Abstract: For designing of an earthquake-resistant structure we follow Indian Seismic design codes are exclusive to a particular country or region. Moreover these seismic codes considered all the criteria such as building typologies, accepted level of seismic risk, local seismology. IS 1893 is an Indian seismic code that provides the seismic zone map and specifies seismic design force. The Bureau of Indian Standard (IS: 1893 (Part-1) 2002) classified India into 4 seismic zones (i.e. Zone II, Zone III, Zone IV & Zone V) and the code allocates 4 levels of seismic intensities as zone factors. But this code does not provide any information regarding how much of required percentage of steel-reinforcement has been increased from zone to zone. The main objective for presenting this project is to obtain the increment in the required percentage of steel-reinforcement for various zones by analyzing a multistory Apartment Building with Stilt + G + 3 Floors as per Indian Standard Codes IS 456 : 2000 and IS 1893 (Part – 1) 2002 using STAAD-Pro Software. 
Keywords: Earthquake Analysis and Design using STAAD-Pro V8i SS6 software, Seismic Zones-II, III, IV & V, IS 456: 2000, IS 1893 (Part-1) 2002.
Scope of the Article: Software analysis, design and modelling
