Comparative Study of Buildings by IS standards and ASCE Standards under Seismic Forces

Sayyed Javad | Hamane Ajay A.

Abstract: This research article is intended to compare the seismic analysis of various shapes of high rise buildings with different International Codes. Two different famous structural building codes have been adopted. Those are Indian Standard and American Standard. In R. C. buildings, frames are considered as main structural elements, which resist shear, moment and torsion effectively. These frames be subjected to variety of loads, where lateral loads are always predominant. Infrastructures of Gulf countries are always notable as they mainly follow AMERICAN standards & EURO standards for construction development. In view of the demand of such code of practice across the developing countries like India, an attempt is made to compare AMERICAN standards with INDIAN standards under Seismic Forces.
