ABSTRACT:
In India reinforced concrete structures are mostly used since this is the most convenient and economic
system for low-rise buildings. However, for medium to high-rise buildings this type of structure is no longer
efficient. Use of composite material is of particular interest, due to its significant potential in improving the overall
performance by making modest changes in manufacturing and constructional technologies. Steel-concrete composite
columns are extensively used in modern buildings. Extensive researches on composite columns in which structural
steel section are encased in concrete have been carried out. In-filled composite columns, however have received
limited attention compared to encased columns. The recent development in the computer applications has helped the
structural engineering field significantly. The Non-Linear Time History Analysis (NL-THA) of seismic evaluation
of a structure is precise, exact and highly accurate when compared to the other non-linear static and dynamic
procedures.
Research has also been undergone to develop techniques that control the seismic response of the structures.
Such techniques include use of energy dissipation devices like dampers and base isolation techniques. The present
study is on the Non-linear time history analysis comparing the effects of energy dissipation device, tuned mass
damper at mid storey for high-rise symmetric building. The frame considered was loaded with gravity loads (dead
load & live load) and Bhuj earth quake loading and is modelled and then Non-Linear Time History Analysis
(NLTHA) was performed. The analysis engine used for the analysis and design is SAP 2000 version 19. In the
study, displacement and base shear of the structure was studied without tuned mass damper and the results obtained
were compared with those obtained from the structure with seismic control device. So, it is also necessary to
enhance the seismic performance of composite buildings by using seismic control techniques. So, in the present
study an attempt will be made to control the seismic response of the structure using Tuned mass damper. Since non-
linear modal time history analysis (non–linearity only when link elements are used) was fast and sufficiently
accurate analysis when compared to non-linear direct integration, the former method was adopted for structures with
tuned mass dampers.
The results illustrated the significant reduction of 18% inthe base shear and decrement in displacement by
35%in Composite structure compared to RCC and reduction in base shear as well as displacement was observed
when Tuned mass damper was used. It was also seen that there was a reduction in weight of the structure by 45%
when composite structure was replaced with RCC.
Key Words: Tuned Mass Damper, Dynamic analysis and Non-linear time history analysis
1. INTRODUCTION
An earthquake is an involuntary movement of
the Crust of the earth, the origin of which usually is on
the surface or below it. Here, the term 'natural' is
adopted as it removes shock waves generated by
nuclear tests, human-made blasts, etc. The Crust is
made of plates. The junction between the two plates is
known as a fault. In the Indian context, the primary
border fault is this fault, stretching from the west
through Uttaranchal, Bihar, Assam to Burma through
the terrain region and Himachal Pradesh. Through the
Andaman-Nicobar Islands and the Bay of Bengal, this
plate descends and enters Indonesia. When plates
move, the rocks feel stress. Through this process, a
crack happens, and this is finally called an earthquake.
Earthquakes are a natural hazard that is sometimes
unforeseeable, like many other natural hazards,
rendering it impossible to preserve property and life
through engineering. The seismic reliability of the
building environment must be developed by designing
numerous analytical methods to solve these problems
triggered by an earthquake, which will ensure that
buildings survive occasional small earthquakes and
provide sufficient caution if significant earthquake
events are experienced. This will significantly add to
savings of life and land. Specific seismic architecture
codes are usable and are being updated over time in
nearly all countries. Depending on the importance and
cost, the framework of the framework ranges from
linear to nonlinear to measure the earthquake powers
and their demand. A building's behavior depends on
several factors during an earthquake, such as stiffness,
sufficient lateral strength, and ductility, comfortable
and natural configurations. The quake did not kill

humans, but the structures did. Therefore, it is the
primary responsibility of a structural (design) engineer
to build on the criteria of previous practice and
consider all possible dangers to which the framework
may be exposed in the future to create the structure
successfully. Through the finite portion of computer
technology/software, structural engineers have built
techniques to boost the efficiency of systems subjected
to earthquakes that model, interpret and display the
results efficiently in a careful manner. Study in civil
engineering has reached much broader horizons than
one might have anticipated. Due to the rise in
computer systems and technologies, structural
engineers can save a lot of time and effort. Each
seismic code emphasizes such a design that can help a
framework survive a certain amount of ground
acceleration and motion based on the seismic threat.
When an earthquake exerts intense pressure on the
structure, itis usually built to have some yield.
Earthquake Engineering's motto is to reduce the loss of
life and property arising from the generating systems'
collapse. Several applications are available on the
market that can aid with structural simulation,
research, and design. The production of a network
intended for a specific load and a degree of safety is
critical for practicing structural/design engineers.
It may simply be concluded that the seismic
architecture is a two-step operation. First, it is essential
to configure all critical seismic efficiency objectives,
such as serviceability considerations for life protection
and collapse prevention, and an appropriate structural
framework. This stage consists of the engineer's
creative capacity to construct a structure that satisfies
seismic efficiency objectives and considers the
functional and economic limitations set by the owner,
the architect, and other practitioners involved in
constructing and designing a home. This development
method is genuinely based on the engineer's
experience, judgment, and interpretation of seismic
activity instead of particular statistical formulations.
To configure an effective structural system based on
rudimentary awareness of ground motion and elastic
and inelastic dynamic reaction characteristics, thumb
rules for rigidity and strength goals should be
sufficient. For the study of the structures and
determining their performance under the loading
offered, a range of techniques is readily accessible.
The most precise of them is the nonlinear time history
review. Using conventional methods known as
nonlinear static methods (N.S.P.s) and linear dynamic
methods, often referred to as response spectrum
methods, which have been established, frameworks
deemed less critical are studied. Such techniques do
not produce conclusions as valid as those derived
through the analysis of time history.
Today, urbanization consists of two materials that are
undeniably used as a construction material for
buildings ranging from skyscrapers to pavements,
steel, and concrete, while both products have distinct
characteristics from each other. Steel significantly
resists tensile loading, but it has a lower weight ratio.
Slender pieces that might be vulnerable to buckling
phenomena are therefore adopted. Concrete, on the
other side, is excellent at resisting compression. Steel
is adopted for high-rise construction to affect ductility;
on the other side, concrete can resist corrosion and
serve thermal insulation.
Similarly, concrete will even regulate the buckling of
steel. It is necessary to consider composite design to
derive the least benefits from both materials. In
composite buildings' structure, two columns, namely
encased columns and concrete-filled steel tube
columns, are introduced.
1.2 Reinforced Concrete
Both steel and concrete are used in tandem in
reinforced cement concrete building to serve as a
hybrid medium in which steel absorbs both stress and
strain, while concrete can only endure compression.
R.C.C. is a structural material commonly used and is
used in several forms of structures.
The objective of the study has also been discussed.
Chapter 2 explains the literature review, Chapter 3
explains the methodology, Chapter 4 explains the
description. Chapter 5discusses the results obtained by
the analysis of framed buildings using the SAP
package. Finally, chapter 6 gives the summary,
conclusions, and scope for future work.
2 RELATED WORK Panchal and Marathe (2011), in their analysis,
steel and concrete were contrasted with composite
steel and concrete for a commercial building in an
earthquake environment. An analogous static
methodology is being used. For modeling of
Composite, Steel, and R.C.C structures, ETABS
program is used, and the findings are contrasted, and it
is found that axial force in the column is decreased by
7 percent in composite structure and 46 percent in steel
structure compared to R.C.C. structure, and it is also
found that overall savings are around 10 percent for
composite and 6-7 percent for steel structure compared
to R.C.C.

buildings' seismic activity by calculating structural
dampers' volume. The seismic behavior– 10, 12, 14,
16, 18, and 21 stories – with and without a tuned mass

buildings in the top eleven, twelve, fourteen, sixteen,
eighteen, and twenty floors. It has been noticed that
ambient vibration can be regulated using the structure
of the TMD. For the standard building frame, 5% of
TMD lowers the top story displacement by roughly
5%. The reduction in the 10 and 12 story buildings is
38 and 36, the reduction in the 14 and 16 story
buildings is 35 and 33, the reduction in the 18 and 21
story buildings is 31 and 30. And ratios of binding

Renavikar Aniket and Suryawanshi Yogesh's
(2015) proposal would evaluate a steel-concrete
structure and R.C.C. residential house. The planned
layout is four buildings, each covering three floors of
G+9, G+12, G+15, and G+18, at 3.0m in height. The
overall construction plan dimension of the building is
15 feet by 9 feet. The material is collected, processed,
and is then modeled using STAAD-Pro software. A
load mixture has been analyzed according to the Indian
Norm Code of Procedure. The dissertation includes the
study of an analogous R.C.C. structure such that
contrast of expense may be produced between an
R.C.C. structure and a steel-concrete composite
structure. The paper stated that, relative to the steel
composite structures and composite structures, the
axial force, B.M., and deflections in R.C.C. are much
more considerable.
Sandipetal.(2016),Seismic waves have been
studied on the earth and are transformed into dynamic
loads causing the ground and the attachments to
vibrate and affect structures and other structural
components in a complicated way. Civil engineering
continually improves ways to counter this underlying
tendency. Conventional device enhancement
techniques use more materials and electricity. Also,
increased masses contribute to increased seismic
powers. Alternative solutions, including passive
control systems, successfully reduce seismic and
alternative dynamic impacts on civil engineering. A
tuned mass damper (TMD) is a mass system with a
spring connected to the structure to minimize its
dynamic reaction. It has been shown that Tuned Mass
Damper (TMD), for harmonic and wind excitation
structural response control, is most efficient. Base
isolation is also commonly recognized as an essential
technique to defend seismic excitement-prone systems.
The efficiency and calibrated mass damper of the
linear base isolation device to minimize seismic
reaction is studied. TMD and B.I. are used effectively
to manage structural vibration and are compelling
instruments in defending structures from different
lateral forces as wind loads and seismic impacts. At
the same time, TMD decreases the movement
reactions of structures with low damping ratios more
effectively.
Sattainathan Sharma et al. (2016) this paper
aims to compare a reinforced concrete frame and a
composite material frame located in an earthquake
zone of IV (20 floors + basement). Using E-TABS
tools, the templates of both systems were compared.
The research investigated the deflection, shear power,
moment, tale drift, stiffness, and displacement of the
system. To measure the seismic load, the seismic
architecture criterion of the Indian norm of code for
quake tolerant design of frameworks IS 1893 (PART-
1): 2002 and IS-875 (PART-3) have been used. It is
observed that the dead weight of composite
construction ranges from 20% to 25%, less than
R.C.C. structure, which tends to mitigate seismic
forces from 15% to 20% greatly. The tests show that
the bending moment of structures utilizing composite
materials was decreased from 12% to 24%, and the
stability of the composite structures was more
excellent as contrasted with R.C.C. structures.
3. METHODOLOGY
3.1 Degrees of Freedom The cumulative amount of shifts in the
displacement of all masses is named the number of
degrees of freedom. A small number of free-body
coordinates defines Multi-degree free-body structures.
A complex system's correct answer can be calculated
only by measuring the inertia effects at each system
particle since the system's configuration is constant for
infinite degrees-of-freedom. Methods to explain such
systems' configuration are restricted to operating
structures with uniform material properties and regular
geometry. The techniques involve a large amount of
computational calculation. However, the measurement
is significantly simplified by replacing the structure's
total displacement with a small number of
displacements and assuming the structure's entire mass
is contained in some distinct points, as seen in fig. 3.1.

By expressing the balance of the productive forces
aligned with each of its degrees of freedom, the
system's equation of motion can be formulated. In
general, at every level I four kinds of forces would be
involved: the externally imposed load pi(t) and the
forces arising from the motion, i.e., inertia fIi,
damping fDi, elastic fSi. The dynamic balance can

3.5.1 Linear Static Analysis
In a linear static analysis technique, the building is
called a structure with just one degree of
independence, defined by linear elasticity and viscous
damping. The seismic is modeled by the influence of
an equal lateral force on the earthquake's stress a
strain to generate the same earthquake. Using
observational associations or Rayleigh's rule, the
spectral acceleration is estimated from the response
distribution. After multiplying the effect by the mass
of the house, the result provides the lateral po

due to plasticity anddecreased force due to the
expected inelastic actions. The height of the building
measures the lateral force, and the sum of exterior
force added.
Typical linear static structures are only used for
construction purposes and are implemented in most
building codes. Their budget is limited. Even, they
only refer to traditional buildings with the dominant
first mode of vibration.
3.5.2 Nonlinear Static Analysis
A nonlinear, static analysis is used for the construction
model. The inelastic material reaction of the specific
components and elements was accounted for directly.
Several method escapes (e.g., A.T.C. 40 and FEMA
273).They both have in common that the building
model's nonlinear force-deformation feature is defined
by subjecting the building model to monotonically
rising lateral forces or increasing displacement, spread
over the building's height in correspondence to the first
mode of vibration, before the building coll

reaction and the measured internal force and
deformation would be more precise approxima

the first mode of vibration is considered, and thus the
above modes can't be used on unusual surfaces, and
more are not appropriate.
3.5.4 Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis
In a nonlinear dynamic analysis process, the structure
is modeled like the one used in nonlinear static
analysis. The construction model is identical to the one
used in the nonlinear static analysis by utilizing
general finite elements. The seismic feedback is
modeled using a time history analysis focused on
measuring building reaction over time. The most
reliable method for estimating values of force and
displacement is included in this report.

as a testing instrument to model a building system's
actions in-depth and measure fractures' progression,
the distribution of vertical and shear pressures, the
forms of hysteresis curves, etc.
3.5.4.1 Nonlinear System The deformation of a substance after a nonlinear force
has been applied. This point is named yieldpoint
it is the point at which the substance is starting to
yield. The device is linearly elastic on initial loading as
long as the applied force is less than the yield power
(i.e., the stiffness is zero). Generally, force is referred
to as yield power. The system turns into a plastic
region that is made up of elastic content. As the
deformation rises, the tension stays unchanged. The
overload and unload method proceeds until the
substance enters a state of equilibrium. It means that
force Fs do not have a single value and rely on the
deformations and whether the deformation is
increasing or declining (negative velocity).

4.3.2 Nonlinear Time History Analysis
NLTHA is an applied physics tool used to explain the
actions of structures that undergo seismic motions. As
the name suggests, it is the method of figuring out the
background of responses over the life cycle of the
dynamic loading like an earthquake ground
acceleration record before the structure hits a limit
state.
The dynamic loading consists of applying the
earthquake ground acceleration record of vertical loads
to a structure and incrementally raising those loads that
differ in time to evaluate the structure's r
For this analysis, earthquake ground acceleration
records that include the different N
components have been used. BHUJ is an institute
situated in Gujarat in the high-intensity earthquake
region of zone factor 0.36 and falls under the

The data's acceleration points are described in terms of
time (i.e., within 0.005 seconds). The acceleration
record has units of m/2, has a total number of 27,000
acceleration data coordinates, and the most critical
data are the first 13,000, which are of the maximum
strength.

6. CONCLUSIONS
Based on Non-Linear Time History Analysis carried
out, the following lists of conclusions are drawn:
The composite building frame base shear was
reduced by 18% compared to the R.C.C building
frame without TMD and 28% with TMD.
The structure's combined building frame weight
was found to reduce by 45% compared to the R.C.C
building frame.
The composite building frame displacement was
found to increase by 35% compared to the R.C.C
building frame with and without TMD.
In the R.C.C building, frame displacement in X
direction due to NLTH_X at a joint was found to
reduce by4% by introducinga tuned mass damper at
the building's mid-story.
In the R.C.C building, frame displacement in the Y
direction due to NLTH_Y at a joint was found to
reduce by 4% by introducinga tuned mass damper at
the building's mid-story.
In the R.C.C building, frame base shear in X
direction due to NLTH_X was found to reduce by 7%
by introducinga tuned mass damper at the building's
mid-story.
In the R.C.C building, frame base shear in the Y
direction due to NLTH_Y was found to reduce by 7%
by introducinga tuned mass damper at the building's

direction due to NLTH_X was found to reduce by 18%
by introducing tuned mass damper at the building's
mid-story.

FUTURE WORK
As the various researchers are getting
attracted to the composite structures, the studies' scope
under the particular topic can be stretched to wide
horizons where the building plan can be more realistic
by considering different dimensions of beams/columns
with wall openings and slabs. Asymmetry of the
composite structure can be considered, finding out the
best suitable location for TMD placement.
