In recent years, the seismic design of structures has experienced significant changes because of the increased demand for optimization of the structural capacities of buildings in order to minimize the level of damage, economic loss, and structure repair costs after an earthquake. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the performance of Special Moment Resisting Frame (SMRF) building installed with Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB) designed according to the current Indian Standards, minimum design loads for buildings and other structures. The project also investigates the differing results from the time history analyses completed using ETABS, commonly used structural analysis software. For the Nonlinear Dynamic Procedure (NDP), a time-history analysis is performed in which a model that incorporates the nonlinear load-deformation capacities of individual members in the structure is subjected to earthquake ground motions to obtain forces and displacements. And then, the optimization of the sections will be taken into consideration from the results of analyses of the SMRF building and the SMRF building installed with Buckling Restrained Braces.
