Abstract
The principle objective of this thesis work is to detailed study the simulation tools (ETABS 2016 and STAAD.ProV8i) for analysis and design of a multi-storied building. The design methods used in STAAD.Pro and ETABS are limit state design method as per Indian standard code. ETABS and STAAD.pro features a state-of-the-art user interface, visualization tools, influential analysis and design engines with progressive finite element and dynamic analysis abilities. From model generation, analysis and design to visualization and outcome verification, STAAD.Pro and ETABS software are the expert’s choice. First, this thesis work considered a reinforced cement concrete frame in STAAD.Pro and ETABS software with the dimension of 4 bays @4.0m in x – axis and 6 bays @ 4.0m in z- axis. Where bay stands of the distance between two columns or member. The y-axis of structure consisted of height of building (G+4, G+30 floors). Each Floor has specific height as per structure criteria. In this structure all floor had 3 m height each. Design of respective structure for Wind Load, Dead Load, Live Load and seismic load for calculation of all loads prefer IS 875(part-1), IS 875(part-2), IS875(part-3), IS1893-2002 Code. Indian Standard code 875(part-3)- 1987gives complete information about design of Wind load effect on building. Wind load calculation for G+4 and G+30 floors structure by STAAD.Pro and ETABS software with consideration of given wind intensities at different level of structure and design structure for wind load as per IS 875(part-3) code.
