Geometric Nonlinearity, Lateral Loads, Linear Static Analysis, Non-Linear Analysis, P-Delta, Structural Software, Tall Structure

In this modern era of 21st century the urbanization increases worldwide, in heavily populated cities the availability of land is becoming less and cost of land is becoming higher. In view of popularity & less availability of land, tall structures are only solutions for overcoming the problems. A tall structure should be designed to resist the lateral load like Earthquake force within the permissible limits set by Standards. Loads are mainly of two types that are Gravity Loads & Lateral Loads likes Earthquake load. Earthquake forces are further two types, Static Forces & Dynamic Forces. It would be linear and Non-linear also. Linear static analysis can be performed for Low Rise Structure & law earthquake zones only. For tall structure it is necessary to consider nonlinearity, which is generally observed in geometry & materials. Our study is based on “P-Delta” analysis which incorporates geometric nonlinearity in the analysis. The study will be performed on structural software ETABS.
