Abstract | Flooding, worsened by urban development in vulnerable areas, requires both structural and non-structural measures to manage risks. Current RC building codes like IS 456:2000 and ASCE 07-2002 address seismic and wind loads but often overlook flood-specific impacts. This project integrates flood loads into RC building analysis using CSI-ETABS, simulating flood conditions with a 3-meter depth and 3 m/s flow velocity across RC buildings on both flat and 20-degree slope surfaces with fixed-base and pile foundations. Key findings reveal that base shear increases by 51.9% in pile versus fixed foundations. Displacement rises by up to 8.26% in regular models on flat surfaces, while story acceleration increases by 12.34%, indicating heightened sensitivity to flood loads in certain configurations. Further analysis highlights that bending moments are highest in 0-degree irregular models with pile foundations but decrease by 4.26% when comparing flood to earthquake loads. Vertical irregularities raise seismic risk by 25%, while regular models on a 20-degree slope with either fixed or pile foundations demonstrate greater stability. To ensure safety under flood and seismic loads, recommended structural dimensions include beams of 230 x 600 mm, columns of 500 x 500 mm, and a slab thickness of 150 mm. These results underscore the need to include flood load considerations in building codes to enhance urban resilience against severe flood events. |
