Study On Residential Building of Constant Area and Different Shape Using ETABS : A Review

Earthquake is a form of disaster which occurs due to Natural or Man-made errors resulting in extreme damages to human civilization and any form of structure created by us. Recent example of such a disastrous earthquake was seen in our neighbouring country Nepal, resulting in massive destruction to the entire country destroying its economy and placing a setback of more than 10 years. It was such an unusual disaster, that it is extremely vital for survival to ensure the strength of the structures against seismic forces. In this way, there is persistent research work going on around the world, rotating around the advancement of new and better methods that can be consolidated in structures for better seismic execution. Structures designed considering exceptional methods to resist such forces and seismic forces have a considerably higher cost of development than ordinary structures, yet for prosperity against tension on the structure under seismic forces, it is fundamental. In this study we are presenting literature review of publication available on citations in which lateral load resisting techniques are utilized.
