Seismic Analysis and Design of Multistorey (G+9) RCC Building Using Staad Pro

Reinforced Concrete Frames are the most commonly adopted buildings construction practices in India. With growing economy, urbanisation and unavailability of horizontal space increasing cost of land and need for agricultural land, high-rise sprawling structures have become highly preferable in Indian buildings scenario, especially in urban. With high-rise structures, not only the building has to take up gravity loads, but as well as lateral forces. Many important Indian cities fall under high-risk seismic zones, hence strengthening of buildings for lateral forces is a prerequisite. In this study the aim is to analyse the response of a high-rise structure to ground motion using Response Spectrum Analysis. On multistorey building in this project G+9 RCC building is analysed through response spectrum analysis using STAAD PRO software in medium soil of zone (v). The analysis results evaluated the dynamic response in terms of deflection, moment, and designing of the building corresponding to the resulted forces.
