Navi Mumbai the city in Maharashtra where the unique structure name Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Udyan is held in the center of attraction for the Mumbai city. The Lotus Temple well-renowned structure is been awarded for its unique design & structure by Seven Epic, the height of the structure are 49m, The structure is spread along 48.9m wide. Maharashtra has been hit by a mega-quake of 6.2 Richter scale on Sep 30, 1993, and recently on July 14, 2018, Indian metrological department (IMD) confirm that earthquake of magnitude in Mumbai 2.8 Richter scale and 30 August 2017 due to heavy rainfall was noted. That is the reason being analyzing and design Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Udyan for earthquake forces. The research is done on Dome shaped structure subjected to seismic loadings. To assess the seismic vulnerability of buildings with large domes, the dynamic characteristics and behaviour of large reinforced concrete domes with long spans need to be studied and their susceptibility to damage need to be evaluated. This study
presents the first step towards assessing the seismic vulnerability of buildings with large reinforced concrete domes.
