Abstract

This research study intends to investigate the influence of shear wall design and seismic intensities on the potential cost of Reinforced Concrete (RC) high-rise buildings in Saudi Arabia. The seismic intensities of the proposed locations vary from relatively low to relatively high. Conventional and ductile design methods are considered for designing the shear walls in different locations. The influence of these selected locations and employed design methods associated with the anticipated cost is numerically computed and quantified. The three-dimensional finite element models are created using the available structural software package ETABS. Cost analyses are performed and obtained for the conventionally designed buildings in the considered different locations. The corresponding cost analyses considering the ductile design of shear walls are also computed for all the considered models. Reinforcement steel material and labor costs are utilized to determine the total cost of the shear walls. Other cost elements such as concrete, formwork, machinery, finishing, etc. are not included. The relation between spectral accelerations and required reinforcement for each shear wall design is made. Sensitivity analysis, using @Risk software, with respect to the labor cost is performed to cover the expected risk during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

地震烈度和剪力墙设计对沙特阿拉伯高层建筑造价的同时影响

本研究旨在探讨剪力墙设计和地震烈度对沙特阿拉伯钢筋混凝土高层建筑潜在成本的影响。拟议地点的地震烈度从相对低到相对高不等。对不同位置的剪力墙进行了常规设计和延性设计。这些选定的地点和所采用的与预期成本相关的设计方法的影响是数值计算和量化的。利用现有的结构软件ETABS建立三维有限元模型。在考虑的不同地点，对传统设计的建筑物进行了成本分析。并对所考虑的剪力墙延性设计进行了相应的成本分析。钢筋材料和人工成本被用来确定剪力墙的总成本。其他成本要素，如混凝土，模板，机械，整理等不包括在内。给出了谱加速度与剪力墙设计所需配筋的关系。使用@Risk软件对人工成本进行敏感性分析，以涵盖COVID-19大流行期间的预期风险。Copyright©2022 Praise Worthy Prize s.r.l.版权所有©2022 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l。

期刊介绍： The International Review of Civil Engineering (IRECE) is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original theoretical papers, applied papers, review papers and case studies on all fields of civil engineering. The scope of the Journal encompasses, but is not restricted to the following areas: infrastructure engineering; transportation engineering; structural engineering (buildings innovative structures environmentally responsive structures bridges stadiums commercial and public buildings, transmission towers, television and telecommunication masts, cooling towers, plates and shells, suspension structures, smart structures, nuclear reactors, dams, pressure vessels, pipelines, tunnels and so on); earthquake, hazards, structural dynamics, risks and mitigation engineering; environmental engineering; structure-fluid-soil interaction; wind engineering; fire engineering; multi-scale analysis; constitutive modeling and experimental testing; construction materials; composite materials in engineering structures (use, theoretical analysis and fabrication techniques); novel computational modeling techniques; engineering economics. The Editorial policy is to maintain a reasonable balance between papers regarding different research areas so that the Journal will be useful to all interested scientific groups.
