There are many new technologies arriving in the field of construction, one of those is prefabricated buildings which means the components or structural members of the building are cast in the factory and then fixed in the site. Although the technology developed many years back, in India, the implementation is improving in these days only. It is important to study the prefabricated building performance under seismic loading because the behavior of prefabricated concrete building is entirely different from the normal building. So, in the present investigation, a G+7 storey prefabricated building was taken into consideration to check the behavior and performance. The modeling of the building was done using TEKLA software and then it is analyzed using ETABS for the response spectrum analysis.
