I can design lateral moment resisting building by using Etabs.
But I don't know completely how to calculate by hand.
I think I should know it.
So any body can upooad such book ?

I understood "design a building with (special) lateral moment-resisting frames". Am I right?

Before doing it using Etabs or any other software, yes, you HAVE to know how to do it by hand first.

As you didn´t specify any book, I´m suggesting the following document as your primer for RC Special Moment Frames. While it doesn´t have a numerical example, it does include an in-depth useful background:
