It is a well established fact that the regular building perform better than the irregular buildings during seismic event. In IS 1893 (Part 1) : 2016, plan and vertical irregularities are defined in Table no. 5 & 6 of the code. The building is said to be irregular if any one of the irregularity is present in the building. It is mentioned in the code that all the efforts shall be made to eliminate irregularities by modifying architectural planning and structural configurations.
For each irregularity, mathematical limits are defined in the code as well as further action is detailed out whenever the irregularity exceeds the defined limits.
