Seismic Analysis of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Cable Structure Using ETABS
The Indian subcontinent does have a record of tragic seismic events. The Indian plate, which continues slamming into the Asian plate, is really the cause of the high frequency and intensity of earthquakes, with Northeast India being the most at hazardous location. Structures may not resist earthquakes completely, so the objective is to perform better during seismic action. Consequently, Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) cables are introduced that can make building safer from the devastating seismic forces. CFRP cables have a high strength-to-weight ratio, are lightweight, and have no corrosion or fatigue issues. In order to resist ground motion during an earthquake event, a new method has been introduced using CFRP cables. Hundreds of CFRP cables were inserted from the rooftop to the ground, on the outer side of the building. In the present work, a comparative study of a midrise G+11 RCC building using Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) Cable against X-bracing system. Various earthquake analyses were carried to compare the structures for higher magnitude ground motions. This study shows that CFRP cables have a better dynamic performance and can be used to achieve higher strength and efficiency of the structure.
