Abstract

Abstract: During the past few years the earthquakes have dealt a lot of damage to life and property in India. To overcome this, the need for advancement in construction is necessary. With Scarcity of area and overgrowing population the need of constructing High Rise building has been increasing. Traditional high rise structures are tend to be weak against additional load pressure or earthquakes. To counter such situations and to reduce the effect of such calamity with the help of structural analysis and use of methods like Base Isolation, X bracing and Shear Wall, the intensity of such problem can be reduced to a wide extent. This paper represents the comparison of various methods on normal high rise building with the use of Midas Gen ,ETABS and STAAD pro..We took the case for Seismic zone 2 with medium soil category. Structural engineering software has progressed significantly in recent years. MIDAS GEN, ETABS and STAAD pro conducts structural design and analysis packages that support multiple types of concrete, steel, aluminum and timber international design codes.
