Abstract:Steel-Concrete composite constructions are nowadays very popular due to their advantages over conventional Reinforced Cement Concrete constructions. Composite Construction combines the better properties of both steel and concrete along with economical, speedy construction, hazardous formwork etc. Hence the objective of this paper is to compare a R.C.C frame building and Steel- concrete composite frame building located in seismic zone-IV and analysis of (G+12) stories R.C.C frame building and Steel- concert composite frame building under the effect of earthquake using ETABS 2016 software. The method of equivalent static analysis has been used for the seismic analysis as per is 1893(part I):2002. The comparison of results analysis in terms of time period, axial force, story drift, story shear, is presented here. It is observed that Steel-concrete composite building is better option than R.C.C building.

Keywords: Composite, RCC Structures, Earthquake, Time period, Axial force, Storey drift, Storey shear, etc
