Abstract-currently due to high cost of land many buildings are constructed up to their property line without considering the minimum separation distance of the buildings that leads collision of the building during an earthquake effect and also leads to total collapse of the buildings. Then this article mainly focused to solve this problem mainly for determining the separation distance of the adjacent buildings by considering zone IV and medium soil type. Modelling and analysis of the adjacent buildings has been done using finite element software and Indian standard code. Consequently, the result shows that the adjacent building has different modes and this leads for determining separation distance.
