The word ‘composite’ in composite material signifies that two or more materials are combined on a macroscopic scale to form a useful material and the individual materials are easily distinguishable. In the present work RCC structure with steel concrete composite options are considered for comparative study of G+20 story building which is situated in earthquake zone-II and for earthquake loading, the provisions of IS: 1893 (Part1)-2002 is considered. The design and analysis of the structure are carried out with the help of STAAD-PRO software. The results are compared and found that composite structure more economical.
