Review on Time History Analysis of Irregular Shape Building

Abstract

Masonry infill is often considered as non-structural element while analysing structure. To know actual behavior of structure, the effect of masonry infill is need to be incorporated in seismic evaluation. In this work, several research papers were reviewed and the results from different analysis method are compared to study the effect of masonry infill for different storied structure. From review it is seen that, inclusion of masonry infill changes fundamental time period of vibration, story displacement and base shear characteristics.
