Análise da influência da altura do edifício no valor do parâmetro 𝛾𝑧 utilizando a inércia equivalente de Branson. 2019. 112f.

For this purpose, was adopted as the object of analysis a flat frame of a reinforced concrete residential building where, keeping the same floor type, the frame was analyzed for 9 different heights, being 4 (12 m), 6 (18 m), 8 (24 m), 10 (30 m), 12 (36 m) , 14 (42 m), 16 (48 m), 18 (54 m) and 20 (60 m) floors. The analysis of the frames was held with the Ftool software, considering the reduced inertia of the structural elements according to the referenced standard code in an analysis and in another was adopted for the beams the Branson’s equivalent inertia. Both analyses were conducted to four concrete resistance classes: C30, C45, C60 and C80. From the results of the coefficient 𝛾𝑧 of each frame obtained by two analyses, it was found that the reduction coefficients adopted by the standard code, 𝐼𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑛=0,8𝐼𝑐 e 𝐼𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑚=0,4𝐼𝑐, tends to overestimate the values of the coefficient 𝛾𝑧 of porticos and underestimate them in highest frames, compared the analysis considering 𝐼𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑛=0,8𝐼𝑐 e 𝐼𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑚=𝐼𝑒,𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑑 according to Branson.Estabilidade globalCoeficiente 𝛾𝑧Não-linearidade físicaInércia de BransonbachelorThesis
