Comparative Pushover Analysis of Special Moment Resisting Frames of Steel Structure considering IS18168:2023 and Reinforced Concrete Structure

Abstract

In this paper, study about the seismic analysis of the special moment resisting frame for Steel structure and Reinforced concrete Structure by the pushover analysis with the help of the ETAB20 software, which is a product of the Computer and Structure & Inc. The code used for seismic analysis is Indian Standard CODE 1893 part1:2016. The method used in this analysis is Nonlinear static Analysis, in which static analysis represents the Response Spectrum method. The main aims of this paper are to study the Pushover curve comparison between Steel Structure & RC Structure of Special moment resisting frame and which one performs better in the pushover analysis. The main purpose to choose a special moment resisting frame is that frame that resists the strong ground motion during the earthquake. After analysis, we can say that which frame performs better when we consider IS 18168:2023 for steel structure. The designing criteria of the Special Moment Resisting Frame for steel structure and RC structure are given in the Indian Standard Code 1893 part1:2016.
