period of the building as per IS code 1893: 2002, clause
7.6.1, total seismic weight and base shear in both orthogonal directions are

12
 given in Table 7. This result will be used to compare and scale the base shear
from response spectrum method.

X 0.45

Y 0.45

Based on program/software calculated seismic coefficient, base shear and

storey shear are as shown in the Table 8 and to calculate these parameters, the
following equation has been used as per code.
The coefficient is given by,

Z I S a 0.36 1.0 Sa
Ah = = x x
2 R g 2 5 g

And, base shear is given by,

V b =A h W
These values in both the orthogonal direction are tabulated in the Table
8below.

3.2 Story Drift

As per Cl. no. 7.11.1 of IS 1893-2002, the story drift in any story due to
specified design lateral force with partial load factor of 1.0, shall not exceed
0.004 times the story height. From the analysis the displacements of the mass
center of various floors are obtained and are shown in along with story drift.

Story2 EQY 16 Max Drift Y 0.00249
Story1 EQX 12 Max Drift X 0.00192
Story1 EQY 16 Max Drift Y 0.00182
It is seen that drift does not exceed the code prescribed value of 0.004 times
story height Thus the drift check seems to comply with the safety value
mentioned in the code.

3.3 Modal time period and mass participation

IS 1893: 2002 clause 7.8.4.2 states that number of modes to be used in the
analysis should be such that the sum total of modal masses of all modes
considered is at least 90 percent of the total seismic mass of the structure.

Number of Modes Considered = 12

Modal Mass Participation along X = 99.75%
Modal Mass Participation along Y = 99.69%
