Introduction:
For residential construction projects to be safe and long-lasting, concrete materials' durability and
structural integrity are critical. Reinforcement bars, or rebar, are added to reinforced concrete, which is
frequently used in residential buildings, to increase its tensile strength and resistance to cracking under
varied loads.
In residential projects, concrete components including slabs, columns, and beams have typically
been reinforced using a single layer of rebar. But new developments in engineering and construction
technology have made it necessary to investigate the advantages of using two layers of rebar. To improve
structural performance, more evenly distribute loads, and reduce the chance of structural failure, this
method adds an extra layer of reinforcement to concrete parts.
Objectives:
The primary objectives of this study are outlined as follows:
Performance Comparison: Examine and contrast the residential concrete elements reinforced
with double-layer rebar with those strengthened with single-layer rebar in terms of structural
performance. By using numerical analysis and experimental testing, assess elements
including load-carrying capability, deflection behavior, crack resistance, and overall
structural stability.
Strengthening: Evaluate how much the double layer of rebar adds to the strength and load-
bearing ability of concrete components such as beams, columns, and slabs. To obtain
optimum strength and structural efficiency, determine the best double-layer reinforcing
arrangement and spacing.
By addressing these objectives, this study aims to contribute valuable insights into the use of single-
layer and double-layer rebar reinforcement in residential construction, providing a basis for informed
decision-making by industry professionals and stakeholders. The findings are expected to inform design
practices, construction methodologies, and regulatory policies to enhance the safety, reliability, and
sustainability of residential structures.
4. “A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF A BASE ISOLATED AND FIXED BASE
FOUR-STOREY BUILDING.”
Introduction:
Since time immemorial, earthquakes are one of the main concerns that we face when it comes to
structures that civil engineers build. No one knows when and where it can happen, all we know is that it
has the potential to cause a devastating impact to both lives and properties. Natural calamities are bound
to inflict damage to building and infrastructures.
A base isolation system is a seismic protection technique in which the foundation or substructure
serves as the base and the structure, or superstructure, is isolated from it. The amount of energy that is
transferred to the superstructure during an earthquake is greatly decreased by separating the building from
its base.
And also developed to prevent or minimize damage to buildings during an earthquake.
The researchers are conducting this study to investigate and compare the parameters of a base
isolated and fixed base 4-storey building. This investigation is highly needed to promote the usage of base
isolation in this kind of essential building all over the country.
This study extends beyond seismic protection, offering a versatile and effective solution to
enhance the safety, long term cost savings, seismic resilience, longevity of various structures in
earthquake-prone regions, and contributes technological advancement of innovative seismic design
solutions in the field of civil engineering.
Objectives:
This study intends to compare a fixed base and base isolated 4-storey structure with the help of
engineering soft wares such as STAAD and ETABS.
By analyzing these two types of building, with the same input of parameters, the researchers will
compare the gathered results for base shear, story shift and displacement, and time period.
Methodology:
The isolator types that are mostly used in practical applications are: (i) elastomeric rubber
bearings, (ii) elastomeric lead-rubber bearings, (iii) friction-based isolators and (iv) friction pendulum
systems, FPS. But we will be used is the elastic rubber bearings because it is easier to make.
