Abstract:

The main objective of this research was to identify the effect floor slab on buildings seismic performance. The behavior of the slab and on how it contributes to the lateral strength is very significant for the analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures; this paper deals with the study focused on the effect of slabs at the joints in moment-frame structures subjected to large seismic deformations. Two interior beam-column subassemblies, one without a slab and one having floor slabs with varied slab parameters, were modelled. The methodology adopted in this paper was to have a strong column and weak beam concept. This methodology was used to assure that yielding point will occur only in the beams and the joint and the column will behave in an elastic manner. This same model was created in ABAQUS and ETABS 2016. For the frames model push over analysis was carried out using IS standard codes of practice.
