Abstract: The natural disaster that has occurred is an earthquake. Known to humanity for a very long time, researchers have been exploring various methods to protect buildings since they were first discovered. Infill walls are one of the most significant components of a building, as they serve to limit the damage caused by them to the structure, despite the various techniques available for achieving this. Infill walls are also efficient in providing stability to the building. Cladding can take the form of infill walls, which are constructed between the structural parts of a building. The structure offers support for the cladding system, while the cladding itself serves to partition the internal space from the outside world. Other types of cladding panels are attached to the exterior of the frame, but infill walls are installed in the spaces between the framing components. This makes it distinct from other types of cladding panels. Although they are required to withstand wind loads imparted to the face, the infill walls that are being considered for this project are not regarded as load-bearing infill walls. However, they are required to hold their weight. In this project, we will analyse the performance of a reinforced concrete building with a regular plan and different kinds of infill walls using the response spectrum method. The structure is modelled with E-TABS software.
