ANALYSIS OF RESIDENTIAL BUILDING
Abstract: The main steps of any building construction and planning is drafting, analysing and
designing the building. In the present days of improving science and technology, analysing and
designing of a building has been made easy by using ETABS software. ETABS software helps
civil engineers to make their work easy and decreases time necessary for planning.
The project going to be done is design of a multi-storey building which is going to be
used as a residential. The building plan has been drafted using the AutoCAD software by the
requirement and available area. The super structure i.e. the building frame has been analysed and
designed using the ETABS software.
In the present project C+G+5 building consider to analysis and design for gravity and
lateral (wind and earth quake) loads as per Indian standards.
By using the software building can be analysed and we can check for any failures in the
analysis and redesign them, so that we can prevent failures after construction. By using the
output building can be constructed according to the design.
Keywords: Building, Wind and Earth quake, ETABS.

Concrete structures provide a vast
availability in the field of civil engineering.
It has redefined the construction methods
and building high-rise structures at easy.
Concrete structures also include various
structures like Dams, retaining walls,
bridges and skyscrapers. After the
introduction of concrete cement in before
Christ era, it has been in the construction
field since then. It is the basic requirement
for the building of any structure which is of
vital importance. In India concrete
structures are used almost everywhere, even
the simple residential blocks are concrete
made unlike in western countries where the
houses are made of wood. Concrete has
been the most favourable material in the
field of construction because of its
properties as it is durable, strong, resistant
and reliable. It is used under various types
of Reinforced Cement Concrete, plain
cement concrete, and various under the
same categories. The necessity and
importance of concrete are immense.
Objectives
1. To understand basic principles of the
structure using IS codes.
2. To analyse the structural details of the
structure.
