| dc.description.abstract | In practice and theory, many types of reinforced concrete slabs are used, such as beamed, beamless, and ribbed slabs.
Beamed floors are connected to the columns by means of beams, and their vertical and horizontal loads are transferred to the
columns through these beams. Therefore, beams are accepted as an important structural element by earthquake experts and many
formulas and approaches have been developed in terms of horizontal and vertical load effects that occur in order to transfer the
load transfer to the elements as desired. In this study, beam shear forces that occur under the influence of vertical earthquakes at
the i and j ends of the beams of a fictional building whose floors are modeled according to the rigid diaphragm assumption in
the ETABS were investigated. In this study, the shear forces that occur in the beams of a fictionally designed building under the
effect of vertical earthquakes, and the floors carried by the beams are examined by designing with the assumption of a rigid
diaphragm. The structure is designed with 3 openings in the X and Y directions and each opening is equal and 5 m. The 5-storey
building has been designed to have equal floor heights of 3 m. The structure was obtained by using parameters belonging to 5
different soil classes as ZA, ZB, ZC, ZD, ZE, and 5 different vertical elastic design spectrums represented by the abbreviations
EZ_ZA, EZ_ZB, EZ_ZC, EZ_ZD were activated in the ETABS. Seismic station coordinates numbered 4631 in K.Maras/Elbistan
were used to obtain the parameters to be used in obtaining the vertical elastic design spectral of the structure. These coordinates
were selected in order to compare the i and j end shear forces of the beam with the previously obtained beam i and j ends shear
forces by influencing the Mw:7.6 Elbistan earthquake recorded by the seismic station to the building. Since the structure is
symmetrical in both X and Y directions, the results obtained from beams B2, B3, B5, B19 represent the beam shear forces
occurring at the i and j ends of all beams of the structure. As a result, it has been seen that the highest values of beam i and j end
shear forces, obtained by affecting both the vertical elastic design spectral and the data of the vertical component of the Elbistan
Mw:7.6 earthquake, were obtained on the 5th floor, which is the top floor of the building. The structure showed similar behavior
among the different vertical elastic design spectral, and the highest value was obtained for each vertical elastic design spectrum
at the 5th floor. Among these vertical elastic design spectral, the EZ_ZC spectrum gave the highest value at the 5th floor of the
building. When the EZ_ZC vertical elastic design spectrum beam i and j end shear forces are compared with the beam i and j
end shear forces of the vertical component data of the Elbistan Mw:7.6 earthquake, it is seen that the difference is not significant.
It has been seen that the beam i and j end shear force value of the spectrum is higher than the shear force value. | en_US |
