 INTRODUCTION
 Buildings are essential infrastructures in our society, providing shelter,
workspaces, and recreation areas.

 They are designed and constructed to withstand various loads, including

gravity, wind, earthquakes, and other natural forces.

 To ensure the safety and integrity of buildings, engineers rely on

sophisticated analytical tools to evaluate their behaviour under different
loading conditions.

 Time history analysis (THA) is a dynamic analysis technique used to simulate

the behaviour of structures subjected to dynamic loads such as earthquakes,
wind, and other natural forces.

 It involves the simulation of the actual time-varying ground motions by

inputting recorded ground motion data into the structural model.

 The analysis allows engineers to predict the behaviour of structures, including

the forces acting on the structure, the deformations, and the response of the
structure under different seismic loads.
 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

 To select appropriate multi-storey steel and RCC building models and

develop finite element models for THA analysis.

 To select and input recorded ground motion data for the THA analysis of
the selected building models.

 To analyze and compare the THA results of multi-storey steel and RCC
building models, including the forces acting on the structure, the
deformations, and the response of the structure.

 To provide recommendations for the design of multi-storey steel and RCC

buildings to ensure their safety and integrity during seismic events.

 This comparative study aims to evaluate the seismic performance of

multi-storey steel and reinforced concrete (RCC) buildings using time
history analysis.

 The study's probable implications include improved seismic

performance, cost-effective design, safer buildings, compliance with
building codes, and contribution to research.

 Overall, these studies and others in the literature provide a

comprehensive understanding of the behaviour of multi-storey steel
and RCC buildings under seismic loading conditions.

 The findings can inform the selection of appropriate structural

elements and retrofitting strategies to improve the seismic
performance of buildings and ensure the safety of their occupants.

 In their study, "Seismic Response Analysis of High-Rise Steel Frame Structures,"
Xu et al. (2019) conducted a THA analysis of a 50-story steel frame building
under different seismic loading conditions. The study evaluated the
effectiveness of different structural elements, including braces, shear walls, and
damping devices, in mitigating the effects of seismic loading.

 In another study, "Seismic Performance Evaluation of High-Rise Reinforced

Concrete Buildings with Various Structural Systems," Yoon et al. (2018)
conducted a THA analysis of a 50-story reinforced concrete building with
different structural systems, including shear walls, coupled walls, and outrigger
systems.

 In their study, "Nonlinear Time-History Analysis of Multi-Storey Reinforced

Concrete Buildings with Shear Walls," Giri et al. (2017) conducted a THA analysis
of a 10-story reinforced concrete building with shear walls under different
seismic loading conditions.
 In another study, "Seismic Performance of Steel and Reinforced Concrete
Structures," Memon et al. (2019) conducted a comparative study of the seismic
performance of steel and reinforced concrete buildings. The study evaluated the
effectiveness of different structural systems in both building types, including
braced frames, moment frames, and shear walls .

 In their study, "Comparative Seismic Analysis of Multi-Story Reinforced

Concrete Buildings with and without Shear Walls," Kurniawan et al. (2020)
conducted a comparative THA analysis of reinforced concrete buildings with and
without shear walls under different seismic loading conditions.

 The study has used the ETABS software to develop detailed models of the
buildings and subject them to different seismic loading conditions,
including earthquake ground motions.

 The study develops detailed models of the buildings, accounting for their
material properties, geometry, and structural elements.

 The models are subjected to seismic loading conditions based on the

1940 El Centro Earthquake, including earthquake ground motions of 6.9
magnitude, to evaluate their seismic performance using time history
analysis.

 The analysis will provide information on the buildings' lateral

displacement and acceleration response under seismic loading.
