ABSTRACT Natural disasters have been a part of human life on Earth since the dawn of time, wreaking havoc on our lives and property. Earthquake is one of the biggest causes of destruction among the many natural disasters. Sudden ground shaking has posed challenging challenges to the withstanding of structures on the Earth, as well as resulting in the collapse of structures, due of improper design considerations to structures without any seismic resistance. To achieve the desired strength to withstand seismic forces, various shapes and materials are now being considered, as well as various techniques to make the building earthquake resistant. Shear walls, bracings, and base isolation are examples of these techniques. In this paper, we use software to perform a comparative study of earthquake retaining methods on a G+6 storey building using different types of floating columns and shear walls. An un-Retaining structure, Alternate and parallel shear walls, Floating column, and a mixture of both shear wall and floating column are all compared. According to the IS 1893:2002 codal provisions, the study is performed on a G+6 building for seismic Zone IV. Staad pro V8i is the program that we used to conduct the research. Shear walls reduce deflection by raising the building's strength and stiffness, while floating columns are dangerous to remain in because the structure has more deflection than unrestrained seismic techniques.

Keywords: Floating Column, Shear Walls, and Comparative analysis, Earthquake resistant.
