Abstract

Concrete shells have been widely used for roofing large column-free areas and have been constructed in various countries for almost half a century. The object of the present work is to compare the behavior of RC shell structure having different geometrical parameters under seismic forces. For this purpose a multi frame RC shell structure having single storey is considered. Geometric parameters considered for comparison are central rise and span. The analysis is carried out with the help of software Staad.Pro. The total 12 models are to be compared in seismic zone III, zone IV and zone V. To study the seismic behavior of RC shell structure the result parameters selected are maximum deflection, maximum moments and shear stresses. From the analysis results it is observed that in all the models deflection, moments and shear stress values are less for lower zones and it goes on increases for higher zones because the magnitude of intensity will be the more for higher zones
