                                from slabs and weight of wall. The main beams 
                                were analyzed by two cycle 
                                moment distribution method and designed 
                                by limit state method. |

                                by two cycle momet distribution 
                                method and designed for axial loads and

                                & Design of FootingsThe footings were proportioned so that the bearing 
                                pressure does not exceed the safe bearing capacity 
                                of the soil. The bending moments and shears were 
                                determined at critical sections and the footings 
                                as isolated footing were designed by limit 
                                state method.

                                Analysis of FramesMulti storied frames have high degree of static 
                                and kinematic indeterminacy. A rigorous analysis 
                                of such frames consume considerable resources, 
                                time and effort. Hence the building codes allow 
                                approximate methods based on many simplifications 
                                and assumptions, there by affecting a compromise 
                                between the expenses, time and effort incurred 
                                in performing a rigorous analysis and the savings 
                                resulting there from.

                                cycle moment distribution method 
                                is used to analyse frames. It is an approximate 
                                method based on the assumptions that transfer 
                                of moments does not take place from floor to floor. 
                                The method gives sufficiently accurate results 
                                due to the fact that moments carried from floor 
                                to floor through columns are small compared t 
                                beam moments.
 The analysis of multi story frame is done by considering 
                                one floor at a time. Each floor is taken with 
                                column above and below and maintain and shears 
                                are calculated in beams and columns.
