Abstract: Shear walls are a fundamental component in the structural design of high-rise buildings, playing a critical role in enhancing seismic resilience. This study investigates the effectiveness of shear walls by analyzing various positional applications within a building's framework using the structural design software program ETABS. The primary focus of the study was on the optimal placement of shear walls to maximize their impact on structural integrity, particularly in improving the seismic performance of central columns. By exploring different configurations, this study aims to identify the most effective shear wall orientation that minimizes seismic forces and reduces structural deformations. The findings underscore the importance of the shear wall's locations in resisting lateral loads, thereby contributing to safer and more resilient high-rise structures in seismic-prone regions.
