Abstract: A building is the first structure, which pops into anyone’s head as soon as one thinks of civil engineering. A building not only provides housing to its habitants but it also safeguards them from many natural adversities. Preventing all the forces causing such incidents is the need for designing the building. But designing a building requires going through a myriad of processes. The various factors have to be taken into consideration before commencing the actual work of designing a building, which is carried out before the construction work. The type of building and its design depends on the purpose for which it is built. This paper aims in designing, which is not only innovative but also endeavors to explore a new facet of civil engineering. The design process involves determining the size of the different components of the building and checking the stability of the building for various external forces to which it is subjected. The paper comprises of RCC building having G+4 floors which have been elevated from the ground floor for four floors. The proposed building is a commercial building. The shear wall will act as a single core. The shear wall will be connected to each other with a network of beams/ slabs with the slabs acting as in plane rigid diaphragms for each of the floors. . As the structure is resisting only on a single core the shear wall will be provided in such a way to control deflections and resist lateral forces. Shear wall will be provided in such a way to control deflections and resist lateral forces. Provision is done in design in such a way that services can be laid without major obstructions and maximum headroom is achieved.
