In the present study an effort is made to study the effect of different infill material, shear wall and soft storey on the behavior of RC frame structure and to compare the behavior of the RC frame structure when seismic loads are applied as per the code IS 1893 (part 1) 2002 and IS 1893 (part 1) 2016. In this study G+15 high rise building is modal in ETABS. Seismic zone is zone Ⅳ. Response Spectrum Analysis (Linear dynamic analysis) is done using ETABS software. Soil conditions are to be medium and importance factor is to be taken as 1.5 in all the models. For all the models compared with Parameters like base shear, displacement, story drift, stiffness, story shear.

over all height of the structure. As height of the building increases lateral stiffness decreases. When lateral stiffness is low buildings are more vulnerable to wind and earthquake forces. To prevent the structure from the damage of lateral forces like wind and earthquake shear wall is provided as shear wall resist lateral forces and increase lateral stiffness of the structure. With the increasing population there is increase in housing requirement. Due to this construction of high structures became very often. Problem arises when the high rise buildings are not design and constructed properly. With the increase in material cost we need to find more cost saving alternatives to maintain cost of construction which can be affordable to people. Pollution is also increasing day by day so we also have to look for eco-friendly alternatives.

1.1Comparison of Red Bricks & AAC blocks:

AAC blocks are made from fly ash, gypsum, cement, lime and water. AAC block is a green building material which is light weight hence reduces the dead load of the structure. Dry density of AAC block ranges from 5 to 7 KN/m3 where as dry density of red brick ranges from 16 to 20 KN/m3. Compressive strength of AAC block and red brick are 5 N/mm2 and 3.5 N/mm2 respectively. Size of one AAC block is equal to eight red bricks. Currently AAC block are generally used in high rise structures due to its light weight but red bricks are used in all types of constructions from multistory building to low rise buildings. Although red bricks are being used more, AAC blocks can be a viable alternative offering reduction in dead load, cost saving and green building material.

1.INTRODUCTION The number of people living in urban areas has been increasing rapidly. It is been estimated that by 2050 7 out of 10 people will be living in urban areas. The buildings constructed for this increasing population have to be made taller vertically due to restricted space in urban areas. For construction of high rise structure technological advancement and selection of proper construction material is very important. There are mainly two types of loads acting on tall buildings as gravity loads and lateral loads. Loads are transferred through frames. The network of columns and beams that make up a frame. Infill walls are considered as non structural elements but it is very important to know the behavior of infill panel not only in case of gravity but in lateral loads as well. In India red brick is the most commonly used material for infill panels but now more light weight and eco-friendly material such as AAC blocks are also being used as infill material. It has been recognized that infill materials have significant effect on the performance of building. To design the building properly and to resist the lateral loads on building, shear wall is one of structural member. Shear wall is provided from foundation level to © 2021, IRJET

1.2 Shear wall: Shear wall is a structural member used to resist lateral forces like seismic load & wind load. In high-rise buildings, shear walls are commonly used. Shear wall increases the strength and stiffness of the structure as an part of an earthquake resistant building design. Under earthquake stress, a shear wall lowers lateral displacements. Shear wall also resist shear as well as uplift forces on building. Generally, minimum thickness of shear wall is 150 mm and maximum is up to 400mm in high rise buildings. Shear wall |
