This research aims to assess the seismic vulnerability and optimize the design of multi-story reinforced concrete structures using shear walls.
Conducted non-linear static pushover analyses and dynamic time-history simulations on 12-story building models.
Evaluated structures designed per Indian Standard IS 1893 (Part 1): 2016.
Analyzed plastic hinge formation and performance-based design optimization.
Incorporating shear walls reduced maximum inter-story drift ratios and shear demands on columns.
The structures exhibited superior resilience and ductility under maximum considered earthquake events (MCE).
Seismic energy dissipation was effectively redistributed across structural members.
