Abstract:

Purpose Sustainable retrofitting of aged buildings plays a significant role in reducing energy demands and greenhouse gas emissions. This study aims to assess the performance and effectiveness of energy retrofit measures (ERMs) for an archetype of aged multi-storey residential buildings. Design/methodology/approach The methodology consists of three parts, namely, a desktop study including the selection of a case-study building and identification of ERM options for the building; development of a computer model to simulate the building’s energy use in the baseline scenario and different scenarios of ERMs; and evaluation of the ERMs based on energy-saving rate. Findings Among the 13 ERMs tested, lighting-related ERMs were found to be optimal measures while window fin is the least suitable option in terms of energy saving. Based on the research findings, a two-level retrofitting framework was developed for aged multi-storey buildings. Research limitations/implications Future studies may take a similar approach of this study to develop retrofitting frameworks for other types of buildings, and further research paper can be extended to study retrofitting for buildings in a district or a region. Practical implications The findings of this study can serve as a reference for building owners to select effective ERMs for aged multi-storey buildings, which invariably exist in developed cities. Originality/value This study presents a pioneering work where an energy model and a building archetype were used to analyze the energy savings of a variety of ERMs that are applicable to aged multi-storey buildings.

Abstract:

Abstract Indonesia is located at the confluence of three main tectonic plates which makes it one of the countries with the highest earthquake risk in the world. Recorded experiences has showed that the earthquake cause damage to buildings particularly multi-storey building structures. The purpose of this study is to determine the performance level of multi-storey reinforced concrete structures using a performance-based design method based on the ATC-40 and FEMA 440 regulations. The buildings in this study are 4-storey and 8-storey buildings. The effect of column size, beam size, and concrete quality are investigated. This study results the performance level, capacity curve, level of effectiveness of variations based on pushover analysis using the ATC-40 and FEMA 440. It can be concluded that the building structure is considered as Operational category based on the ATC-40 and FEMA 440 regulations. On the other hand, for the level of effectiveness of variations in building structures, it is more effective to enlarge the column cross-sectional dimensions and increase the height of the beam for 4-storey and 8-storey buildings, respectively.

Abstract:

When the pressure of natural gas changes, a significant level difference appears between the gas control point and the location of the consumer. In this case, the pressure value may exceed safety standards. In buildings, supplying gas to the burner with a value other than the nominal pressure causes incomplete combustion of the fuel and the formation of carbon monoxide. Leakage of natural gas at pressures above the nominal leads to a rapid increase in the percentage of gas in the room air above the lower concentration limit of explosiveness, which makes the mixture explosive. In this regard, in some countries, building codes do not allow gasification of buildings above 10 floors. In Georgia, such a ban does not exist and this problem becomes relevant, since a large number of high-rise buildings have been built in the country and almost 100% of them are gasified.

Abstract:

A multi-storey building is just a building that has multiple storeys above the ground. A multi storied building is either residential or commercial. Migration of individuals from rural to urban centres where job opportunities are significant. The land available for building to accommodate this migration is becoming scarce which ends in rapid increase within the cost of land. And this leads to construction of multi-storeyed buildings as they supply an outsized floor area in an exceedingly relatively small area of land in urban cities. A comparison of highrise buildings by response spectrum analysis in different seismic zones of India. The main objective of this research paper is to compare regular and irregular buildings in seismic zone III & zone V by response spectrum analysis in STAAD. Pro. The soil type taken into consideration is medium soil type. The aim is to find base shear, storey drift and story displacement and eigen value and eigen vector by response spectrum analysis. Cost analysis has also been done. Analysis is done as per IS 456:2000 and IS 1893:2002. It focuses on dynamic analysis of buildings. Without increasing the area, we can extend only the building’s floor to design a multi-storied building as this will save overall building cost. Key Words: Seismic Analysis, Response Spectrum Analysis, Base Shear, Storey Drift, Story Displacement, STAAD.Pro

Abstract:

In order to increase plasticity during destruction along inclined sections and to protect against progressive collapse of reinforced concrete frames of multi-storey buildings, a variant of cross reinforcement of crossbars in such frames is proposed. The results of a numerical study of the reinforced concrete frame of a multi-storey building with a special impact in the form of an extraordinary hypothetical removal from the work of one of the columns are presented. The modeling of the deformation of the frame is carried out in three versions: the frame of the entire building in the rod setting, a fragment of the building in the column removal zone and a fragment of crossbars adjacent to the column being removed using volumetric finite elements. The obtained results showed the effectiveness of the proposed variant of cross-reinforcement of crossbars to protect a multi-storey frame building from progressive collapse, as well as the effectiveness of using the proposed variant of three-level models for calculating the parameters of static-dynamic deformation of the carcasses of multi-storey buildings under the considered special impacts.

Abstract:

High-rise multi-storey buildings are one of the most widely used types of buildings in town-planning (urban planning). Depending on their purpose, high-rise multi-storey buildings are considered to be both constructive and engineering-technically complex objects. The current use of modern construction technologies intends the widespread use of a large number of engineering systems in high-rise multi-storey buildings. These include such examples as ventilation, heating, lighting, communications, building automation, etc. It should be pointed out that fire safety systems play one of the key roles in building automation. This is due to the fact that multi-storey buildings have rather high energy consumers and the use of a large number of various systems consequently increase the probability of fire occurence. In addition, it is worth pointing out that the human factor plays an important role in fire occurrence, because human is the direct author of constructive and technical solutions, the end user of the apartments having a high probability of fire, so much depends on his actions as a result. The main purpose of the paper is to analyze the use of various technical units to increase the efficiency of multi-storey buildings in terms of fire safety. First, fire is studied as a physicochemical process and then analysis of various fire safety problems that arise during the operation of multi-storey buildings in the Republic of Azerbaijan and foreign countries and their practical solutions based on this analysis are examined in the article. Keywords: fire, smoke extraction/ventilation systems, fire alarm systems, fire detectors, fire controllers, building automation, video analytics

Abstract:

Buildings possessing an asymmetrical arrangement of structural elements are torsionally unbalanced and can be vulnerable in a seismic event. Building codes of practices typically recommend the use of three-dimensional dynamic analysis to determine the seismic demands of a multi-storey building. Whilst most design practices are well equipped with commercial software for undertaking such analyses, designers often find it difficult to verify results. Much of the published technical articles present findings for buildings based on an idealised single-storey model. As a result of challenges in dealing with real multi-storey buildings, there has been very limited uptake of research findings in design practices. This article presents a three-tiered approach of estimating the displacement behaviour of the building in term of 3D/2D displacement ratio. The estimate can be used for verifying results reported from a computer package conveniently. The quick method provides predictions of the 3D/2D ratio and only requires the gross plan dimensions of the building to be known. The refined method requires knowledge of the torsional stiffness properties to be known, whereas the detailed method requires the eccentricity properties to be known as well. The proposed methodology is robust and reliable, as is demonstrated by case studies undertaken on six real multi-storey buildings.

Abstract:

PurposeThe failure and abandonment of construction projects have proven to be insurmountable problems incessantly militating against the efficient performance of the construction industry in Nigeria. The complexity, technicality and a host of other project execution issues unique to multi-storey building projects do increase their susceptibility to failure and abandonment. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to examine the factors influencing failure and abandonment of multi-storey building projects in Nigeria. This is with a view to provide inferential empirical data that could enhance successful delivery of multi-storey building projects in Nigeria.Design/methodology/approachPrimary data were used for the study. A structured questionnaire was administered on consultants and contractors’ personnel within Lagos State, Nigeria. A total of 180 copies of the questionnaire were administered ,and 134 copies which represent a combined response rate of 74.4 per cent were retrieved. The data were analysed using frequency distribution and percentages, Mean item score and factor analysis.FindingsThe factors most significant to the failure and abandonment of multi-storey building projects are inadequate funding by the client, improper planning at the pre-construction phase, structural failure in multi-storey building during construction, bankruptcy/business failure of the contractor, improper scheduling of the building project activities and failure to engage qualified professionals with technical expertise and experience. The rated factors clustered under human resources capability, planning and structural quality, contractor selection and variation, insecurity and variation, and force majeure and political risk.Research limitations/implicationsThe study was limited to multi-storey building projects in Lagos State, Nigeria. Further studies could focus on specific resuscitation strategies for abandoned multi-storey building projects.Practical implicationsThe study provided implications for effective project and contract management of multi-storey building projects which is very paramount to improve the delivery of complex, technical- and capital-intensive building projects in Nigeria.Originality/valueThe study provides specific implications for the management of multi-storey building projects, thereby enhancing the delivery of building projects.

Abstract:

Abstract The global population is increasing annually; thus, there is a need for more housing and buildings worldwide. As cities grow outward and buildable lands become scarce, it is necessary to increase the height of existing buildings in cities, especially where the height of the buildings is low. For crowded cities, the storey extension is an increasingly popular measure that can meet market demand for centrally located houses. This paper examines the possibility of the vertical extension of an existing (reference) reinforced concrete building in Gävle in Sweden. The StruSoft FEM-Design program is employed to carry out the research. The building is firstly modelled, analysed and designed completely. Thereafter, a storey extension is conducted vertically. The stresses and utilisation ratios of the load-bearing elements of the reference and extended buildings are assessed. It is found that some of the load-bearing elements of the building after the extension need strengthening. Different practical strengthening solutions are proposed. It is concluded that the building can successfully withstand the vertical extension after applying these proposed solutions. The maximum vertical reaction forces of the reference and extended buildings are obtained and compared. A comparison of the deflections of the buildings is made. The structural stability of the buildings is evaluated as well.

Abstract:

The paper substantiates the possibility of using the elevators as the main evacuation path from high-rise multi-storey buildings. The analysis of the reasons preventing effective evacuation of people from high-rise buildings is carried out. A tall multi-storey office building was modeled in the Pathfinder software package. Several scenarios of the human flow are presented, and the influence of time parameters (the beginning of evacuation and delay of signal delivery), the composition of the flow (different ratios of people of different mobility groups), and the level at which the evacuation of each group begins are reflected on the time of evacuation using elevators. The time of evacuation by a staircase is compared with the time of evacuation using elevators. It is shown that it is effective to use evacuation elevators in 60-storey buildings, but it is not rational to use them for a 20-storey building.

Abstract:

As a passive building energy-saving technology, shading systems are usually used to reduce the solar radiation into the unit and reduce the energy consumption of air conditioning system. For multi-storey buildings, shading devices can not only change the indoor thermal environment, but also change the indoor wind environment and air quality because their impact on airflow patterns of natural ventilation. In this paper, the numerical simulation method was used to investigate external shading louvers on the single-sided ventilation performance and indoor air quality of units at different positions in a multi-storey building. Three approaching airflow directions and three rotation angles of louvers were considered and analysed. The results show that the evaluation of ventilation performance of shading louvers in multi-storey buildings is important for shaded buildings, which provide a new perspective for the geometry design of shading louvers and ventilation design of buildings.

Abstract:

Multi-storey steel buildings are usually designed with rigid connections between beams and columns or with simple hinged connections and a stiffening system. The paper focuses on the 3D structural design of multi-storey steel buildings including floor slabs and shear walls. The method of numerical modelling has been applied to investigate the influence of rigid connections between certain structural elements on the lateral stiffness of the multi-storey building structure, when floor slabs and shear walls are considered in the structural design. Four building heights and six structural system types, having the same floor plan have been examined. 3D numerical models have been configured in FEM software to evaluate the lateral stiffness of the structures exposed to gravity and seismic loads. The maximum horizontal deflections and natural periods of vibrations are presented in the paper. It has been concluded that the connection type in the multi-storey steel structure has no significant influence on the lateral stiffness of the structure when structural design considers floor slabs and shear walls.

Abstract:

The increasing number of residents demands the provision of settlement facilities and infrastructure. Limited land is an obstacle to the development in the horizontal direction, especially the use of green open land which will cause land conversion. The limitation of the building height regulated by local regulations, as well as the local wisdom, namely vertical holiness can be a challenge related to the idea of building multi-storey buildings. When you want to enter the lower floors of the building, there is a feeling of doubt because there are other residents on the upper floors who step over. This study aims to reveal the relationship of vertical holiness with multi-storey building design and formulate vertical holiness as an effort to implement it in a design so that it can be accepted by the community. This study uses a methodology to examine the problem by interviewing the stakeholders and filling out the questionnaire, therefore, the relationship between vertical holiness and multi-storey building design can be obtained. The results of the study clearly confirm that there is indeed a correlation between vertical holiness and multi-storey building design. Thus, the design should pay attention to this vertical holiness. The study also encourages that the formulation of vertical holiness should be legally stated in regulation so that it is easily understood and accepted by the community.

A study is carried out to evaluate the storey drift evaluation methods of the seismic code of Algeria (RPA 99) and France (PS 92) for multi-storey steel rigid-frame buildings with set-back towers. The evaluation is based on a comparison of the storey drift obtained from the procedures of codes with those obtained from the nonlinear dynamic analysis of the buildings with set-back and a uniform building served as a reference. The results of the nonlinear dynamic analysis show in particular that the code methods of RPA 99 and PS 92 lead generally to an underestimation of storey drifts for the "tower" portion but provide such estimates of those for the "base" portion.Key words: storey, drift, code, seismic, building, set-back, response, analysis.

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the fire performance in a multi-storey cross-laminated timber (CLT) structure by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS v.6.7). The study investigates fire temperature, heat release rate (HRR), and gas concentration (O2, CO2). The importance of this research is to ensure that the fire performance of timber buildings is adequate for occupant safety and property protection. Moreover, the proposed technique provides safety measures in advance for engineers when designing buildings with sufficient fire protection by predicting the fire temperature, time to flashover and fire behaviour. The present numerical modelling is designed to represent a 10-storey CLT residential building where each floor has an apartment with 9.14 m length by 9.14 width dimensions. The pyrolysis model was performed with thermal and kinetic parameters where the furniture, wood cribs and CLT were allowed to burn by themselves in simulation. This research is based on a full-scale experiment of a two-storey CLT building. The present results were validated by comparing them with the experimental data. Numerical simulation of CLT building models show a very close accuracy to the experiment performed in the benchmark paper. The results show that the CFD tools such as FDS can be used for predicting fire scenarios in multi-storey CLT buildings.

Abstract:

The Construction Industry is the source for widespread employment for people of all walks of life, next only to Agriculture. The industry is picking up very well now after the shake of demonetisation. The builders have also understood the importance of RERA and majority of the builders are ensuring total compliance to it. The GST which was initially looked at as a blow is being viewed in its proper perspective. The current trend in the construction field is to offer “ready to occupy homes”. This is, basically, due to two reasons. Large numbers of builders are in the field doing construction, in almost the entire city and the outskirts. This healthy competition has necessitated offering maximum benefits to customers and whatever possible to retain them in their fold. In a way, the customers are being attracted so nicely that they have to only pay the initial amount at the time of booking, forget about the bother of EMI,

Abstract: For construction projects to reduce and control delays, proper planning and scheduling are critical. Each year, the construction sector wastes a significant amount of time, money, and resources owing to ineffective project management. Building projects have grown in size and complexity as a result of globalization. By decreasing the amount of paperwork you have to undertake, project planning software may help you save time and money. A project cannot accomplish the target outcome just by providing adequate planning, proper organization, and a sufficient flow of resources. A warning system must be present throughout the project to notify the organization about its potential success and failures. The primary purpose of this assignment is to evaluate the drawing in Auto CAD, produce an estimate in MS Excel, and plan, schedule, and track a construction project using Primavera software.

Abstract:

This research aims to develop analytical study of post tensioned slab with floating column. In present scenario buildings with floating columns are of typical feature within the fashionable multi storey construction practices in urban India. Such sorts of constructions are highly undesirable in building inbuilt seismically active areas. For this buildings are given floating columns at one or more storey. These floating columns are highly disadvantageous during a building inbuilt seismically active area. The earthquake forces that are developed at different floor levels during a building got to be carried down along the peak to the bottom by the shortest path. Deviation or discontinuity during this load transfer path leads to poor performance of the building. In this paper, analytical study of post tensioned slab to evaluate the performance of floating column at ground level or at alternative story for G + 10 story building without shear wall, shear wall at corner, shear wall at center, shear wall at external middle and combined shear wall are provided for regular building is taken for study. The response of building like storey drift, storey displacement and storey shear has been wont to evaluate the results obtained using ETABS software.

Abstract:

Introduction. In the contemporary world, the number of multi-storey and high-rise buildings goes up, and this is the case of central districts of large cities. This renewal of built environments in megalopolises takes the form of development of unoccupied spaces, which grow smaller year after year, and liquidation of buildings whose life cycle is coming to an end. In this regard, there arises a problem of choosing the building demolition method, since traditional techniques, used worldwide, do not allow for the liquidation of buildings that have more than 15 floors. Therefore, given the growing number of floors, densely built-up areas, and tighter safety regulations, there is a need to improve dismantling technologies, including tighter environmental safety requirements applied to dismantling works, and this necessity substantiates the relevance of this research. The subject of this work is the engineering and economic indicators of the element-wise deconstruction and mechanical demolition, performed as a sequential set of works that end in the elimination of a multi-storey building, having various design features. The purpose of this study is to explore the engineering and economic indicators of dismantling works carried out in densely built-up urban areas, taking into account work arrangement features, space-planning and design characteristics of a building to be liquidated. Materials and methods. Given the findings of the field observations that represent photographic recording and timing, measurements were taken in respect of the time needed to perform the dismantling work in the process of liquidation of a multi-storey building. The method of mathematical analysis was employed to obtain the engineering and economic indicators of dismantling works. The work space, the scope and amount of work were identified using AutoCAD, a 2D modeling system. Results. The co-authors have identified the features of the element-wise dismantling and mechanical demolition of a multi-storey building, dependences between engineering and economic indicators, as well as the characteristics of buildings. Conclusions. The research, performed by the co-authors, allow to identify the bottlenecks of such methods of dismantling a multi-storey building, as its element-wise dismantling and mechanical demolition. The results of the work can be used to streamline the building dismantling technology, with regard to the features of surrounding buildings and the characteristics of the building to be liquidated.

Abstract:

Previous studies on inter-unit dispersion around multi-storey buildings focused mostly on an isolated building. Considering that the presence of an upstream building(s) would significantly modify the airflow pattern around a downstream building, this study intends to investigate the influence of such changed airflow patterns on inter-unit dispersion characteristics around a multi-storey building due to wind effect. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method in the framework of Reynolds-averaged Navier-stokes modelling was employed to predict the coupled outdoor and indoor airflow field, and the tracer gas technique was used to simulate the dispersion of infectious agents between units. Based on the predicted concentration field, a mass conservation based parameter, namely re-entry ratio, was used to evaluate quantitatively the inter-unit dispersion possibilities and thus assess risks along different routes. The presence of upstream building(s) could disrupt the strong impingement of approaching flows but brings a more complex and irregular airflow pattern around the downstream multi-storey buildings, leading to a more scattered distribution of re-entry ratio values among different units and uncertain dispersion routes. Generally, the tracer gas concentration in most units was lower than those in an isolated building, although very high concentrations were found in some specific areas.

Abstract:

Abstract Earthquake is one of the horrible natural disasters. With the considerable developments in the constructional science, the experts have been able to find out the factor forces that cause earthquakes the damage and destructions in different types of buildings, including residential and commercial buildings, caused by earthquake are of high importance and need to be considered. The damage caused by earthquakes in multi-story buildings is usually in the weak points of the building, which is caused by Strength and changes in stiffness. this paper deal with two methods of analyze, linear static analysis (Equivalent Static Analysis) and linear dynamic analysis (Response Spectrum Analysis) on three different height structures(5-Storey, 10-Storey, 15-Storey) with regular plan in two various seismic zones (IV, V) as per IS1893-2016 and compared parameters, max story displacement, max drift ratio, base shear, max axial force in column, max bending moment in column and fundamental time period from the effect of two analysis methods, using ETABS software. After the analysis, these conclusions were made: Effect of equivalent static analysis in both seismic zones IV, V in Max Story Displacement is more than response spectrum analysis, 36% in 15 Storey building, 38% in 10 Storey building and 34% in 5 Storey building. Fundamental Time Period is equal in equivalent static analysis and response spectrum analysis in both seismic zones and with the 5 storey gap between each buildings time period, 9.5% less from 15 storey to 10 storey and 29% less from 10 storey to 5 storey. Effect of equivalent static analysis in both seismic zones at Max Drift Ratio 27%, 33%, 30% in (15,10,5) storeys buildings is more than response spectrum analysis. In general, it can be said that the values coming from the all parameters in equivalent static analysis are to most of the values of response spectrum analysis.

Abstract:

In India, hilly region especially northern part is more seismically active region. Flat Slab systems are widely popular in multi-storey buildings. Flat slab building has more advantages than a regular building like fast construction, free design space, reduced floor to floor height and economical. Flat slab buildings are also being built in high seismicity region. Buildings on hilly ground are vulnerable due to their vertical and horizontal irregularity and they undergo high shear and torsion during the earthquake. Further due to short column and soft storey on uphill side has higher lateral forces that are cause to failure of buildings. In this paper, an attempt has been made to assess the seismic behavior of flat slab resting on hilly slope with soft storey and set back configuration. The methodologies have been adopted are linear dynamic analysis i.e. response spectrum analysis. Building is analyzed and designed by Etabs software. Maximum displacement, maximum inter-storey drift and storey shear are determined as response quantities. It is observed from the study that for flat slab buildings on hill slopes the storey shear is very high in the bottom columns at higher ground level, therefore extra care should be taken to design these columns for earthquake load.

Abstract:

This paper analyses the most widespread designs of external walls of the multi‐storey residential buildings now in use. Such 49 alternative designs of external walls of multi‐storey residential buildings are analyzed using multicriteria analysis program under uncertainty. Few ways of the decision are applied for the decision of the problem: the method of distance to an ideal point, Baye's rule and Wald's rule. To project and understand effective construction of a building, it is necessary to execute exhaustive analysis of all decisions (planimetric, prolongation of term and quality of buildings operation, improvement of architectural decisions, etc.). The level of a design of external walls efficiency of multi‐storey residential buildings depends on very many factors, including: cost of the construction work, used materials and building mechanisms, aesthetics, properties of service, thermal insulation properties, durability, etc. The offered decision of the choice of the effective decision problem using the system of the criteria having different dimensions takes into account the rational estimation of economic, climatic, social conditions and traditions and also allows better to satisfy architectural, functional, service, comfort and other requirements of the client. It also allows to reduce design, building and operational expenses. The choice of a variant mainly depends on needs and existing financial ability of the customer. The offered system of the effective decision choice using the principles of the multi‐criteria analysis is described in the presented paper. There is an opportunity on the basis of the offered system to compare alternative design decisions of external walls of multi‐storey residential buildings and the choice of the most effective variants.

Abstract The current work investigates the behavior of a multi-story RC building under seismic load using pushover analysis, employing two (codes IS code and ACI code) where the special moment resistant frame (SMRF) building is located in a medium-seismicity region of India in Pune City. The G+8 to G+20 storeys of the RC buildings have been chosen for this purpose. The structural analysis programmed SAP2000.V20 was used to create a finite element model of the structure. The different models (5 models) of RC buildings were initially designed to resist seismic loads using the responses spectrum analysis method to determine the RC building’s characteristics. Pushover analysis is used to predict potential weak areas in the structure by tracking the sequence of damages of each and every member in the structure and determining the weak joints (critical joints) in the RC building. and compare the two codes (IS code and ACI code)

Abstract:

Staircase evacuation has always been a popular topic as today’s buildings are mostly dependent on the staircase for vertical transportation. This paper discussed the effect of open staircase position and width towards evacuation duration and distance. To simulate a real emergency situation, an experimental study needed to be conducted by using pathfinder software. Results show that increasing escape route width improves evacuation duration but the distance is much influence based on the positioning of the staircase in the building. The different staircase scenario has a significant influence on crowd dispersal. Future study can focus on various speed of the occupant to see how it will influence the crowd dispersal in a multi-storey building.

Abstract The majority of residents in Latvia live in standard multi-storey residential buildings, which were constructed between 1950 and 1992. At present, these buildings are obsolete; besides, in the course of construction process the durability and reliability levels were planned to be insufficient. In Riga, residents of standard multi-storey residential buildings do not support building renovation and are passive, despite the availability of the EU and government support as well as co-financing of building renovation projects. The majority of the respondents assume that the apartment is the most significant asset of the family. Moreover, 34 % - 69 % of the participants have renovated their apartment and save resources within their apartment boundaries. Only some respondents evaluate the technical condition of communal property, but most respondents do not have information concerning resource supply and energy accounting as well as are not interested in resource saving possibilities within the building in general, and do not understand the importance of technical maintenance of the building.

Abstract:

The beam - column joint is an important part of a multi-storey RC building as it caters for lateral and gravitational load during an earthquake event. The beam-column joints should have a medium to high ductility for transferring the earthquake load and gravity load to the foundation. By designing multi-storey RC buildings using Eurocode 8 can avoid any diagonal shear cracks in column which is a major problem in non-seismic design buildings using British Standard (BS8110). This paper presents the experimental hysteresis loops of monolithic corner beam-column joints of multi-storey building which had been designed using Eurocode 8 and tested under in-plane lateral cyclic loading. The experimental hysteresis loops of corner beam-column joint was compared with modelled using the HYSTERES program. The full-scale corner beam-column joint of a two story precast school building was designed, constructed, tested and modelled is presented herein. The seismic performance parameters such as lateral strength capacity, stiffness, ductility and equivalent viscous damping were compared between experimental and modelled hysteresis loops. The experimental hysteresis loops have similar shape with the modeling hysteresis loops with small percentage differences between them.

Abstract:

The article discusses the possibility of using the elevators as the main evacuation path from high-rise buildings. It starts by analysis of the reasons, which make effective evacuation of people from high-rise buildings difficult. The high multi-storey office building was modelled in the Pathfinder software package. There are presented some scenarios of the human flow and their influence on time parameters (the evacuation start and signal delivery delay), on flow composition (ratio of people with different mobility) and base evacuation level of each group. The time of evacuation is compared on the staircase and using elevators. It is effective to use evacuation elevators in 60-storey buildings, but it is not rational to use them in 20-storey building.

Abstract:

Heritage buildings are often lost without being adequately documented. Significant research has gone into automated building modelling from point clouds, challenged by irregularities in building design and the presence of occlusion-causing clutter and non-Manhattan World features. Previous work has been largely focused on the extraction and representation of walls, floors, and ceilings from either interior or exterior single storey scans. Significantly less effort has been concentrated on the automated extraction of smaller features such as windows and doors from complete (interior and exterior) scans. In addition, the majority of the work done on automated building reconstruction pertains to the new-build and construction industries, rather than for heritage buildings. This work presents a novel multi-level storey separation technique as well as a novel door and window detection strategy within an end-to-end modelling software for the automated creation of 2D floor plans and 3D building models from complete terrestrial laser scans of heritage buildings. The methods are demonstrated on three heritage sites of varying size and complexity, achieving overall accuracies of 94.74% for multi-level storey separation and 92.75% for the building model creation. Additionally, the automated door and window detection methodology achieved absolute mean dimensional errors of 6.3 cm.

Abstract:

A multi-Storey steel frame building against earthquakes has always been a challenge for structural engineering and researchers. Many seismic protection systems have been investigated overtime where the Base Isolation system has widely been used and implemented. It works on the principle of dissociation of substructure to the superstructure. In the present paper, different multi-storey steel frame buildings are evaluated, which are mounted with Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) as a base isolator. LRB has been designed in compliance with the FEMA and ASCE guidelines. Further, a relative study is presented for evaluating the traditional fixed-base structure with a base-isolated building by performing a time history analysis. Base shear, inter-storey drift, acceleration, and displacements are examined as a result of the study. The outcome shows significant contributions towards reducing acceleration, inter-storey drift and base shear distributed over the floors. Moreover, LRB not only absorbs the seismic energy but also substantially decreases the destructive effect during an earthquake.

Abstract:

Multi-storey buildings tend to get damaged mainly during earthquake. Seismic analysis is a tool for the estimation of structural response in the process of designing earthquake resistant structures and/or retrofitting vulnerable existing structures. The principle purpose of this work is to analyze and design a building with a shear wall and also to find the appropriate position of shear wall that result in maximum resistance towards lateral forces and minimum displacement of the structure. In this study, a G+7 multi-storey building of 15 m ×20 m in plan area has been chosen and modelled using ETABS. The developed model was validated by solving manually and the results were validated in ETABS. Thereafter, 4 different new plans were modelled in ETABS located in the same earthquake zone area. These plans have shear wall concepts are implemented on the building at four different locations. Seismic, vibration and response spectrum analysis were performed on these structures. Salient parameters such as storey stiffness, storey displacement and storey drift were computed using the ETABS model. These were compared with that of the frame having no shear walls. By comparing the results obtained at different shear wall locations, the best plan with the shear wall having minimum lateral storey displacement and maximum stiffness is suggested for this location.

Abstract:

In multi-storey structural wall buildings, the structural walls are required to resist additional shear force due to their interactions with the floors and gravity-resisting system, which is not fully catered for in current seismic design provisions and assessment guidelines. This paper scrutinizes the mechanics of the interaction between structural reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls, floors and gravity frames in multi-storey RC structural wall buildings during elastic and nonlinear response phases. It also investigates the implications of this interaction on design of multi-story RC wall buildings. Generic expressions are derived to predict the drift and rotation profiles of multi-storey RC wall buildings. Then, a simple hand calculation method is developed to estimate the system (moment) overstrength of multi-storey RC wall buildings due to system (wall-floor-frames) interaction. The proposed method is applied to a prototype building with different slab dimensions and stiffness, and verified by comparing with the system overstrength factor obtained using finite element analysis. The simplified method estimates, and the nonlinear finite element analyses results agree, that a system overstrength factor of 1.7 can be used to account for the 3D interaction between the structural walls, floors and gravity frames in design and assessment of typical ductile RC wall buildings.

The Construction Industry, which was badly hit by the demonetisation, is getting back to normalcy with construction activities coming up in full swing. Chennai City and its outskirts are buzzed with building work from small apartments to tall towers. Next to agriculture, construction industry is the source of employment for a large number of people, mostly uneducated. The piquant situation is that in some parts of the state the activities have come to a “slow going” due to paucity of river sand and whereas in the City and its outskirts, the work is going on uninterrupted. While the small builders are worst hit by the non-availability of river sand, the big builders manage the activities. The reason is that they have rate contract with two to three large suppliers for sand. Moreover, they are also using M Sand in the construction activities.

It is noted that in order to ensure the reliability of the structures of buildings and structures under special impacts, it is necessary to have a clear regulation in the system of regulatory documentation of the Russian Federation. Most calculations for progressive collapse are made for frame buildings. In this paper, one of the approaches to solving the problem of survivability is proposed on the example of calculating a multi-storey building of a wall structural system for progressive collapse with a sequential failure of the most loaded walls of the first floor. The change in the stress-strain state of the building's load-bearing structures with successive failure of the walls of the first floor at each stage of the calculation is shown.

Abstract:

The magnitude 6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch on the 22nd February 2011 caused widespread damage to the multi-storey buildings within Christchurch’s central business district (CBD). Damage to the facades of these buildings was a clear contributor to the overall building damage. This paper presents the damage assessment of the facade systems from a survey of 217 multi-storey buildings in the Christchurch CBD. The survey covers only buildings greater than three stories in height, excluding the majority of unreinforced masonry facades, of which damage has been well documented. Since a building can have more than one type of facade system, a total of 371 facade systems are surveyed. Observation of facade damage is discussed and is presented in terms of its performance level. Trends in facade performance are examined in relation the structural parameters such as construction age and height.
