Analysis and Design of the Main Building of Five Star Hotel

Abstract – This study focuses on the comprehensive planning and structural design of the main building of five-star hotel using STAAD.Pro software. The project aims to integrate luxury architecture with structural safety, optimizing both functionality and aesthetics. The hotel is planned as a multi- storey reinforced concrete (RCC) structure, featuring various high-end facilities such as lobbies, restaurants, suites, and conference halls. Structural design was carried out in accordance with relevant IS codes, considering various loads including dead, live, wind, and seismic forces. STAAD.Pro enabled efficient modeling and precise analysis of the structural framework, ensuring stability and cost- effectiveness. Member sizing was optimized based on strength, serviceability, and material economy. The final layout also supports future expansion and accommodates service integration such as HVAC and plumbing. This project demonstrates the importance of structural software in delivering reliable, compliant, and performance-based designs for complex commercial buildings in the hospitality sector. Key Words: Staad.Pro, Rcc design, hotel planning, seismic load, IS code, compliances.
