2.3 Structural system
The structural system consists of Solid and Ribbed slab floor systems which are braced and
supported by main frame of the building. Each floor slab is rigged enough in plane and is
capable of bearing its own load and loads on the floor. Vertical load from each floor is
transferred to the building main frame at the respective level. Lateral earthquake load at each
floor is transferred and supported by the building main frame. The lateral and vertical loads
transfers to main frame of the building are used to design the main frame components. The
main frame of the building is constituted of beams and columns which intern are designed
according to their own design requirements. The vertical design loads transferred to the main
frame of the building including the self-weight of the main frame are taken as super structural
load. Inferring the super structural load, property of the foundation ground, construction
simplicity and economic consideration isolated footings at column end of the main frame and
masonry trench foundation at the periphery of the building are used. Components of the
structural system are listed and described here under.

3. MODELING AND ANALYSIS
For the analysis of the structure and determination of design action effects, the structure has
been modeled with the finite element software ETABS version 21.
3.1 Analysis Inputs and Cases
Method of Analysis: Response Spectrum Analysis with Euro code 8-2004, response spectrum
curve used.
Combination of earthquake load in the orthogonal direction: Combination of EQ action
effects has been taken into account as per the code requirements. That is; the primary
earthquake direction along the chosen horizontal direction plus 30% of the orthogonal
direction.
Primary seismic elements: The primary seismic elements are designed to resist the expected
earthquake force on the building. Because the structure at hand is a two-way solid slab system,
it is the role of the slab to act as rigid diaphragm in connecting the vertical elements. Thus, the
slab is treated as non-seismic element with a stiffness reduction value of 15%.
Stiffness of Structural Members for Assessing structure's stability and safety:
Section 5.7 of EBCS EN 1998:2014 states that maximum deformations due to the seismic
design situation shall be calculated from an analysis of the structure in the seismic design
situation, in which the contribution of secondary seismic elements to lateral stiffness is
neglected and primary seismic elements are modeled with their cracked flexural and shear
stiffness. Thus, the bending and shear stiffness of seismic elements (Column, beam and shear
wall) is reduced by half (ES EN 1998 section 4.3.1(7)) and the torsional stiffness of beams and
columns is reduced by 90%.
3.2 Mass Sources
For mass source, from self and specific mass and loads option is used. With this option,
ETABS adds the following masses.
Self –Weight, building mass associated with the element mass obtained by multiplying
the volume of each structural element times its specified mass per unit volume.
Loads, Weight defined by the load combination divided by the gravitational multipliers,
g. Only the global Z-direction loads are considered when calculating the mass.
Specified Mass, possible additional mass assigned to account for partitions, cladding
and so forth as well as link property assignments.

3.5.2 Damage Limitation Check
The “damage limitation requirement” is considered to have been satisfied, if, under a seismic
action having a larger probability of occurrence than the design seismic action corresponding
to the “no-collapse requirement” in accordance with 2.1(1)P and 3.2.1(3), the inter-story drifts
are limited in accordance with 4.4.3.2. Additional damage limitation verifications might be
required in the case of buildings important for civil protection or containing sensitive
equipment. Checking the damage limitation of the so used claddings or partitions. The damage
limitation requirements should be verified in terms of the inter story drift (𝑑𝑟 ) from ES EN
1998-1-1:2015, cl.4.4.3.2 using the equation below:

Where: - 𝑑𝑟 is the difference of the average lateral displacement.
V is the reduction factor which takes into account the lower return period of the seismic
action depends on the importance classes of the building. The recommended values of ν are 0.4
for importance classes III and IV and ν = 0.5 for importance classes I and II.
h is the story height
And the damage limitation according to ES EN 1998-1-1:2015, cl.4.4.3 for non-structural
elements of brittle material attached to the structure is 𝒅𝒓 v ≤ 0,005h. Extracting the maximum
story drift along both direction; for buildings having ductile non-structural elements: 𝑑𝑟 v ≤
0.0075h, and for buildings having non-structural elements fixed in a way so as not to interfere
with structural deformations, or without non-structural elements: 𝑑𝑟 v ≤ 0.010h

3.5.3 Stability Check
The Stability of the structure is checked as per the code provision.
It’s recommended to check if the stability index θ has a value;
i. θ ≤ 0.10 Stable and Non-Sway desirable and no need of considering p-delta effect
ii. 0.1< θ ≤0.2 sway and should consider P-Delta or second order analysis. The
criterion for taking into account the second-order effect is based on the inter-story
drift sensitivity coefficient θ, which is defined by the equation
𝑃𝑡𝑜𝑡 𝑑𝑟
𝜃=
𝑉𝑡𝑜𝑡 . ℎ
Where: -
𝜃 is the inter-story drift sensitivity coefficient;
𝑃𝑡𝑜𝑡 is the total gravity load at and above story considered in the seismic design situation;
𝑑𝑟 is the design inter-story drift, evaluated as the difference of the average lateral
displacement’s ds at the top and bottom of the story under consideration and calculated in
accordance with 4.3.4;
➢ If linear analysis is performed the displacements induced by the design seismic action
shall be calculated on the basis of the elastic deformations of the structural system by
means of the following simplified expression:
ds= qd de
G+8 MIXED-USE BUILDING 31
STRUCTURAL DESIGN REPORT 2024
ds is the displacement of a point of the structural system induced by the design seismic action;
qd is the displacement behavioral factor, assumed equal to q unless otherwise specified;
de is the displacement of the same point of the structural system, as determined by a linear analysis
based on the design response spectrum in accordance with 3.2.2.5.
The value of ds does not need to be larger than the value derived from the elastic spectrum.
NOTE: - In general qd is larger than q if the fundamental period of the structure is less than TC
When determining the displacements de, the torsional effects of the seismic action shall be taken
into account. For both static and dynamic non-linear analysis, the displacements determined are
those obtained directly from the analysis without further modification.
𝑉𝑡𝑜𝑡 is the total seismic story shear
h is the story height
The second-order effects may approximately be taken into account by multiplying the relevant
seismic action effects by a factor equal to 1/ (1–θ).
The table shown below tries to explain about the computation done for checking the stability
of the structure as per the code provision and it is found that the structure is quite stable and
non-sway as well which it implies that there is no need of considering p-delta or second order
analysis.
