The Dormitory building is a G+6 Storeys, Zone 4, to be designed for EQ forces. Problem Statment - Torsion in building due to plan configuration, eccentric location of infill walls. Add two frames in toilet area to make it stiffer and determine the extent of torsion. Model infill walls using equivalent strut method and determine further increase in torsion. Determine whether system is torsionally irregular or not as per IS 1893. Provide measures for reducing torsion in such cases
