        abstract = {High-rise buildings often incorporate floating columns to meet architectural and operational requirements. These columns can enhance the structural responses, particularly in buildings with irregular plan forms. Advanced comparative techniques are used to evaluate the performance of floating columns in both regular and irregular high-rise structures. Structural performance is analyzed using a combination of finite element analysis and response spectrum analysis to study lateral displacement, inter-story drift, base shear, and overall stability under seismic and static loading conditions.
Research explores high-rise buildings with varying levels of irregularity, focusing on the placement of floating columns within these structures. Findings reveal that irregular buildings with floating columns experience increased stress concentrations and greater lateral movements compared to regular designs. Additionally, buildings with asymmetrically placed floating columns are prone to significant torsional effects, reducing structural integrity during seismic events. The results highlight the importance of proper structural planning and the use of shear walls and bracing systems to mitigate negative effects and improve overall performance.
This research provides valuable insights for engineers and architects, offering strategies to enhance the safety and design of high-rise buildings featuring floating columns and shear walls. Incorporating advanced modeling techniques alongside regulatory guidelines enables accurate predictions of structural behavior through comparative analysis. Future studies should include experimental testing to develop new materials and reinforcement strategies that enhance the durability and reliability of these structural systems.},
