Abstract

Past earthquakes showed poor performance of reinforced concrete framed buildings infilled with masonry wall. This study focuses on the evaluation of G+3 storeyed residential Reinforced Concrete (RC) building with brick masonry wall subjected to earthquake load. The influence of masonry on the seismic resistance of RC building is studied. The strut action with different percentage of opening for doors and windows are analysed. The building is assumed to be located in seismic zone III. The building is designed as per IS 456-2000 and the lateral loads are determined as per sixth revision of IS 1893(Part 1)-2002. This study is carried out with nonlinear parameters using pushover analysis in ETABS.
