Abstract

Today in this era, in the field of engineering of designing and construction everybody wants the structure to with
stand for longer period resisting all the forces coming on the building. So, the engineers give their best out come to construct
a building which with stands for a longer period. One of the forces that impacts on building is earthquake forces. The regions
that are prone to earthquake, effectively the engineers construct Earthquake resistant structures. India’s most famous
building Taj Mahal, which is considered as one of the safest building in terms of earthquake. In my paper I am going to
