Abstract

In today’s world building with floating columns if a typical feature in multi-storey buildings. Due need of
column free space, aesthetical and functional requirements floating columns are provided at one or more storey at
various positions. These types of provisions are highly disadvantage in seismic active areas. This paper aims to
investigate the behavior of low rise building when provided with floating columns according to center of stiffness at
different floor. Also each model has been analysed with and without effect of infill walls with soft storey. The response
of building obtained in form of horizontal and vertical displacements using SAP 2000 version 14.
