Abstract. In past decades, shear walls are one of the most appropriate and important
structural component in multi-storied building. Therefore, it would be very
interesting to study the structural response and their systems in multi-storied
structure. Shear walls contribute the stiffness and strength during earthquakes which
are often neglected during design of structure and construction. This study shows the
effect of shear walls which significantly affect the vulnerability of structures. In
order to test this hypothesis, G+8 storey building was considered with and without
shear walls and analyzed for various parameters like base shear, storey drift ratio,
lateral displacement, bending moment and shear force. Significance of shear wall has
been studied with the help of two models. First model is without shear wall i.e. bare
frame and other another model is with shear wall considering opening also in it. For
modeling and analysis of both the models, FEM based software ETABS 2016 were
used. The analysis of all models was done using Equivalent static method. The
comparison of results has been done based on same parameters like base shear,
storey drift ratio, lateral displacement, bending moment and shear force.
1. Introduction
Adequate stiffness is very important in high rise buildings to resist the lateral loads
brought by wind or seismic events. RC shear walls are designed for buildings located in seismic
areas, because of their high strength, stiffness and high ductility. A great portion of the lateral
load on a building as well as the shear force resulting from load, are often assigned to structural
elements made of RCC. Shear walls have very large in-plane stiffness and hence it can resist
lateral load and control deflection very efficiently. Using of shear walls or their equivalent
becomes important in certain high-rise buildings, if inter-storey deflections caused by lateral
loadings are to be controlled. Properly-designed shear walls not only provide safety but also give
a proper measure of protection against costly structural as well as non-structural damage during
seismic activity. Shear walls provide large stiffness and strength to buildings, which effectively
reduces lateral deformation of the structure and hence reduces damage to structure. The shear
wall is one of the essential structural components placed in multi-storey buildings which are
situated in earthquake zones as they have large resistance to lateral earthquake forces. RC shear

walls should have sufficient ductility to avoid brittle failure under the action of strong lateral
earthquake forces. In this paper, first modal is a bare frame residential building without shear
wall and other model has shear wall considering openings. With the help of ETABS software, its
effectiveness is checked. The linear static analysis method is used in which model is subject to
the linear force which state that model is in elastic property. Comparison is made between both
the models on parameters like lateral displacement, storey drift, base shear, bending moment,
shear force of the structure.

6. Conclusions
x In multi-storey buildings, provision of shear walls is found to be effective in increasing the
overall seismic response and characteristics of the structure.
x Shear walls are considered for analysis of RC frame in which equivalent static method can
be effectively used.
x Shear wall ultimately increases the stiffness and strength of the structure and affect the
seismic behavior of the structure.
x From the analytical result, it is observed that base shear increases in the model with shear
wall when compared to the model without shear wall. This is due to increase in stiffness of
building.
x The considerable reduction in lateral displacement is observed in the shear wall model when
compared the model without shear wall. The reduction of displacement of storey is due to
increase in stiffness of structure.
x For better seismic performance, a building should have proper lateral stiffness. Low lateral
stiffness leads to large deformation and strains, damage to non structural elements.
Therefore, it is necessary to consider the shear walls in the seismic analysis of the structure
which significantly increases the strength of overall frame and decreases the probability of
collapse of the structure.
