In this thesis a G+6 storey building is evaluated and analysed for its seismic resistance. Indian Standard IS-1893:2002 (Part-1) has been followed for the analysis procedure. Building has been modelled in commercial software ETABS. The principle objective of this project is to analyse a multi-storeyed building using ETABS. The innovative and revolutionary new ETABS is the ultimate integrated software package for the structural analysis and design of buildings. The primary parameters of the seismic investigation of structures are load carrying capacity, ductility, stiffness, damping and mass. The different parameters like base shear, story drift, forces and so on are figured. The story drift was found to be within permissible limits as per IS 1893:2002. The base shear and Storey forces showed a change of -37%.50% and more than 100% increase for zone II, IV and V respectively. The maximum Storey Drift for zone II, IV & V was found to be 0.01211, 0.09985 & 0.10253.The frame was found to be adequately designed for seismic loads in zone II and III. However, needs a little variation in design for zone IV and V.
