Abstract: Lateral load on a multistory building is most critical one to consider for the design. In order to observe the seismic effect and wind effect on multi-story building, a study on precast load bearing wall of G+11 has been carried out. Four different seismic zones and all wind zones are considered for analysis using ETABS. The structural response due to lateral loads with load combination is extracted. Effect of lateral load on out-of-plane moments, axial forces, shear force, base shear, maximum storey drift and tensile forces on shear wall are plotted. Finally the effect of seismic zone and wind zone is tabulated.
