In the seismic design of buildings, shear wall act as a major earthquake resisting members. It offers great potential for lateral load resistance. The properties of these seismic shear walls give the response of the buildings, and therefore, it is essential to evaluate the seismic response of the walls appropriately. In this present study, the main aim is to determine the solution for shear wall location in multi-storey building. Effect of shear wall has been studied with the help of two different models. We have design it for zone four and Model for with and without shear wall. An earthquake load is applied to a building of G+13 stories. Parameters like Lateral joint displacement and joint drift required for each floor are calculated in both cases of shear wall.The analysis of this parameter is carried out by using ETABS software.
