There are a large number of rivers in the country which widens the scope of inland waterways. The ports and harbours are major structural engineering aspect of inland waterway. This study mainly deals with analysis of berthing structure and multi storeyed building located in a river port with reference to seismic version of IS 1893:2016. Six different models of berthing structure are considered for analytical comparison using SAP 2000 (i) berthing structure supported on vertical piles (ii) berthing structure with diaphragm wall and tie rod (iii) berthing structure with front diaphragm wall and supported on vertical piles (iv)berthing structure with front diaphragm wall and supported on vertical and raker piles (v) berthing structure with rear diaphragm wall and supported on vertical piles (vi) berthing structure with rear diaphragm wall and supported on vertical piles. The static analysis and dynamic analysis including response spectrum were carried out. The results show that model 1 is the most efficient in terms of deflection, moments acting, base shear and the seismic performance. The analysis of building is done by using response spectrum analysis in ETABS 2015. The new version of seismic code IS 1893:2016 is used for the seismic analysis of building. © 2018 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).
