        abstract = {The structural analysis and design of multi-story buildings play a crucial role in ensuring safety, stability, and efficient material utilization. This study focuses on the analysis and design of a G+8-2 residential building, incorporating modern structural engineering principles and design methodologies. The building configuration includes G+8 floors and two basements, designed to accommodate residential occupancy while adhering to seismic and wind load considerations. The analysis is conducted using finite element modeling (FEM) techniques in software like STAAD.Pro, ensuring precise structural response evaluation under various loading conditions. The study incorporates gravity loads (dead and live loads), lateral loads (earthquake and wind loads), and soil-structure interaction to determine the structural integrity of the building. Design aspects follow IS 456:2000, IS 1893:2016, and IS 13920:2016 to ensure compliance with Indian standards for reinforced concrete structures and seismic resistance. Key findings highlight the optimization of column and beam dimensions, reinforcement detailing, and foundation design, ensuring cost-effectiveness without compromising safety. The study also evaluates serviceability criteria such as deflection, drift, and vibration response. The results provide insights into efficient structural design methodologies for high-rise residential buildings, enhancing structural resilience and occupant safety.},
