3. Introduction
• A multistory building which having height
between 50 m to 250 m are known as Tall
Buildings. (described in IS 16700)
• Tall building are classifies into two categories as
per CTBUH (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban
Habitat):
• Super tall Buildings
• Mega tall Building
• In IS 16700 super tall building analysis and
design described. No any recommendation for
mega tall structures.

4. Demand of High rise Buildings
• Scarcity of land in urban areas.
•Increasing demand for business and residential space.
•Economic growth
•Technological advancements
•Innovations in structural systems
•Concept of city skyline
•Desire for aesthetics in urban setting

5. Objectives of the study
• To study the response of different shapes tall building.
• To study the wind pressure and seismic load in the different geometrical
shaped tall buildings.
• To compare the lateral forces induces on the different shapes building.
• To evaluate the combine effect of the earthquake and wind forces on the
different shape tall buildings with the different structural systems.
• To suggest particular plan geometry to design tall structures with heights
criteria.
• To give suggestions to IS 16700 and IS 1893 for better design practices for
dynamic and non linear analysis of tall buildings.

In the drifts on y direction it is observed that
the triangular building not giving the stability
as we move toward the terrace floor the drift
values also increases.
so from this result we can say that circular
building gives minimum drifts as this building
not have re-entrant corners where the seismic
excitationn is more.
