Abstract The paper presents the study of building foundations of reinforced concrete multistoreyed buildings for G+5, G+10, G+15 designed for seismic forces in the various seismic zones of Indian subcontinent with varying SBC 100KN/m2, 150KN/m2, 200KN/m2.. The foundation types considered are; isolated footings, raft foundations under different allowable bearing pressure values of the supporting soils. The study provides the requirement of structural quantities of the building in different seismic zones. The result of the study is useful for the design professionals and cost engineers during early stages of design development and cost planning. The study also highlights the achievable economy in foundation costs through proper evaluation of allowable bearing pressure of soils through adequate geotechnical investigations of the building sites.

INTRODUCTION

Building foundation, as an interface structural component between the building and the supporting ground, perform the important function of transmitting the building loads including the wind and earthquake effects to the supporting soil strata without its shear failure or excessive settlements. At sites with potential for soil liquefaction under earthquake motions, appropriate measures in terms of suitable selection and design of foundations and/or ground improvement techniques are considered based on detailed geotechnical investigations. The selection of suitable foundation systems for multi-storied buildings are governed by several factors like; building loads, wind and earthquake effects, ground profile and water table conditions, chemically aggressive ground conditions, allowable bearing pressure of soils at different depths, provision of basement stories, proximity to adjoining buildings and other project specific requirements. For medium rise multi-storied developments with reinforced concrete framed superstructure, depending upon the building loads and allowable bearing pressure of soils, foundations with isolated footings under the individual columns or raft/mat foundations covering the entire footprint of the building are adopted.The paper presents the quantity of building material of building foundations of reinforced concrete A multi-storied building G+5. G+10,G+15 are designed for seismic forces in the various seismic zones(zone II,zone III, zone IV, zone V) of Indian subcontinent and compared the quantity of reinforced concrete in various zone. The foundation types considered are; isolated footings and raft foundation with different allowable bearing pressure values of the supporting soils.The results of the study are useful for the design professionals and cost engineers during early stages of design development and cost planning. The study also highlights the achievable economy in foundation costs through proper evaluation of allowable bearing pressure of soils through adequate geotechnical investigations of the building sites. Objective of this paper -

Methods of Seismic Analysis of tall RCC building Variation in design parameters by provision of foundation in the RCC building Comparisons in the values of design parameters for different foundation Propose the structurally most efficient foundation for the multi-storey RCC building II. WORK CARRIED OUT

A G+5, G+10, G+15 floors reinforced concrete building analysis is carried out using STAAD Pro V8i software. The lateral loads to be applied on the buildings are based on the Indian Standard. Building is analysed according to IS456-2008 and earthquake loading is applied as per the recommendation of IS 1893-2002.The study is performed for seismic zone II,III,IV,V as per IS 1893-2002 and foundation design is carried out for all zone with varying SBC 100KN/m2, 150KN/m2 and 200KN/m2.
