Review on “Effect of various concentric bracing in building”

The most principal and productive factor in providing strength to a structure against gradual collapse is the kind of lateral load carriage system of the structure. In recent years earthquakes have made a great impact on structures specially high-rise buildings. In this review response of structures in different seismic zones done by various researchers is shown. They have compared the structures based on factors like storey displacement, base shear, storey stiffness, time factor and lateral load bearing methods effective for the structures. Different analysis have been done on practical models, stimulation analysis and software based structural analysis. Based on their studies various bracing methods for a structure to bear lateral load in multi-storey buildings have been proposed. This review is also concerned about the methodology to be used in order to get the better result of structures in terms of seismic analysis. In most of the cases X-bracing had a significant role in providing lateral strength to the structure
