Earthquakes are known to produce one of the most destructive forces on earth. It has been seen that during past earthquakes many of the building were collapsed. Therefore, realistic method for analysis and design are required. Performance Based Design is the modern approach for earthquake resistant design. It is an attempt to predict the performance of buildings under expected seismic event. It involves the calculation of load and total Seismic weight of building from that the base shear is calculated in different zone. The study is carried out with the help of both manual calculations and ETABS software for a three story building in the campus. Analysis of structure is used to verify the fitness of the structure for use. To perform 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 system is software developed by Computers and Structures, Inc. (CSI). 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 and the like. To perform 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 behavior.
