Abstract: Due to rapid on-going horizontal development and restricted vertical development of buildings has resulted in congestion of cities and shrinkage of agricultural land, particularly in high seismic zones. For vertical development, there is a need for the construction of buildings as high as possible. The restriction to the vertical development is due to the reason that high rise structures are more vulnerable to lateral loads acting on the building resulting from the seismic events. With a background in view, the current work studies the seismic responses of a multi-storey complex building with concrete-filled steel tube columns (CFST). In present work, CFST columns of different sizes were used for the study of a Ground+12 storey building with plan dimensions 35m x 30m, situated in seismic Zone-V and medium soil type as per IS 1893-2016 classification. The Response spectrum analysis was carried out for different building models as per IS 1893:2016 provisions. E-TABS software was used for three-dimensional modelling and analysis of buildings. Several response parameters like fundamental time period, maximum storey displacement, maximum storey drift, storey shear and overturning moment are considered in this study to evaluate the performance of the building. It was concluded that CFST columns perform well for high seismic zones even at smaller cross-sectional dimensions.
