We are aware of the problem and challenges posed by housing in the present age of shrinking space, shrinking time and rising expectation. It has become common for any institution, providing hostel facility nearby for students. To accommodate 250 students, we have designed G+8 building with staircase and lift as well. The model is prepared in ETABS software. It is the great software which can handle high rise building and most complex structures. It can analyze all the members like beam, column, slab, shear walls etc. The results can be downloaded after it is analyzed without any errors with ETABS, we can easily analyze different materials like concrete, steel, reinforced concrete etc., It has the facility of generating gravity loads, lateral loads, self-weights automatically. Structural design is art and science of designing with economy and elegance, a safe serviceable and a durable structure, primarily to meet the functional requirements and economy of the structure for its intended use over the life span of the structure are looked by the structural designer. There are many types of buildings exist in this world. Such as RCC, steel, timber and composite buildings etc. But the common types are RCC buildings constructed because the designing and construction of RCC buildings are easier. Availability of materials, labours and machinery are easier in this field. All these factors help in timely construction and economic buildings. But on the structural design point of view many structures are constructed without design or on the guidance of lay men. This practice is not good for the buildings. Due to lack of awareness, buildings are not safe for earthquake and other forces. Due to construction of dams, mining and underground explosions buildings are not stable. For the safety and stability of the building structural design is must. Now days, most of the buildings are designed and analysed by the software. STAAD. pro is the easy software used to designed buildings. Buildings are designed by the static method due to lack of time. On the other hand, dynamic analysis is a time-consuming process and requires additional input related to mass of the structure, and an understanding of structural dynamics for interpretation of analytical results.
