A Review of Seismic Response of Three Different High-Rise Multistorey Structure

Civil Engineering

Extreme lateral drift can contribute significantly to cracking in formation, causing structural damage. Structural damage in turn will reduce the capacity of the structure and weaken it to the intended design capacity. Typically, lateral drift is more pronounced on tall and tall structures such as tall buildings and bridges. A specific method used to control lateral drift is structural bracing, which works by increasing the stiffness and stability of the structure. This article reviews the effect of various types of structural bracing on the structural performance of buildings. The history of structural bracing is visited and the differences between several types of buildings and loads, mechanisms, technical details, suitability for advantages and limitations, and several structural bracing for general effects on structural behavior and performance are analyzed. Adequate and efficient structural reinforcement is relevant to each high-rise building, as it will create safer, more durable and more economical buildings, which are cheaper to maintain throughout the lifetime of buildings in the future.
