There has been a considerable increase in the construction of tall buildings both residential and commercial and the modern trend is towards more tall and slender structures. Thus, the effects of lateral loads like wind loads, earthquake loads and blast forces are attaining increasing importance. Shear wall system is one of the most commonly used lateral load resisting system in high rise buildings. Shear wall has high in plane stiffness and strength which can be used to simultaneously resist large horizontal loads and support gravity loads, which significantly reduces lateral sway of the building and thereby reduces damage to structure and its contents. When shear walls are situated in advantageous positions in the building, they can form an efficient lateral force resisting system by reducing lateral displacements under earthquake loads. Therefore, it is very necessary to determine effective, efficient and ideal location of shear wall.
