In order to satisfy the proposed norms, G+6 storey reinforced concrete (RCC) and composite hospital building have been analyzed by NDMA guidelines. Response spectra method of analysis and earthquake zone III was considered. Various parameters like base shear, storey drift, story displacement, shear force, bending moment and axial force were worked out and compared. Analysis results shows RCC hospital building is having the less value of story drift and storey displacement as compared to the composite hospital building. The proposed approach for the analysis of hospital building by NDMA guidelines is useful to provide structurally safe solution from disasters.</p> ER -
