Abstract: A six storey RC framed structure was used for performing seismic analysis with shear wall placed at different locations. The analysis was carried out at different seismic zones and the results were compared. Shear wall has become the most common method in construction of structures subjected to seismic forces because it provides a greater lateral strength and stability when subjected to horizontal forces. Hence the buildings are modeled and designed using ETABS 2016 software and results are further predicted in a detailed manner by plotting various graphs as per IS1893-2002.
Keywords: Shear Wall, IS1893-2002, Linear Case, Non-linear Case, ETABs2016.
