Dynamic Analysis

This study focuses on the seismic retrofitting of frame structures, analyzing both sway and non-sway conditions using ETABS for dynamic and P-delta analysis. For three or four storey buildings, P-delta analysis is utilized, while dynamic analysis is applied for taller structures. The design process involves transferring loads from slabs to footings using SAFE software, ensuring that allowable loads do not exceed ultimate loads.

P-delta and dynamic analysis

Abstract

This study includes the seismic retrofitting of frame structures, the frame structure has the tendency
of sway and non-sway, when there is sway the structure is designed with ETABS and thus, the
dynamic analysis and P-delta analysis is done, when the frame is three or four storey high, P-delta
analysis is done, and more than three storey or four storey building is there, it is designed for
dynamic loads, and dynamic analysis is done, its values are inserted, the sway and non sway frames
with the elasticity of structure is there, the loads are transferred from slabs to beams to columns to
footings, SAFE, is the software to design the structure, loads are transferred from ETABS to SAFE,
and thus either combined or strap footing is designed, contours are read for the allowable loads, and
these allowable loads must not exceed loads at ultimate, strips are assigned and thus, structure is
designed
