Abstract- Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) blocks are used widely in infill panels and load-bearing walls due to their superior properties of thermal insulation and fire resistant. To use the such technology in areas which are subjected to more seismic, however, still requires further investigation of seismic performance and overall structural performance. Shear wall is one of the most commonly used lateral load resisting technique in tall buildings. In this paper we will investigate the seismic performance of AAC blocks and brick wall when used in framed structure with different positions of shear wall is used and thus we will find which will be better locations of shear wall when used in the G+11 multistoried building in ETABS 18. The structure is located in seismic zone IV (Shimla). The floor to floor height is taken as 3.3m and plinth height is taken as 0.6 above ground level. Seismic parameters such as damping ratio, response reduction factor and importance factor is taken as 0.05, 5 and 1.5 respectively. The load combinations are based on IS 1893:2016 and design loads have been taken from IS 875 (part 1,2 and 3). In this study four model load with AAC block and four model of Brick wall with different location of shear wall is used with the same structural configuration. Tabular and graphical representation is shown based on the analysis and results. A comparative analysis is performed based on lateral displacement, story drift, story shear, overturning moment and quantity of concrete and reinforcement required.

Keywords- Etabs, Story Shear, Lateral Displacement, Overturning Moment, Story Drift, Shear wall, Seismic loading, Wind load, etc.
