Finite element analysis using Staad-Pro for irregular L-shape Building by Time History Analysis
Abstract: To perform well in an earthquake, a building should possess four main attributes, namelysimple and regular configuration, and adequate lateral strength, stiffness and ductility.Buildings having simple regular geometry and uniformly distributed mass and stiffness inplanes well as in elevation, suffer much less damage than buildings with irregularconfigurations. Impairment can be in the form of loss of non-structural element, damage tostructural components, and collapse of structural element leading to progressive failure …
