This analytical study begins on a comprehensive investigation into the behavior of two distinct types of RCC wall panels solid panels and panels featuring central opening, under Uniformly distributed loading.

This analytical study investigates the behavior of Reinforced Concrete (RCC) solid wall panels and RCC wall panels with central openings under Uniformly distribute loading conditions. The study is done using ETABS software, to simulate the response of these structural elements and analyze their performance in terms of load deflection curve, stress contour.

Underpinning this research is the application of advanced computational tools, with a primary emphasis on the utilization of the finite element analysis ETABS software. This tool serves as the means to intricately simulate and analyze the performance of the RCC wall panels. By testing these panels under Uniformly distributed loading, the study aims to unravel essential facets, including deformation characteristics, stress propagation, and response of the structural systems.

The central objective revolves around comprehending the dynamic characteristics of both solid and perforated wall panels in the context of Uniformly distributed loading scenarios that emulate real-world seismic occurrences and other dynamic forces. The study further incorporates systematic variations in opening and their impact on the structural response.

In conclusion, this research makes an exact contribution to the existing knowledge in the field, offering practitioners invaluable insights into the dynamic responses of RCC wall panels when subjected to Uniformly distributed loading conditions.

Additionally, the study highlights the significance of stress contours in comprehending the behavior of these wall panels under Uniformly distributed loading. Contours provide a visual representation of stress distribution across the panels. Using ETABS software, this study shows the advanced computational tools in predicting and visualizing complex structural responses,

To compare the two-wall panel performance in terms of load-carrying capacity, displacement and how the stress is distribution.

Analysis will be performed using finite element software E-tabs.

R.K.L. Su, S.M. Wong (2016) conducted an experimental study on three reinforced concrete (RC) wall panel specimens to study the effects of axial load. The walls in the form of a slender vertical cantilever, fabricated with HSC and HLR, were tested. The effects of ALR and confinement on failure, ductility, strength degradation, and axial load capacity were critically examined.

In structural engineering, understanding the behavior of reinforced concrete (RCC) wall panels under dynamic loading conditions is of paramount importance to ensure the safety and resilience of built structures. As the modern construction evolves to address very different architectural and functional requirements, the performance of different
