This document provides instructions for performing an earthquake analysis on a structure using the pseudo-static method in STAAD v8i. The steps include: 1. Defining the seismic parameters by adding a seismic definition and inputting values for the zone, response factor, importance factor, etc. based on IS 1893:2002. 2. Creating earthquake load cases in the X and Z directions and combining them with dead and live loads. 3. Assigning pin supports and obtaining support reactions for analysis. 4. Importing the support reaction values into Excel to create weight tables that are then input back into STAAD. 5. Removing the pin supports and assigning fixed supports at the foundation before running the full analysis
