Impact of baseshear on various soils in high rise multi storied residential building.

In modern developing countries there is need of high rise multi storey buildings to satisfy the needs of the newly arriving organization as well as the population migrating to the developing areas for employability. The high rise structures are vulnerable to lateral forces such as earthquake forces, wind forces, forces due explosions like atomic bombs, gas cylinders etc. considering the previous accidents among the above mentioned forces major percentage of damage is caused by earthquake forces, to ensure the safety, and comfort of the residents, the structure should be able to withstand against these forces without severe damage, without collapsing or should give prior time to evacuate the building so that the damage caused by the hazard can be prevented or reduced, In order to design the buildings that can withstand these hazards there a need to study the behaviour of the structure due to the earthquake forces. To gain proper understanding over the earthquake loads the considered structure is analyzed with respect to the seismic zones as per the Indian Standard in different types of soils (hard, medium, soft soils) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
