A STUDY ON STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOUR OF HIGH-RISE STRUCTURES AGAINST WIND LOADING FOR DIFFERENT STRUCTURAL SYSTEM

Abstract

With an impressive rate of urbanization and migration of population from rural areas to urban areas; the rate of construction of high – rise structures has also increases. The construction of high – rise structures mainly categorized into residential complexes and corporate office buildings. In previous studies, many researchers had analyzed the behavior of high – rise structures with normal configurations, catering the need for the design of tall residential buildings. This study will be focusing on assessing the structural behavior of the high – rise buildings with different structural systems. The vulnerability behavior of six different structural configurations of high – rise structures is determined, by employing the design guidelines mentioned in IS 16700: 2017 and IS 875 (Part III): 2015. Different structural behavior such as deformation, inter story drift and overturning moments has been analysed which are considered as critical parameters in the designing of high – rise structures. A comparative study is presented and suitable recommendation is given for opting the optimum structural system for high – rise structures based on the analyzed data. The outcomes of the study may be contributed towards supporting SDG 09: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; attempt to provide an innovative approach for making the smart infrastructure resilient against wind forces.
