    As a part of the four year course of Bachelor’s in Civil Engineering at Tribhuvan University in fourth year, Project I and II were included on the curriculum where we were given an opportunity to analyze and design a building by applying the theoretical knowledge that we obtained over the period of 4 years. In this project “Earthquake Resistant Design of Multi-Storied RCC Commercial Building”, we idealized, analyzed and designed a commercial building abiding by IS codes and NBC codes. The main aim of this project work was to synthesize comprehensively the knowledge gained during course work for a practical application of civil engineering discipline in real life. Reinforced Concrete is the most commonly used construction material for building houses, complexes in Nepal. Structures built must provide a feeling of safety, comfort and must not harm residents living even during calamities like fire, earthquake etc. Hence, in this report all the measures are adopted to make the structure functional, stable, economic and safe. Codes like IS:456; 2000, IS:1893;2016, IS 13920-2016, NBC:105;2020 SP 16-1980, SP 34-1987 were used and software like AUTOCAD, ETABS, SAP etc were used for drawing, analyzing and modeling the structure. Despite the resource and time limitation, the project has been completed successfully on time. With the hope that the design and drawings will be enough as per ductile design consideration and Codal provision, we have completed the report on the building project. Although every care has been taken to remove all the mistakes, yet some of them might have remained unnoticed. We will feel grateful if errors are brought or for any suggestions, comments or opinions.
