TECHNICAL PROJECTS
Nonlinear Analysis of a 7-Storey Reinforced Concrete Wall Building on ETABS, Term Project, University of British Columbia January 2019 – April 2019 Description: Final term project was done by a team of 2 members for a graduate course CIVL 509- Nonlinear Structural Analysis. In this project the simulation of actual experiment was done using ETABS, in which a 3-D model was developed for the actual building; using the real cross-section of the different components of the building. ETABS is very efficient software for nonlinear analysis of the building, because it can very well capture the non-linearity of the structure. This project described the development of the 3-D model based on the actual parameters, and the analysis of the building for the same four earthquakes that were used in the actual experiment, and the results determined using ETABS and the actual measured data.
Ambient Vibration Test of West Mall Swing Space Building-UBC, Term Project, University of British Columbia January 2019 – April 2019 Description: A team of 4 members did final term project. This project, a part of the graduate course CIVL 508-Dynamics of Structures II, was completed in three months from mid-January to mid-April. The objective of this project was to study response of an actual building by studying its frequencies and mode shapes. To this effect, the project was divided into three major components - Instrumentation, Modeling and Analysis. A full test to record lateral and vertical accelerations of the building was conducted on March 8th, 2019 from 8AM to 3PM. These ambient vibration test results were analyzed to find actual mode shapes of the structure using ARTeMIS Modal, a software for Operational and Experimental Modal Analysis. After acquiring structural drawings from UBC, a structural model was built in SAP2000 (v.20) and dynamic analysis was performed. Planning, Analysis and Design of Multi-storeyed Framed Structure for Lateral and Gravity Loads – Manual and Computer Aided, Islamic Azad University May 2004 – June 2005 Description: Managed a group of 3 members successfully in planning 8-Storey apartment using design software such as SAP2000, SAFE, and ETABS. SAP2000, SAFE, and ETABS are special softwares were utilized in design. Analyzed and designed beams, columns and staircase using different methods both manually and computer aided. The buildings were also analyzed for lateral loads like earthquake load, wind load, using ETABS software for different load combinations. AWARDS
