📄 Abstract
This research examines the seismic performance of reinforced concrete structures, using a six-story RC dormitory building as an example. It focuses on different soil properties, support and foundation conditions, and site seismicity scenarios that reflect the seismicity of india. The goal of the study is to evaluate the possible consequences of surpassing expected site seismic intensities, which might result in safer infrastructure and communities in the event of future earthquakes. Structural Analysis of Robots For structural study and design, professional software is used, taking into account site seismicity and soil-structure interactions. Additionally, this research looks at the environmental effects of RC structures, which are a representation of india's future building inventory. Through a life cycle analysis, it looks at the different material consumption needed to develop structures that adhere to Eurocode requirements. The approach used in this study is consistent with the fundamental ideas of practical design that include environmental and economic sustainability. The main conclusions of the research show that although increasing member size may improve performance at lower intensities, shear barriers may be required in high seismic zones at higher intensities, making this a potentially insufficient method. A balance between material consumption, performance, and environmental effect is required for sustainable design.
