Analysis and Design of Multi-storey Building using ETabs

Abstract

The construction of multi-storey buildings is on the rise due to the growing population and rapid development. This is primarily driven by the scarcity of land with higher demand and lower prices compared to individual houses. To ensure safety, cost-effectiveness, and adherence to standards, it is essential to analyze and design these buildings using advanced software such as ETabs. The analysis of a G+10 Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) framed structure in this project involves the consideration and application of live loads, dead loads, seismic loads, and wind loads. The objective is to analyse the structural behaviour and ensure compliance with various design codes and standards. The results of analysis are used to confirm the stability of the structure through examination of the Moment Force Diagrams of Axial force, Shear force, Torsion, and Moment. Additionally, the analysis aids in determining the story drifts, story displacements. The provision of reinforcement details is also accomplished through the detailing of beams and columns.
