INFLUENCES OF BRACING SYSTEM IN RC STRUCTURE ON SLOPING GROUND UNDER WIND LOADS

In this work effect of wind velocity on building with and without bracing resting on a sloping ground has been studied, bracing with a frame structure resist a lateral load generate from wind and earthquake loads , The present study to determining the behavior of with and without bracing building structure on a sloping ground during effect of wind loads. 60 models of a three different height and different sloping ground such as 1) building without brace 2) building with diagonal brace 3) building with x-brace 4) building with chevron brace(inverted v brace) ,resting on a different angle sloping ground is consider for analysis, Stadd-Pro V8i software is used for analysis. to study the parameter such as displacement, storey drift, bending moment, shear force, axial forces, by using static method. From analysis conclude that increasing in sloping ground and height of building displacement and storey drift increases, A lateral displacement and storey drift is reduced by using inverted v bracing (chevron brace) compare to diagonal brace and x-brace, axial force in column not changed by providing any type of bracing and increases in ground slope axial force increases minutely, in case of column shear force is reduced by x- brace and chevron brace (inverted v brace) of different height of a structure, bending moment in column reduced by inverted v brace. In case of beam shear force reduced by x-brace and bending moment reduced by providing x type of bracing.
