Abstract

Shear walls are specially built structural walls used in structures to resist horizontal stresses caused in the wall's plane by wind, earthquakes, and other factors. Shear walls have a high in-plane stiffness and strength, which allows them to withstand massive horizontal stresses while still supporting gravity loads. There is a lot of info available to design and research on shear wall. However, there is little discussion in the literature on where the shear wall should be located in multi-story buildings. The placement of the shear wall must be determined in order to be effective, efficient, and perfect. Shear walls may be highly helpful in resisting lateral stresses caused by wind or earthquakes when they are placed in appropriate place in a structure. The major goal of this study is to find the best arrangement for shear walls in multi-story buildings. Various models of twenty-story buildings in zone IV are investigated in this research by shifting the placements of shear walls to determine factors such as lateral displacement, story drift and base shear. Following IS 1893 (Part-1):2016, both linear static and linear dynamic techniques of analysis were implemented. Using ETABS software, all of the frame models were seismically analysed for various load combinations in accordance with IS 1893 (Part-1):2016.
