Two different famous structural building codes have been adopted. Those are the Indian Standards and European Standards. In R.C. buildings, frames are considered as main structural elements, which resist shear, moment and torsion effectively. These frames be subjected to variety of loads, where lateral loads are always predominant. Infrastructures of Gulf countries are always notable as they mainly follow EURO standards for construction development. In view of the demand of such code of practice across the developing countries like India, an attempt is made to compare EURO standards with Indian standards under Seismic Forces. Keywords: Seismic analysis, INDIAN standards, EURO standards, Ductility class, Response reduction factor 1. Introduction During the last two decades, metropolitan cities have attempted to develop vertically to meet the building requirements of large influxes of population into urban areas. Having faced the problems of urban population explosion, lack of land, high land prices and unwieldy slump of cities and towns, attempts have been made in our major cities to provide more built-up space vertically for both working and living. In R.C. buildings, frames are considered as main structural elements, which resist shear, moment and torsion efficiently. These frames are subjected to variety of loads, where lateral loads are always predominant. Earthquake all over the world have affected the seismic resistant design in different countries. In this present study the main factors constitute the seismic load have been studied for various structural system are compared using IS1893 (part1):2002 and BS 1998-1- 2004. 2. Literature Review Following are some highlights about the research work carried in this reports. Khan, F. R et al. [1] Researcher proposed that the performance of any structure depends upon following criteria lateral sway criteria, Thermal movements and Structural and architectural interaction. The main and primary concern is the stability and reliability of the entire structure and structural components, as well as their ability to carry applied loads and forces. Tall and lean buildings are more susceptible to lateral sway and deflections. The minimum limit to structural sizes suggested by various codes and standards are usually enough to support the weight of the building as well as the imposed dead loads and live loads. However, the real challenge for the structural engineer is to find out the structural behaviour of a building under wind and seismic actions. The effects of these external horizontal forces are highly unpredictable, and these mainly depend on building shape, size, mass, floor plan layout, and climatic conditions. M.Anitha & B.Q.Rahman et al.[2] Researchers done the comparison of design of slab using different IS code with other country code and researchers conclude that ACI 318, NZS 3101& Euro codes are most effective in designing of flat slabs. Mendis ,P & Ngo,T et al.[3] Researchers proposed that this demand is always auxiliary to a multitude of variables, such as strength, durability, forming techniques, material characteristics, nature, aesthetics and much more. However, the design intent has always been to accomplish structures deemed to be affordable and safe during their life span. Any structure, to be reliable and durable, must be designed to withstand gravity, wind, earthquakes, equipment and snow loads, to be able to resist high or low temperatures. Dr.K. Subramanian&M.Velayuthamet et al.[4] This paper presents a study on influence of zone factors and the various international codal provisions for various lateral load resisting systems. Special moment resisting frames, shear wall systems and dual systems are taken in the present study. Ductile systems are taken in the study, where inelastic analysis procedures effectively account for several sources of force reduction. In the present study, the main factors which contribute for the seismic load have been studied and dynamic analysis results for various structural systems with various zone factors are compared using various international standards. To illustrate the various seismic parameters governing the seismic forces on the building, analytical study is carried out using ETABS for the various structural systems and the similarities and differences are presented for various international standards. The dynamic analysis results such as modal participating mass ratios, response spectrum base reaction, storey shears, storey displacements and storey drifts are discussed in detail. The influence of zone factor and the codal provisions are discussed when the same building is to be located in different regions and remedial measures if any for their strengthening.
