Abstract: The Shear walls are commonly used as a vertical structural element. They are used for resisting the lateral loads which are induced by the loads due to wind and earthquake. Besides shear walls also carry gravity loads. An attempt is made for seismic analysis of RCC building with shear wall at different locations using STAAD pro. A 6 storey building is taken under consideration. Four different Model of RCC building are used, one with no shear wall and other four models with different position of shear wall. Results will be obtained from analysis and plotted to compare and to have knowledge of behavior of RCC framed structures with shear walls using Response spectrum Analysis which is subjected to earthquake load in zone V. The parameters like storey drift, lateral displacement, and base shear will be studied and suitable location of shear wall will be determined among these models. This study also incorporates how the shear force, bending moment for beam and axial Force for column vary with change in the position of RC shear wall. The whole analysis is done on STAAD. Pro V8i software.
