The present study investigates the formulation of key factors for the modifying factor of the seismic response of the RCC framed staging of the elevated water reservoir. The analysis revealed that three main factors, called reserved force, ductility and redundancy, affect the real value of the response change factor and therefore must be taken into account when determining the change of the appropriate response to be used during the seismic design process. The evaluation of the response modification factor is carried out using a nonlinear static pushover analysis. Pushover analysis is an advanced tool for performing static nonlinear analyzes of framed structures. It is used to evaluate non-linear behavior and provides the sequence and mechanism for forming the plastic hinge..........

The current trends toward buildings of ever increasing heights and the use of light weight, high strength materials, and advanced construction techniques have led to increasingly flexible and lightly damped structures. Understandably, these structures are very sensitive to environmental excitations such as wind, ocean waves and earthquakes. Structural control is one area of current Research that looks promising in attaining reduce structural vibrations during loading such as earthquakes and strong winds. There are three primary classes of supplemental damping devices, categorized into three corresponding control strategies............

Seismic analysis is a non-linear static procedure that uses a simplified non-linear technique to estimate seismic structural deformations. It is an incremental static analysis that is used to determine the forcedisplacement relation or the capacity curve for a structure or a structural element. The analysis involves applying horizontal loads, in a prescribed model, to the structure incrementally, that is, pushing the structure and tracing the total applied cutting force and the associated lateral displacement in each increment, up to the condition of structure or collapse. In art, a computer model of the building is subject to a lateral load of some form (ie inverted or uniform triangular)...........

The earthquake never kills people, but the defective structures. The stability and rigidity of any structure is the main concern in every high-rise building. Partitions are structural elements that resist lateral forces that dominate the resisting frame at the moment. The shear walls are the most preferred structural walls for earthquake resistance. This research concerns the comparison of the shear wall speed structure with durable construction time type. The present study states three type of model, moment resisting frame i.e. model I, Shear wall building concentrically located along X- axis on outer periphery of building i.e. model II and concrete column flange concentrically located on outer periphery along the X-axis i.e. model III.

The flat slab construction is one in which the beam is used in the conventional methods of construction. The slab directly rests on column and the load from the slabs is directly transferred to the columns and then to the foundation. Drops panel or columns are generally provided with column heads or capitals. Grid Slab systems consisting of beams spaced at regular intervals in perpendicular directions, monolithic with slab. They are generally designed for large rooms such as vestibules, auditoriums, theatre halls, show rooms of shops where column free space is often the main requirement............

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) aims to develop automated systems for the continuous monitoring, inspection and damage detection of structures with minimum labour involvement. The first step to set up a SHM system is to incorporate a level of structural sensing capability that is reliable and possesses longterm stability. Smart sensing technologies including the applications of fibre optic sensors, piezoelectric sensors, magnetostrictive sensors and self-diagnosing fibre reinforced composites, possess very important capabilities of monitoring various physical or chemical parameters related to the health and therefore, durable service life of structures. In particular, piezoelectric sensors...........

Culverts are required to be provided under earth embankment for crossing of water course like streams, Nallas across the embankment as road embankment cannot be allowed to obstruct the natural water way. The culverts are also required to balance the flood water on both sides of earth embankment to reduce flood level on one side of road thereby decreasing the water head consequently reducing the flood menace. Culverts can be of different Shapes such as arch, slab and box. These can be constructed with different material such as masonry (brick, stone etc.) or reinforced cement concrete. In this project we design deck slab culvert and also compare them by using different mix design and span.

In recent years the topic of seismic loads and analysis has become of increasing importance in all over the world. This is due largely to the frequency of large magnitude seismic events that have been witnessed, often in large metropolitan areas, typically resulting in tragic loss of life. As a direct result greater efforts have been made to understand and quantify loads that might be experienced during an earthquake. But now-a-days depending on the location's seismicity, its soil properties, the natural frequency of the structure, and its intended use, this method was refined to enable increasingly adequate designs. Buildings have longer periods of vibration and periods of vibration, composed largely of orthogonal, closely spaced modes. Hence, Equivalent static analysis method was adopted...........

RCC Silos are used by a spacious range of industries to store bulk solids in quantities ranging from a few tones to hundreds or thousands of tones. The term silo includes all forms of particulate solids storage structure that might otherwise be referred to as a bin, hopper, grain tank or bunker. Silos are very demanding in cement industries. Hence RCC silos are widely used for storage of granular materials as they are an ideal structural material for the building of permanent bulk-storage facilities for dry granular like fillings. Initially concrete storage units are economical in design and reasonable in cost. Concrete can offer the protection to the stored materials, requires little maintenance, is aesthetically pleasing, and is relatively free of certain structural hazards such as buckling or denting..............

For development of industrial society and global economic expansion, the construction of long span bridges nowadays has rapidly increased. Beside, the construction methods have undergone refinement and they have been further developed to cover many special cases such as progressive construction of cantilever bridges, span-by-span construction of simply supported or continuous spans, balanced cantilever method etc. Currently, among these construction methods, the segmental construction of post-tensioned bridges has been recognized as one of the most efficient type for bridges. This method has great advantages over other kinds of construction, particularly in urban areas where temporary shoring would disrupt traffic and services below, in roadways and over waterways where falsework would not only be expensive...........

This paper consist of various parametric study of seismic retrofitting technique for Reinforce cement concrete(RCC) structure. The building performance is reduces in terms of safety level, strength or capacity due to the variety of causes or situations such as alteration of building units, deterioration of concrete, unskilled work, heavy loads due to extension of structure etc. This is a more difficult scenario for a structural engineer than designing and constructing a new building. Enhancement of the performance of such a deficient buildings can be done by increasing the strength and the strength of building can be increased by the process of retrofitting. The output of a retrofitted structure is aimed higher than that of original structure. Among some retrofitting techniques for strengthening the structure jacketing is applied for strengthening proposed existing structure which is located at low seismicity region............

Analysis, design and modelling of the structure constitute the three major activities in structural engineering practices. Generally structural analysis and design are coupled processes. The structural frame of a building consists of floor and roof slab, and supporting beams ,columns and foundation. All the components of the frame are usually cast together forming a monolithic construction. The resulting frame acts as one integral unit. The rigidity of the connection is also desirable or rather essential for resisting horizontal loads like wind load or earthquake load. While designing the model of building we can calculate the analytical result and from that result we accordingly design different component of building. These are foundation, column, slab, RCC wall, water tank, staircase etc..

Now a days construction of RC frame structure is common due to the simplicity in construction. Infill walls are mainly used for partition and insulation purpose rather than structural purpose. However, during earthquake these infill contributes to the response of the structure and the behavior of the infill frame building is different from that predicted for bare frame structure. Infill behave like a compression strut between column and beam .For this purpose linear dynamic analysis have been performed on masonry infill RC frame structure to study influence of variation of strength of structure with n without infill wall , effect of infill on dynamic parameter like natural period , story drift, story shear, displacement and hinge status . In this effect of infill on high rise building is studied. All analysis is carried out by software STAAD PRO v8i.............

Water is life line for every kind of creature in this world. All around the world liquid storage tanks are used extensively by municipalities and industries for water supply, fire fighting systems, inflammable liquids and other chemicals. Thus Water tanks plays a vital role for public utility as well as industrial structure having basic purpose to secure constant water supply from longer distance with sufficient static head to the desired location under the effect of gravitational force. In such situations elevated water tanks become an important part of life. According to seismic code IS 1893(Part-1):2000, more than 60% of India is prone to earthquakes. The analysis was conducted as per the specifications of IS 3370
