ABSTRACT: Reinforced concrete (RC) is a composite material in which concrete has relatively low tensile strength
and ductility which are counteracted by the inclusion of reinforcement having high tensile strength or ductility.
Concrete frame structures are a very common or perhaps the most common type of modern buildings. As the name
suggests this type of building consists of a frame or skeleton of concrete. Horizontal members of this frame are called
beams, and the vertical members are called columns. Humans walk on flat planes of concrete called slabs. The
structural design process starts once the form of the structure is selected. The structural design is the art and science of
understanding the behaviour of structural members subjected to loads and designing them with economy and elegance
to give safe, serviceable and durable structure. Structural planning involves position and orientation of column,
positioning of beams, spanning of slabs, layout of stairs, selecting proper type of footing. Analysis of structure is used
to verify the fitness of the structure for use. To perform a accurate analysis information such as structural loads,
geometry, support condition and material properties should be determined. The results of such an analysis typically
include support reactions, stresses and displacements. Advanced structural analysis may examine dynamic response,
stability and nonlinear behaviour.
KEYWORDS: Reinforced concrete,Tensile strength, Ductility,Stability, Horizontal members,Dynamic response.
I.INTRODUCTION
The project is carried out with the help of both manual calculations and ETABS software for a new block (G+3) in
the campus of RAJEEV INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, Hassan.
Analysis of structure is used to verify the fitness of the structure for use. To perform a accurate analysis information
such as structural loads, geometry, support condition and material properties should be determined.
ETABS is the Acronym of EXTENDED 3D ANALYSIS OF BUILDING SYSTEMS is software developed by
Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI); a Berkeley, California based engineering software company founded in 1975.
ETABS is an engineering software product that can be used to analyze and design multi-story buildings using grid-like
geometry, various methods of analysis and solution techniques, considering various load combinations.
ETABS can also handle the largest and most complex building models, including a wide range of nonlinear
behaviors, making it the tool of choice for structural engineers in the building industry.
ETABS can be effectively used in the analysis and design of building structures which might consists of structural
members like beams, columns, slabs, shear walls etc, With ETABS you can easily apply various construction materials
to your structural members like concrete, structural steel, Reinforced Concrete etc. ETABS automatically generates the
self weightsand the resultant gravity and lateral loads.

II. PROBLEM FORMULATION
Types of Load Used
1. Dead load (DL): Dead load defined as the load on a structure owing to it is possessed weight (self-weight). It also
adds other loads if some permanent structure is added to that structure.
2. Live load (LL): Live load or impose load is distinct load on the structure due to distressing weight. The live load
varies according to the type of structure. For example, usually for a Residential Building the live load taken as 3 to 5
KN/m2
Calculation of Loads
1. Main wall load: (Commencing above plinth area to below the Roof) should be the area of the cross sectional wall
multiplied by unit weight of the brick. (Unit weight of is brick taken as 12 KN/m3). Usually understanding concept of
the plinth load to the IS-code be supposed to be partially of the main wall load. Internal plinth load should be half of the
plinth load.
2. Slab load: Arrangement of slab load+ floor finishes of slab. Slab load be able to be deliberate by breadth and width
of slab multiplied by unit weight of material (according to IS-code unit weight of concrete is taken as 2.5 KN/m3).
3. Floor finish load: Floor load is a live load acting on the floor in a building, which taken as 1.5 KN/m3.
4. Live load: Live load is functional all over the burnt brick masonry structure with the exception of plinth. Usually
Live load varies according to the types of structure. For inhabited, building live load is taken as -5 KN/m2 on each
floor. Negatives sign indicates its acting on downward direction.

Therefore, the average % difference in Area of steel and Moments of the portal frame from ETABS software
and manual calculation are obtained as 1.12 % and 6.44% respectively.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
The design and analysis of the multistoried building is carried out by ETABS software and the same is carried out for a
portal frame of the structure by manual calculation. The analysis of the structure is carried out manually with the help
of Kani’s Method and the design is carried out by Limit State Method. The results obtained from ETABS software and
manual calculation are compared and it shows the average % difference of Area of steeland momentsof the portal frame
as 1.12 % and 6.44 % respectively.
Hence, after comparing ETABS software with manual calculation, it can be concluded that ETABS software
gives nearly accurate results and can be used for the design and analysis of multistoried structures.
