 Introduction
 This paper presents the analysis and design verification of E-TABS 2018 by calculations using
Indian Standard Codebooks for proposed G+4 general R.C.C commercial building with an
additional lower ground at Ujjain (M.P) as per the relevant codes and standards.
 The structure under consideration is a G+4 general R.C.C commercial building covering an area
of 3141 Sq.Ft (292Sq.M) with total height 46 Ft (14M).
 This structure lies in Zone-II of seismic category.
 Codes followed are IS 456:2000, IS 875 (Part 1) & (Part 2), IS 1893 (Part 1) 2016, Sp-16, Sp-34.
 It is comprised of:-
1. Commercial spaces at lower ground & upper ground floors with parking at lower ground.
2. Office spaces at 1st to 3rd floor .
3. 1 lift 1 main staircase while terrace floor included water tank and spare room.
 Objectives
 The main objective of this study is to analyze and design G+4 commercial building using E-
Tabs software and manual method.
 Comparison of results obtained from E-Tabs software with manual method.
 To draw and give reinforcement details of structural components by using Auto-Cad.
 Methodology
 Defining Properties:- First of all, we have to define material properties, by selecting define
menu then material properties. After that we have to define section properties (the size of
structural components).
 Assigning Properties:- We have to draw the structural components using “Draw line”
command in “Menu” for beams and columns in region.
 Assigning Supports:- By keeping the plan at the base of the structure and selecting all the
columns and beam supports, they are assigned by using assign menu i.e., joint/frame s>
restraints (supports) > fixed, or simply supported whatever is necessary as per design.
 Defining Loads:- The design loads shall be calculated as described in I.S Codes (I.S 875 Part
I to Ⅴ) for different loading conditions and different structures.
 Load Combinations:- For the strength design, load combinations are used as specified in I.S
456:2000. For safety under service load conditions the un-factored load combinations as
specified in I.S Codes shall be used.
 Analysis:- After completion of all the above steps analysis was performed and checked for
errors.
 Design:- Once the analysis of the structure is done. The design of all structural elements was
done as per I.S 456:2000 guidelines.

 Results & Discussions
 Since the investigation gone through alive project, the analysis and designing of structural
members are similar either E-Tabs or Manual work.
 Whereas the input analysis and designing is same the results are obtained and the values of
Shear force & Bending moment shown in figs.

 Conclusion
 From the above study and data revealed by manual design as well as software analysis and
design for the structure, we can conclude that calculation by both manual work as well as
software analysis gives almost same result.
 E-Tabs is perfect software which can be adopted for analysis and design of R.C.C structures.
 Usage of E-Tabs software minimizes the time required for analysis and design.
 The result shows that if construction is done based on the results of the software, can lead to
economy of the construction without compromising with the durability & serviceability of the
structure.
