IS 4326 : 1976 "Code of practice for earthquake resistant design and construction of buildings’ while covering certain special features for the design and construction of earthquake resistant buildings included some details for achieving ductility in reinforced concrete buildings, ‘With view to keep abreast of the rapid developments and extensive research that has been carried out in the field of earthquake resistaxt design of reinforced concrete structures, the technical committee decided to cover provisions for the earthquake resistant design and detailing of reinforced conerete structures Separately. This code incorporates a number of important provisions hitherto not covered in IS 4326 : 1976. ‘The major thrust in the formulation of this standard is one of the following lines! 4) Asa renult of the experince gained from the performance, in recent, earthquakes, of reinforced conerete structures that were designed and detailed a8 per IS 4326 : 1976, many deficiencies thus identified have been corrected in this code. ) Provisions on detailing of beams and columas have been revised with an aim of providing them with adequate toughness and, ductility so as to make them capable of undergoing extensive inelastic deformations and dissipating seismic energy in a stable manner, ©) Specifications on a seismic design and detailing of reinforced concrete shear walls have been included. ‘The other significant changes incorporated in this code are as follow: 2) Material specifications are indicated for lateral force resisting elements of frames. b) Geometric constraints are imposed on the cross section for flexural members. Provisions on minimum and maximum reinforcement have been revised. The requirements for detailing of longitudinal reinforcement in beams at joint faces, splices, and anchorage requirements are made more explicit. Provision are alsg iacluded for caleulation of design shear force and for detailing of transverse reinforcement in beams. ©) For members subjected to axial load and flexure, the dimensional constraints have been imposed on the cross section. Provisions are included for detailing of lap splices and for the calculation of design shear force. A comprehensive set of requirements is included on the provision of special confining reinforcement in those regions of @ column that are: expected to undergo cyclic inelastic deformations during a severe earthquake. @) Provisions have been included for estimating the shear strength and flexural strength of shear wall sections. Provisions are also given for detailing of reinforcement in the wall ecb, boundary elements, coupling beams, around openings, at construction joints, and for the development, splicing and anchorage of reinforcement. Whilst the common methods of design and construction have been covered in this code, spe systems of design and construction of any plaia or reinforced concrete structure not covered by this code may be permitted on production of satisfactory evidence regarding theit adequacy for seismic performance by analysis or tests or both. ‘The Sectional Committee responsible for the preparation of this standard has taken into consi- deration the view of manufacturers, users, engineers, architects, builders and technologists aed has related the standard to the practices followed in the country in this field. Due weightage has also ‘been given to. the need for international co-ordination among standards. prevailing different seismic regions of the world. In the formulation of this standard, assistance has been derived from the following publication i) ACT 318-89/318R-89, Building code requirements for reinforced concrete and commentary, published by American Concrete Institute. ii) ATC-I1.
