Comparative Study of the Seismic Behaviour of G+20 Storey Building for Unsymmetrical Plan Area Using Light Weight Concrete and Normal Weight Concrete
Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: : This research examines and compares the performance of structural lightweight concrete (SLWC) made with scoria and normal weight concrete (NWC), and normal and light weight concrete (NAL) in multi-storey buildings. A G+20 multi-storey unsymmetrical plan building is analysed using the response spectrum method with SLWC and NWC. Bending moment, shear force, storey shear, axial force, storey drift, and storey displacement are considered. The results show that SLWC can be used to reduce the weight of buildings without sacrificing strength or performance. This can lead to significant cost savings on construction and materials
