Dynamic Analysis of Multistorey Building using Response Spectrum Method and Seismic Coefficient Method – A Comparison

Abstract

Frequency of earthquake occurrence has expanded causing extreme harm to human life and property. Consequently need of exact seismic examination of structures emerges. There are various static and dynamic techniques for seismic investigation out of which seismic coefficient technique and response spectrum method are used in this research. In this paper these techniques are connected for seismic investigation of G+10 multistoried building. Response spectrum analysis of building is carried out using advanced version of software STAAD-PRO-V8i whereas seismic coefficient analysis is done using hand calculation from Codal formula. Comparative study these earthquake methods are carried out and presented and explained here.
