Experience in past earthquakes has demonstrated that many common buildings and typical methods of construction lack basic resistance to earthquake forces. In most cases this resistance can be achieved by following simple, inexpensive principles of good building construction practice. Apart from gravity loads, the structure will experience dominant lateral forces of considerable magnitude during earthquake shaking. It is essential to estimate and specify these lateral forces on the structure in order to design the structure to resist an earthquake. It is impossible to exactly determine the earthquake induced lateral forces that are expected to act on the structure during its lifetime. However, considering the consequential effects of earthquake due to eventual failure of the structure, it is important to estimate these forces in a rational and realistic manner. In this study,equivalent static force analysis procedure as per IS 1893(PART I) for four storey RCC building is been carried out and theoretical results are compared with modeling of building in STAAD Pro software .
