The demand for earthquake-resistant buildings has increased due to recent earthquakes, leading to revised codal provisions and increased emphasis on earthquake-resistant structures. Shear walls are structural vertical members that can resist lateral, momentary, and axial loads. Ferro concrete walls, including raised wells, are standard for multi-structure buildings. Shear walls are structurally economical solutions for lateral load resistance, making them popular in high-rise buildings. However, the choice of shear wall placement in multi-story buildings is not well-researched, and the project aims to determine the strength of RC shear walls in high-rise buildings through dynamical shear wall location.
