Opening Effect of Core Type Shear Wall used in Multistoried Structures: A Technical approach in Structural Engineering

Abstract

The reduction of the overall budget of the project leads to the cost effective one and there should be such criteria of reduction of the cost in different manner. To make economic structure without losing the stiffness criteria, the work has been performed in two stages. The former one is building with single shear wall core and the latter one is building with dual core shear wall; the entire work has performed with four different phases. In first phase total 5 buildings that are modeled with different openings in single core types shear wall and then second phase performs the analysis procedures of the same. The third phases have total 6 buildings that are modeled with different openings in dual core types shear wall and then fourth phase performs the analysis procedures of the same. The result analysis has been performed and then conclusions are drawn. Building with 25% opening area in single core type shear wall and 50% opening area in dual core type shear wall performs well to reduce the cost of the project.
