Non-linear Analysis of Base-Isolated Building Having Optimized Number of Base Isolators
In the present study, a base isolation system has been designed for an eight-story framed building. Non-linear time history analysis has been performed to compare the non-linear response of the base-isolated building and conventionally designed building. The computer program SAP 2000 has been used for modelling and analysis. The comparative response of the fixed base building and the base-isolated building has been studied in terms of base shear, roof displacement, and roof acceleration. In addition to this, a cost-effective approach for designing a base-isolated building has been proposed. In this approach, the total number of base isolators to be used in the building have been gradually decreased to optimize the cost. The base isolators have been redesigned for each case, and linear and non-linear performances have been checked to ensure that the performance of the building has not been compromised.
