Abstract
The earthquake analysis of multistorey structure is done by linear and nonlinear methods. Response spectrum method of analysis
is linear dynamic analysis. For nonlinear dynamic analysis time history method is used. In this paper, response spectrum method
is used for linear analysis. For nonlinear analysis, time history method is used. For time history method, time history function of
Bhuj earthquake is used. Both the analyses are done using ETABs software. To study seismic behaviour, base shear, time period,
storey displacement parameters are studied
Keywords: linear analysis, nonlinear analysis, response spectrum method, time history method, ETABs.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
The earthquakes occurred in recent past have indicated that
if structures are constructed without considering seismic
forces, not properly designed, they will undergo huge
destruction and also loss of life. So it is necessary to analyze
structure for seismic responses. The analysis is performed
on basis of external action, behaviour of structural material,
type of structural model selected. Linear static analysis can
be used for small structures. Linear dynamic analysis can be
done by response spectrum method. In this method peak
response of a structure is obtained directly from earthquake
response.
Nonlinear method gives actual behaviour of structure. In
nonlinear static analysis method, to study behaviour of
structure, capacity curve is used. Capacity curve is relation
between base shear and displacement of roof. It is also
called Push over analysis. Nonlinear dynamic analysis is
known as time history analysis. For this type of analysis,
time history of a particular earthquake for a given structure
is required. This method is used to determine seismic
behaviour of structure under dynamic load.
The seismic responses and seismic performance of structure
can be evaluated by dynamic response of equivalent single
degree of freedom system obtained from multi degree of
freedom system. The second method is obtaining responses
by analysis of multi degree of freedom system.
1.2 Linear Dynamic Analysis
For linear dynamic analysis, response spectrum method is
used. In this method, peak responses of a structure during
the earthquake are obtained directly from earthquake
responses. The response spectrum is an envelope of upper
bound responses based on several different ground motions.
The design spectrum given in IS 1893: 2002 Part 1 is used.
This spectrum is based on strong motion records of eight
Indian earthquakes. In response spectrum method, maximum
values of displacements and member forces are calculated
for each mode, using design spectra. Response spectra help
to calculate peak structural responses under linear range,
which can be used to calculate lateral forces developed in
structure due to earthquake. This helps for earthquake
resistant design.
1.3 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis
Nonlinear method is most accurate method for calculation of
seismic responses of structure. For this type of analysis
earthquake time history of representative earthquake is
required. The base of the structure is subjected to actual
ground motion which is representation of ground
acceleration verses time. The ground acceleration is
determined at small time steps to give ground motion record.
In this dynamic analysis of structure is done at each
increment of time. Three main parameters for time history
are magnitude, distance and soil condition category. For
time history analysis, recorded ground motion database from
past natural events are used.
2. MODELLING
2.1 General
For parametric study of multistorey structure, ETABS
software is used. Models for G+14, G+17, and G+20 are
generated. These models are analysed by response spectrum
and time history method. ETABS is completely integrated
software for analysis and design of reinforced structure.
Creation of model, modification of model, analysis, all are
accomplished using single interface. A single structural
model can be used for wide variety of different type analysis
and design.

4. CONCLUSION
The study is based on linear and nonlinear analysis of
multistorey structure for finding base shear, storey
displacement and time period.
1. The storey shear results obtained for G+14, G+17, and G+
20 by response spectrum method are respectively 37%,
30.63%, and 34.24% more than those obtained by time
history method.
2. The storey displacement results obtained for G+14, G+17,
and G+ 20 by response spectrum method are respectively
44.59%, 30.63%, and 34.24% more than those obtained by
time history method.
3. From results it is observed that time period of structure
increases with increase in height.
4. As base shear depends on weight of structure, it is
observed that it increases with increase in height both by
response spectrum and time history method.
4. From results it is recommended that time history analysis
should be performed as it predicts the structural response
more accurately than response spectrum analysis.

Comparative parametric study of linear and nonlinear behavior of multistory structures

  • 1. IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Volume: 04 Issue: 04 | Apr-2015, Available @ http://www.ijret.org 815 COMPARATIVE PARAMETRIC STUDY OF LINEAR AND NONLINEAR BEHAVIOR OF MULTISTORY STRUCTURES Mrunmayi Gursale1 , P. S. Patil2 1 Student M. Tech Structure, Rajarambapu Institute of Technology, Islampur 2 Professor Civil Engineering Dept, Rajarambapu Institute of Technology, Islampur Abstract The earthquake analysis of multistorey structure is done by linear and nonlinear methods. Response spectrum method of analysis is linear dynamic analysis. For nonlinear dynamic analysis time history method is used. In this paper, response spectrum method is used for linear analysis. For nonlinear analysis, time history method is used. For time history method, time history function of Bhuj earthquake is used. Both the analyses are done using ETABs software. To study seismic behaviour, base shear, time period, storey displacement parameters are studied Keywords: linear analysis, nonlinear analysis, response spectrum method, time history method, ETABs. -------------------------------------------------------------------***------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 General The earthquakes occurred in recent past have indicated that if structures are constructed without considering seismic forces, not properly designed, they will undergo huge destruction and also loss of life. So it is necessary to analyze structure for seismic responses. The analysis is performed on basis of external action, behaviour of structural material, type of structural model selected. Linear static analysis can be used for small structures. Linear dynamic analysis can be done by response spectrum method. In this method peak response of a structure is obtained directly from earthquake response. Nonlinear method gives actual behaviour of structure. In nonlinear static analysis method, to study behaviour of structure, capacity curve is used. Capacity curve is relation between base shear and displacement of roof. It is also called Push over analysis. Nonlinear dynamic analysis is known as time history analysis. For this type of analysis, time history of a particular earthquake for a given structure is required. This method is used to determine seismic behaviour of structure under dynamic load. The seismic responses and seismic performance of structure can be evaluated by dynamic response of equivalent single degree of freedom system obtained from multi degree of freedom system. The second method is obtaining responses by analysis of multi degree of freedom system. 1.2 Linear Dynamic Analysis For linear dynamic analysis, response spectrum method is used. In this method, peak responses of a structure during the earthquake are obtained directly from earthquake responses. The response spectrum is an envelope of upper bound responses based on several different ground motions. The design spectrum given in IS 1893: 2002 Part 1 is used. This spectrum is based on strong motion records of eight Indian earthquakes. In response spectrum method, maximum values of displacements and member forces are calculated for each mode, using design spectra. Response spectra help to calculate peak structural responses under linear range, which can be used to calculate lateral forces developed in structure due to earthquake. This helps for earthquake resistant design. 1.3 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis Nonlinear method is most accurate method for calculation of seismic responses of structure. For this type of analysis earthquake time history of representative earthquake is required. The base of the structure is subjected to actual ground motion which is representation of ground acceleration verses time. The ground acceleration is determined at small time steps to give ground motion record. In this dynamic analysis of structure is done at each increment of time. Three main parameters for time history are magnitude, distance and soil condition category. For time history analysis, recorded ground motion database from past natural events are used. 2. MODELLING 2.1 General For parametric study of multistorey structure, ETABS software is used. Models for G+14, G+17, and G+20 are generated. These models are analysed by response spectrum and time history method. ETABS is completely integrated software for analysis and design of reinforced structure. Creation of model, modification of model, analysis, all are accomplished using single interface. A single structural model can be used for wide variety of different type analysis and design.

CONCLUSION The study is based on linear and nonlinear analysis of multistorey structure for finding base shear, storey displacement and time period. 1. The storey shear results obtained for G+14, G+17, and G+ 20 by response spectrum method are respectively 37%, 30.63%, and 34.24% more than those obtained by time history method. 2. The storey displacement results obtained for G+14, G+17, and G+ 20 by response spectrum method are respectively 44.59%, 30.63%, and 34.24% more than those obtained by time history method. 3. From results it is observed that time period of structure increases with increase in height. 4. As base shear depends on weight of structure, it is observed that it increases with increase in height both by response spectrum and time history method. 4. From results it is recommended that time history analysis should be performed as it predicts the structural response more accurately than response spectrum analysis. REFERENCES [1] Colin M.
