The International Journal of Civil, Structural and Concrete Engineering is a peer reviewed journal presenting papers on various interdisciplinary fields. Structural and Concrete engineering come under the broad scope of civil engineering and both these are separate disciplines in their own right. However, as both structural and structural engineers need to coordinate with the architect, this journal aims to publish research works that helps in such coordination.
This journal invites papers on the following subjects but research scholars are encouraged to suggest their own ideas for submitting papers on civil, structural and concrete engineering:
- Structural Dynamics
- Concrete Structures
- Structural Analysis with Matrix Computer Methods
- Steel Structures
- Theory of Elasticity and Plasticity
- Soil Structure Interaction
- Finite Element Analysis
- Aseismic Design of Structures
- Disaster Resistant Structures
- Disaster Resistant Structures
- Industrial Structures
- Maintenance and Rehabilitation of Structures
- Architectural Engineering
- Architectural Detailing
- Architectural Design
- Elementary Structures
- Architectural Graphics
- Mechanical/Electrical Systems in Buildings
- Computer-Aided Drafting
- Materials Testing
- Strength of Materials
- Construction Materials and Methods
- Contracts and Specifications

Abstract:-Since the beginning of modern age, building a structure on a soft soil has always been a challenge for engineers. Apart from gravity loads, effect lateral load like earthquake load can vary due to soil type. The problem of soil-structure interaction in the seismic analysis and design of structures has become increasingly important, as it may be inevitable to build structures at locations with less favorable geotechnical conditions in seismically active regions. The study was carried out to assess the effect of soil stiffness and conditions on RC frame displacement based on BNBC 2006 and proposed BNBC 2015. The variation in structural displacement due to different cases is investigated in this research. The structural displacements based on BNBC 2015 are always greater than that of BNBC 2006 for all proposed cases, considering similar soil condition. For all soil conditions, maximum increment in deflection generated for case 5 while the lowest increment found for case 2, as the analyses were static linear consideration, the earthquake load greatly influenced by the seismic zone coefficients. As the second highest deflection occurred in case 2 with the least increment, the structural cost in case 2 areas would be comparatively high considering the other areas but the structures will be least critical for new code consideration when the other parameters are same.
