The rces stimulte forces in the ssocited ems nd columns so tht ll work s one like truss with ll memers sujected to stresses tht re for the most prt xil. This xil rection results in less moments nd in turn smller sizes of ems nd column sections compred to moment resisting frmes. This pper presents the elstic seismic response of reinforced concrete frmes with reinforced concrete rcing memer in digonlly rced pttern which re nlyzed numericlly for twelve storey uilding with 5- y structures. This pproch focuses on the rrngements of digonl rces in prticulr y, level nd comintions thereof to reduce the lterl displcement ultimtely to chieve n economy in comprison with similr moment resisting frmes. Results re concluded from grphs nd discussed comprehensively. Keywords Bre Frmes; Bywise Brced Frmes; Levelwise Brced Frmes; Digonlly Brced Frmes; Concentriclly Brced Frmes (CBF); Outriggers I. INTRODUCTION In order to mke multi-storey structures stronger nd stiffer, which re more susceptile to erthquke nd wind forces, the cross sections of the memer increses from top to ottom this mkes the structure uneconomicl owing to sfety of structure [5]. Therefore, it is necessry to provide specil mechnism nd/or mechnisms tht to improve lterl stility of the structure. Brced frmes develop their confronttion to lterl forces y the rcing ction of digonl memers. Fully rced frmes re more rigid. From sving view point ritrrily rced ones hve lest forces induced in the structure nd t the sme time produce mximum displcement within prescried limits [10]. Frmes cn e nlyzed y vrious methods [8]. However, the method of nlysis dopted depends upon the types of frme, its configurtion of (portl y or multi-y) multi-storey frme nd degree of indetermincy [8]. The structurl nlysis ws sed on structurl models plotted in the STAAD - structurl nlysis nd design commercil softwre. The frme shll e designed to resist the effect of grvity nd erthquke lodings for strength nd serviceility without id of digonl rces first, to ultimtely represent proposl of n introduction of digonl rces hving economicl structure with good ehvior nd convenient rchitecturl distriution. Shn Hu Xu & Di To Niu [1] hd worked on seven reinforced concrete (RC) rced frme, one reinforced concrete frme nd one reinforced concrete sher wll re tested under verticl loding nd reversed cyclic loding. They focused minly on the filure mechnism, strength, degrdtion in stiffness, nd hysteresis loop of the RC rced frme. According to their study, in rced frmes, not only lterl resistnce nd stiffness enhnced, ut lso energy dissiption mount incresed significntly. A.R.

M. Mhdi Mohseni [2] hd worked on nonliner seismic ehvior of RC Frmes with RC Brces. This study focuses on evlution of strength, stiffness, ductility nd energy sorption of reinforced concrete rced frmes nd comprison with similr moment resisting frmes nd frmes with sher wll. J. P.

Ary [3] hd worked on two-y, six-story frme designed y limit stte method sujected to rtificil erthquke nd iliner hysteresis model ws ssumed for girders, elsto-plstic model ws ssumed for columns nd simple tringulr hysteresis model ws ssumed for reinforced concrete rcing. It is concluded tht the inelstic seismic response of X nd K rced concrete frmes with intermedite rcing memers is stisfctory. M.A. Youssef, H. Ghffrzdeh, M. Nehdi [4] hd worked on the efficiency of using rced RC frmes is experimentlly evluted. Two cyclic loding tests were conducted on moment frme nd rced frme. The moment frme ws designed nd detiled ccording to current seismic codes. A rtionl design methodology ws dopted to design the rced frme including the connections etween the rce memers nd the concrete frme. B. Bywise nd Levelwise Brced Frmes To study the ehvior of ywise nd levelwise rcing pttern 5 y 12 storeyed structures re modeled nd nlyzed numericlly. A typicl rcing pttern of this type is shown in Figure 2 ( nd ). A numer of structures nd their different ptterns with nd without rces hve een nlyzed. The responses of rced frmes of different configurtions hve een compred with re frme nd the sme lso hve een compred with ech other. Behviors of fully rced frmes with the prtilly rced frmes lso studied. II. DESCRIPTION OF STUDY BUILDING STRUCTURES A. Bre nd Fully Brced Frmes In order to study the ehvior of moment resisting digonl rced frmes (re, fully, prtilly y rced nd prtilly level rced nd outrigger frmes) 5 y 12 storey structures re modeled nd nlyzed numericlly. The sections of columns re reduced from top to ottom which is sme for every 3 storey (1-3, 4-6, 7-9, nd 10-12) in order to chieve n economy in re frmes itself. In ll cses, spn length nd story elevtion re 4 nd 3 meters, respectively. A typicl frme of this type is shown in Figure 1. Fig y 12 storey structures with prticulr By () & Level () Brced lgorithms. C. Outrigger i.e. Prtilly Brced Frmes The logic of plcing the rces ywise nd levelwise shre the lgorithm which llows for comining them evolving rced frme with outrigger i.e. prtilly rced frme which results the new comintion of ove two scenrios. To study the ehvior of such outrigger frmes 5 y 12 storeyed structures re modeled nd nlyzed numericlly. A typicl frme of this type is shown in Figure 3. Fig. 1.

III. PARAMETRIC STUDY Numers of cses re tried for Bywise nd Levelwise Brced Frmes. The following Tle 1 shows totl numer of cses for Bywise nd Levelwise rced frmes for considered structures. In cse of levelwise rced frmes it is wise to restrict ourselves up to for higher level comintions since it will not going to procure ny economy. Prtilly rced frmes hving comintion of ove two types i.e. ywise nd levelwise rced frmes shll e nlyzed to study nd compre the response of such frmes. For this work 5 By 12 storeyed with 350 mm em depth structure ws used. TABLE I. NO. OF CASES CONSIDERED FOR BAYWISE & LEVELWISE BRACED FRAMES FOR 12 STOREY STRUCTURES. No. of Bys Brced No. of Bys Brced t time One Two Three Four Five Totl 5-y No. of Levels Brced No. of Levels Brced t time One Two Three Four Five Totl 5-y Totl No. of Cses Studied 328 redesigned nd the minimum required cross sections nd steel percentge ws clculted. Ultimtely cost comprison is crried out to compute economy. C. Optimum Bywise Loction for Brcing Frmes 5 y 12 Storey Structures Fully rced frmes descried previously, when nlyzed, exhiit the vlues of forces nd displcements which re chnging with the vrition of numer of prmeters. However, it ws noticed tht the frmes underwent very smll lterl displcement thn ws permissile. It is ut ovious tht, when such frmes re prtilly rced i.e. rced ll long the height in prticulr or comintion of numer of ys which is less thn totl numers of ys for the frme, similrly when rced ll long the level or comintion of numer of levels concerned, will produce lrger displcement compred to re nd fully rced frmes ut within permissile limit i.e H [9]. Hence it ws decided to find out such possiility of developing prticulr pttern for prtilly rced frmes, which would produce smller forces for worst lod comintions. It goes without sying tht the rcing pttern tried lwys stisfied strength s well s serviceility criterion. A. Check Digit Algorithems Nturl logrithm of reference numer N s dimensionless prmeter hs een used s sciss with respect to considered prmeters. The reference numer used here is pure numer, which is uniquely specified for the frme nd rcing pttern tried. The check digits specil lgorithms re used for lph nd/or lphnumeric chrcter fields. Ech chrcter is ssigned numeric equivlent. The numeric equivlents re weighted nd the products re summed. The totl is divided y the modulus to determine the reminder. The reminder is compred to pre-ssigned index to determine the check digit. B. Internl Forces Forces induced viz. xil force, sher force nd ending moment in one prticulr worst loded column segment is considered for this purpose s shown in Figure 2. In order to fcilitte the direct comprison etween re nd fully nd/or prtilly rced frmes the ltter hve een nlyzed for the sme geometry of mutully perpendiculr/orthogonl memers for the sme loding comintion for which the re frme yielded the mximum design force in the memers so selected s shown in Figure 3 (, & c). However, once the design forces re evluted for fully nd/or prtilly rced structures ll individul segments re Fig. 4. Optimum y rcing pttern for 5 y 12 storey structures Here dimensionless prmeter (R ) i.e. rtio of xil force which is the rtio of vlue of xil force in memer C1 for ll cses of ys rced to xil force in sme memer of re frme s shown in Figure 1 ove. Sme is pplicle to rtio of sher force (R s ) nd to rtio ending moment (R m ). The vlue of internl forces in worst loded column segment (C 1 ) of re frme s shown in Figure 1 ove is chosen s reference vlue for rtio R /R s /R m.

From which it concludes tht some of the rced frmes my llow reduction in effect of considered prmeters hence; it would e dvntgeous to suggest certin working rnge from specified/ccepted minimum to mximum for vrious internl forces concerned within which numer of rcing ptterns/cses produce the force eing considered for different cses. However, numer of cses my e found common to ll of them re the optimum cses s fr s force levels re concerned. The frmes which pper etween those cceptle rnges were further tken into ccount for the nlysis nd design purpose. Often symmetricl cses re tken into ccount nd tried in cse of ywise rcings only.

Amongst ll the so clled est choices there is only one or more thn one choice/choices is mde ville which reduce the totl cost of structures compred to re frmes, when ll memers re designed to crry the most criticl comintion of the lrgest developed forces. This rcing pttern/ these rcing ptterns is/re the optimum solution/solutions. It is found tht such rcing pttern is most economicl thn fully rced one.

The following Figure 8 (, & c) shows the prtilly rced frme for the comintion of specific ys nd levels rced. The respective comintions nd economy is tulted s shown in Tle 3 ove. F. Storey Drift The lterl displcement of frme ws oserved t common point t specific position in 5 y 12 storey structures. The comprison is mde etween re, fully rced, prtilly rced i.e. optimum y rced nd level rced nd outrigger. It ws checked whether the structure stisfies mximum permissile reltive lterl drift criterion s per IS: (Prt-I) which is 0.004H [11]. TABLE IV.

Vritions of lterl displcement long height of structure for 5 By 12 storeyed with 350 mm em depth for L/C (1.5 D.L E.Q.) For re frmes the lterl drift is well within the permissile one, ut it is incresing s one move towrds the top most point of structure. Also the lterl displcements for fully rced frmes re getting sustntilly reduced s compred with re frme, ut these re uneconomicl structures from sving point of view. For optimlly y rced frmes nd for outriggers the lterl displcements re getting reduced y ner out hlf nd more s compred to the re frmes. There is no vlule reduction in the lterl displcement for optimlly levelwise rced frmes tulted s shown in Tle 4 ove. Conclusion It concludes tht optimlly rced frmes re stiff, strong, nd n economicl structurl system. Fully rced frmes re very conservtive in so fr s lterl drift is concerned ut uneconomicl nd t the sme time optimlly rced one hve lest forces induced in the structure nd produce mximum displcement ut within prescried limit. However, further work is needed in order to chieve more economy y developing new scenrio i.e. cellwise rced frmes. This work is importnt, ecuse rced frmes re very efficient nd effective system for resisting lterl forces. Ppers presented in NCRET-2K16 Conference cn e ccessed from P g e 78
