Study on Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete High-Rise Building with Buckling Restrained Braces Dissipation Devices

Abstract

Performance-based Seismic Engineering is the modem approach to Earthquake Resistant Design to control lateral deflection and inter-story drifts. It is a significant challenge to overcome in the execution of high-rise buildings. Since structures are subjected to lateral loads, the Utilization of dissipation devices such as the bracing, shear wall, and dampers are a possible method to enhance the structural performance of the high-rise building under load cases. These cases are varying to static and dynamic ones as Response Spectrum. Properly designed and detailed structures with dissipation devices have exhibited excellent performance during a severe earthquake. Lateral forces due to will be resisted in its plane. In continuation studies of reinforced concrete structure compared to the absorbing devices, Three essential reinforced concrete buildings were taken for analysis G+ 30 floors to cover the broader spectrum of high-rise building construction. Software ETABS carried out seismic analysis through Response Spectrum Analysis. The result highlights how structural damper systems perform much better than other systems with accuracy and exactness through the parameters of Displacement, Drift, Base shear, and Stiffness. Damper structures are more suitable for high-rise buildings and earthquake zones due to this study's results; maximum height of systems could be possible, which must be economically less expensive than steel structure of the same height.
