📋 About the Project
Complete structural analysis & design of a commercial building
This project, completed during the Final Year of B.E. Civil, involved the complete structural modeling, analysis, and design of a multi-storey commercial building located in a high seismic zone. The objective was to ensure the structure meets seismic performance requirements, adheres to design standards, and demonstrates safe behavior under gravity and lateral loads.
