    This document summarizes a study that performed pushover analysis on RC frame structures with 5, 10, and 15 stories using ETABS 9.7.1 software. Pushover analysis determines the force-displacement relationship, or capacity curve, of a structure by applying monotonically increasing lateral loads until peak response. Three bare RC frame structures were analyzed and their base forces and displacements were compared. The analysis helped determine the collapse loads and ductility capacities of the structures. Key aspects of pushover analysis include defining hinge properties, which represent the force-deformation behavior at different damage states from initial yielding to failure.

    Abstract: Pushover analysis is a non linear static analysis used to determine the force-displacement
    relationship, or capacity curve, for a structural element. To evaluate the performance of RC frame structure, a
    non linear static pushover analysis has been conducted by using ETABS 9.7.1. To achieve this objective, three
    RC bare frame structures with 5, 10, 15 stories respectively were analyzed. And also compared the base force
    and displacement of RC bare frame structure with 5, 10, 15 stories.
    Keywords: ETABS 9.7.1, Hinge properties, Non linear static analysis, Pushover analysis, RC bare frame.

    Introduction

    Pushover analysis is non linear static analysis in which provide capacity curve of the structure, it is a
    plot of total base force vs. roof displacement. The analysis is carried out up to failure, it helps determination of
    collapse load and ductility capacity of the structure.The pushover analysis is a method to observe the successive
    damage state of the building. In Pushover analysis structure is subjected to monotonically increasing lateral load
    until the peak response of the structure is obtained as shown in figure

    Fig A. Static approximation used in the pushover analysis.

    1. FORCE DEFORMATION BEHAVIOR OF HINGES

    Point A corresponds to unloaded condition.


    Point B represents yielding of the element.
    The ordinate at C corresponds to nominal strength and abscissa at C corresponds to the deformation
    at which significant strengthdegradation begins.
    The drop from C to D represents the initialfailure of the element and resistance tolateral loads beyond
    point C is usuallyunreliable.
    The residual resistance from D to E allows the frame elements to sustain gravity loads.

    Fig B. Graph shows the curve Force Vs Deformation
