Abstract Steel industry is growing in almost all parts of the world. The use of steel structure in construction industry is less in India as compared to USA, EU and other developed countries. As well cities in India are amongs high densely inhabitants per square km. which restricts horizontal expansion therefore vertical growth of building becomes predominant. Concrete structures are massive and bestow more seismic weight while steel structure take more ductility and deflection. Composite construction consolidates the better properties of steel and concrete.

In this study the static analysis under the provision of IS1893:2002 is carried out for three dimensional models RCC frame structure and RC-steel composite frame structure with the help of ETAB software. Comparative study of RCC frame structure and RC-steel composite frame structure for G+9 is included.

Subject headings: Composite structures, steel structure framed structure, seismic design, ETABS v18

  1. INTRODUCTION

    In the past , for the construction, the choice was normally between a concrete structure and a masonary structure. Failure of many masonary buildings and multistoried RCC buildings due to earthquake have necessitate structural engineers to look for the different method of construction. Due to significant potential in improving the overall performance through rather modest changes in construction technology, use of composite frame structure is of particular intrest. There is great potential for increasing the volume of steel in construction. Especially the current development need in India. Use of steel, reinforced concrete, and composite steel concrete members which are functioning together such composite systems make use of each type of member in most efficient manner to maximize the structural and economical benefit.

  2. ELEMENTS OF COMPOSITE STRUCTURE

      1. Shear connector

        Mechanical shear connectors are required at the steel- concrete interface. These connectors are designed to (a) transmit longitudinal shear along the interface and (b) prevent separation of steel beam and concrete slab at the interface. There are three types of shear connectors as,

        1. Rigid type

        2. Bond or anchorage type

        3. Flexible type

      2. composite deck slab

        Composite deck slab consist of composite column(encased hot rolled I section), steel beam, steel jacketing.

      3. composite beam

        The steel beams are connected to the concrete slab in such a way that the two act as one unit, the beam is called as composite beam. Composite beams are similar to concrete T- beams where the flange of the T-beam is made of concrete slab and the web of the T-beam is made of the steel section.

      4. Composite column

    It is a compression member consisting either concrete encased hot rolled steel section embedded in concrete. At present there is no Indian standard code covering the design of composite column. The design method largely follows Euro code 4, which provides latest research on composite construction. IS 11384-1985 does not make any specific provisions to composite columns.

  3. METHODOLOGY

    RCC and steel-concrete frame models are analyzed. Seismic analysis of both RCC frame structure and composite frame structure are carried out using software tool ETAB v18. Different parameters such as shear force, storey stiffness, storey displacement, storey drift are discussed

    3.1 Structural details

    A typical plan of building is selected for comparative study of RCC and RC-steel composite having plan dimensions 25m x 16m as shown in figure.,

    3-D model is being prepared for the frame analysis of building in ETABS. Following basic parameters are used for analysis and design of structures.

        Graph.6 Base shear in Y-dir. Due to earthquake

        RESULTS

        Graph no. 1 and 2 shows that, the structure having steel beam with composite column shows more rigidity compared to RCC beam and column framed structure. The storey displacement of Model no. 4 is 5 % less compared to model no. 1. Max. storey displacement differs in x-direction and y-direction due to rectangular geometry and orientation of column.

        The permissible limit for displacement is H/500 where H is height of building. Total building height is 30.5m that means permissible limit for displacement is 61mm. Permissible limit for storey drift according to IS 1893(part1):2016 is 0.004 times the storey height which is 0.1220, all models are safe in drift criteria. Max. storey drift for all frame structure is within permissible limit.Storey stiffness differs in X-direction and Y-direction owing orientation column

        From chart 5 and 6 it is seen that, Storey shear for steel beam with composite column frame structure has reduced by 15% compare to that of reinforced concrete structure. Base shear for steel beam with RCC column frame is 16% less compared to RC framed structure.

        CONCLUSIONS

        • By keeping same specification and loading, we designed smaller section composite structure For the same bending moment, axial forces .

        • Because of inherent ductility characteristic steel-concrete composite structure under earthquake consideration steel-concrete composite structure performs better

        • As compared to RCC frame structure steel beam with RC column frame structure and steel beam with composite column frame structure require less construction time due to quick errction of the steel beam and ease of formwork of concrete

        • Including the construction period as a function of total cost in the cost estimation will result in increased economy for the composite structure

        • Steel beam with composite column frame structure has less base shear which gives economic foundation design, construction period for steel beam with composite column frame structure is less. Also requirement of construction worker is reduced. Also due to inherent ductility of steel-RC composite structure it performs better in earthquake prone regon

        • According to analysis and my study on that I conclude that steel-beam with composite column frame structure is superior over RCC frame structure, steel beam with RC column frame structure, and Composite column frame structure amongs all
