  • Abstract:
  • In the present study a non-linear static method of analysis has been performed to estimate the behaviour of a building having vertical geometric irregularity. A comparison is made between a structure with masonry infill wall modelled, as against a structure without considering infill wall in it. This paper also focuses on studying the vulnerability of both structures and their responses to seismic parameters. It is observed that structures with infill wall panels perform better than bare frame structures, both in terms of seismic capacity, controlled displacement and better performance during various damage states. However, configuration of the building plays significance role under various damage state. As highlighted in the paper, the lesser step buildings perform poor during slight and moderate damage state, in comparison to higher stepped structures. On the contrary, they perform better under extensive and complete damage state.
