Abstract

This research thoroughly analyses how different lateral force resistance systems work in 20, 40,
and 60-story buildings. Diagrids, outriggers, shear walls, and moment resisting frames are some of the
designs that have been studied. The main goal is to test and compare how these systems work and how well
they can handle earthquakes at different building heights. Building models are designed and studied under
different earthquake condition using ETABS. The success of the systems at different heights is found by
looking at structural factors like storey drift, storey displacement and base shear. The results of this study
give us important information about how to choose the best horizontal force resistance systems based on
the height of the building. The comparison study can help engineers and designers pick the best method for
a project by giving them more information. This study aims to learn more about how tall buildings behave
to lateral forces and to encourage the creation of stronger and more efficient building designs in areas prone
to earthquakes.
