Abstract :

At present scenario, in urban Areas, Due to increase in population and scarcity of land, many buildings are constructing on sloping ground. But it is quite difficult to achieve such conditions, such as architectural requirements and functional needs. Most of the hilly regions in India are highly seismic. A building on hill slope differs in different way from normal buildings. Therefore, it is need of time to structurally analyse and design such hazards resisting structures so as to save human life and avoid property damage. In this research G+10 Storey building structure of size 15mx15m assumed to be located in seismic zone II, as per Indian standard code, is considered. Linear static and linear dynamic (response spectrum method) analysis has been performed using ETABS software for two building models and the dynamic response quantities such as fundamental time period, base shear, storey displacement and inter-storey drift were obtained for all the models.
