  • Abstract:
  • India's high population density necessitates high-rise buildings due to limited land. Past earthquakes have shown the severe impact on structures, making it essential to consider seismic effects when designing medium- to high-rise buildings for safety. This study analyzes the seismic performance of a 15-story (G+14) building in seismic Zone IV, focusing on how different shear wall placements affect stability and resistance to earthquakes. Four building models were tested: one without shear walls, and others with shear walls at the corners, periphery, and center. Using ETABS software and following IS 1893:2016 standards, each model was subjected to the same loading conditions and evaluated through response spectrum analysis. The study confirms that shear walls significantly enhance lateral stability, reducing lateral displacement and inter-story drift, with the best performance observed when shear walls are placed at the corners. This configuration offers optimal stiffness and strength, improving the building's resistance to seismic forces. The findings provide valuable insights for engineers and architects in designing earthquake-resistant structures to ensure higher safety in seismic regions.
