Abstract: A six-story reinforced concrete structure area to a

seismic hazard can be analyzed; as soon as the member has
yielded, the plastic hinge will likely be used to symbolize the mode
of failure in the beams and columns. The pushover analysis is
carried out on constructing utilizing an identical static process
from ETABS-2016 and IS 1893-2016. The analysis is regulated
through efficiency-situated warmness engineering legal
guidelines, even as an inelastic structural evaluation is combined
with seismic hazard to calculate the expected seismic
performance of the structure. The building's basis shear v / s roof

VII. CONCLUSION:
In this study, the primary job is to use a nonlinear static
assessment to obtain the seismic efficiency of construction.
This study's conclusion can be described as below.
 Pushover analysis could be a comparatively easy
method of monitoring the building's nonlinear
behaviour.
 The technique of capability range shows the building's
complete power against collapse, which is large and
there is an adequate supply of power and displacement.
 The technique of capability range shows the building's
complete power against collapse, which is large and
there is an adequate supply of power and displacement.
[7].
 The final conclusion for this project linear static method
is good enough to only low to medium height buildings
with regular confirmation.
 The considered model of building resists major seismic
forces.
 Analysis of pushover could be a comparatively easy
way to track the building's nonlinear behavior.
 A critical reason is found, that's the immediate
occupancy level condition. In that area structure have
minor visible cracks obtain.
 The structure can behave resisting major earthquake
forces throughout the imposed seismic excitation.
 Inverted ‘v’ (Ʌ) is an inexpensive and excellent lateral
load resistant to compare with X-bracing design.
