Analysis of multi-storied building of varying thickness of shear wall on sloping ground

Ashwin Kumar S V, Ashwini G P G Student Department of civil engineering, EWIT, Karnataka, India Assistant Professor, Department of civil engineering, EWIT, Karnataka, India Abstract—This study is to investigate the effect of different thickness of shear wall on sloping ground of multi-storied buildings. Building models with shear walls are developed using ETABS. The location of the shear walls are kept same and a comparative study is done for different thickness of the shear wall for different height of the building. In each of the cases corresponding Investigate is done for the effect of different thickness of shear wall on multi-storied building.  Total number of models are considered =16  Thickness of shear wall 5”,10”,15” and 20” are considered  Zones to be consider (Zone-II and Zone-V).  Height of structure is considered as 10 storey and 15 storey.
