ANALYSIS OF BEAM COLUMN JOINT SUBJECTED TO SEISMIC LATERAL LOADING

Department of Civil Engineering

Beam-column connections are the common junction point of neighboring columns, beams, and slabs. The beam-column connection was one of the weakest links in the moment-resistant reinforced concrete (RC) framed constructions during the recent severe earthquake. Earthquakes are a worldwide phenomenon. Due to the frequency of earthquakes, they are no longer seen as divine occurrences, but rather as scientific phenomena that need investigation. The unpredictable horizontal and vertical ground movements that occur during an earthquake cause building to shake and create inertia forces. Analysis of earthquake-caused damage to moment-resisting RC-framed buildings reveals that failure may be attributable to insufficiently resistant concrete, soft storey, beam-column junction failure owing to poor reinforcements or inappropriate anchoring, and column failure triggering storey mechanism. Perform seismic analysis on an RCC building and validate the results using the StadPro programme. Using IS 1893:2002 and an analogous static approach, seismic analysis is performed. Design of Beam-column Joint in accordance with IS 13920:1993, ACI318-08. The performance of framed constructions is contingent upon both the structural parts and the joints. In seismic circumstances, the design and details of joints are crucial. This research demonstrates that there has been a sufficient modification in the codal provisions on beam-column joints and provides an assessment of the design and details of the structure's beam-column joints. And its purpose is to meet bonding and shear requirements inside the joints.
