  • Abstract:
  • This research paper aims to investigate the dynamic behavior of steel-framed buildings with a soft story under different types of bracing systems. The vulnerability of buildings with soft stories to lateral loads, such as earthquakes, has been well-documented. The effectiveness of different bracing systems in mitigating the structural vulnerabilities associated with soft stories is a critical aspect of earthquake-resistant design. In this study, a comprehensive analysis is conducted using advanced computational tools to assess the performance of various bracing systems in enhancing the seismic resilience of steel-framed buildings with soft stories. In this paper we have analyzed G+5 steel framed building with soft story at various locations using ETABS software and effect of different bracing systems like X bracing, v bracing, k bracing has been compared. The research findings provide valuable insights into selecting optimal bracing strategies for such structures.
