  • Abstract:
  • The seismic performance evaluation of Reinforced Cement Concrete shear walls is vital for designing resilient structures capable of withstanding earthquake forces. This study utilizes ETABS and Abaqus software to conduct comprehensive analyses, focusing on key parameters such as material properties, wall thickness, aspect ratio, and reinforcement ratios. Time history analysis is employed to assess the dynamic behaviour of RCC shear walls under seismic loading. In ETABS, the analysis evaluates structural displacements, natural frequencies, and mode shapes, identifying critical factors influencing performance. Abaqus further investigates the seismic loading response by simulating dynamic earthquake patterns, capturing nonlinear material behaviours like strain rate effects and fatigue damage. Key metrics include structural displacements, energy dissipation, joint acceleration, and compressive and tensile behaviour. The findings provide insights into the durability and seismic resilience of RCC shear walls
