THE EFFECT OF END SHEAR WALLS ON REINFORCEDCONCRETE TALL BUILDINGS BEHAVIOR WITHIRREGULARITY IN HEIGHT

According to architectural and economic requirements, tall buildings are designed in differentforms. On the other hand, the non-uniform, irregular, and complex forms cause some challenges instructural designs, especially in lateral load resistance systems. In this regard, the end shear wall wasutilized for the lateral load system. The end shear wall connected the end of two end shear walls in allstories. In addition, two reinforced concrete ۳۰-story buildings with and without end shear walls weremodeled considering irregularity in height. The results indicated that the first period's maximumdisplacement declined by ۵۸% and ۵۲% by end shear walls, respectively. Based on the results, the endshear walls significantly improved the reinforced concrete tall buildings
