Abstract

In the history of civil engineering, the structures were usually designed considering only static load factor. Later due to research in the civil engineering field, it was explored that the structures are also acted upon by several other loads which included seismic loads, wind loads, snow loads and many others depending upon the dimensions of the structure, location of the structure, type of the ground profile, etc. Hence this brought in the process of analyzing a structure for different types of loads and designing the structure for the critical load case of which dynamic load is considered as one of the important load for which the structure should be analyzed and designed. The main aim of this research work is to investigate the seismic performance of a multistoried reinforced concrete moment resisting framed building under static and dynamic loading as per Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC, 2006). Static seismic load has been applied to the structure according to Equivalent static force (ESF) method. On the other hand, response spectrum (RS) method has been performed for the application of dynamic loading. The present study focuses on investigating the variation of storey-displacement and storey drift for each storey, base shear, bending moments and shear forces in columns at different storey level. Finally, a comparative study has been carried out between static and dynamic analysis. Based on computing modeling output data, it has been found that the base shear obtained from RS analysis is less compared to ESF method. Maximum storey-displacement obtained from dynamic RS analysis is about 78% of that of static analysis. At the same time, in case of maximum bending moment in an interior column, the dynamic value is approximately 87% of the static value.
