important in the present scenario. Conventional structural design methods neglect the Soil structure Interaction (SSI) effects. Ignoring of SSI is reasonable for light structures in relatively hard soil. The effect of SSI, however becomes very dangerous for heavy structures resting on relatively soft soils such as clay silt. In order to study the effect, a G+9 storey structure resting on piled raft foundation is modelled in ANSYS 21. The effect of soil structure interaction on seismic response of building resting on three different types of soil- stiff clay, silty sand and hard rock is compared with the response of building with fixed base(without soil).Static and dynamic(response spectrum) analysis were performed to evaluate the total deformation and equivalent stress. On comparing the values of total deformation and equivalent stress of the building it is found that the structure with soil shows greater deformation and equivalent stress than structure without soil and silty sand shows the greatest
2. PROBLEM STATEMENT This paper analyses the effect of SSI on multi storey building under seismic loading. Aimed with the purpose, a G+9 building with piled raft foundation is analysed by Ansys 21 subjected to combination of gravity load and seismic load. Compare the same building using 3 types of soil with that of the building with fixed base.

1. INTRODUCTION
4.1 Geometry of the Building
In the seismic analysis of a structure resting on the ground, the response of the sub-soil affects the response of the structure and vice versa. Also, the structure displacements and the ground displacements are not independent of each other. This phenomenon is called soilstructure interaction (SSI). Thus the soil structure interaction can be defined as the process in which the response from the soil influences the motion of the structure and the motion of the given structure affects the response from the soil [1].
For this study, 10 storey building with piled raft foundation has been considered. A simple structure with base dimension 12m x 12m was modeled. Cross-section properties of superstructure elements have been kept same for all floors, column – 300 x600mm, beam – 300x50mm & floor slab – 150mm and cross-section properties of foundation elements raft – 850mm, pile diameter – 750 mm & pile depth – 15m, all dimensions are as per design requirements. The soil plan area, was fixed such that, horizontal dimension should be at least five times the horizontal dimension of building and depth of soil should be at least three times depth of foundation, Therefore, soil volume modeled is 60x60x45m.
The present work emphasizes the importance of soil structure interaction in the analysis. The construction of high-rise building, medium height buildings are usually using the pile and raft foundations to support the structure under the soft grounds and reclaimed land. The study of soil structure Interaction is one of the beneficial effects on the seismic response of the building. It decreases the frequency of the building , and also it increases the flexibility of the building, story drift and
