In the early structures at the beginning of the 20th century, structural members were assumed to carry
primarily the gravity loads. Today, however, by the advances in structural design and high-strength materials, building
weight is reduced, and slenderness is increased, which necessitates taking into consideration mainly the lateral loads
such as wind and earthquake. Understandably, especially for the tall buildings, as the slenderness, and so the flexibility
increases, buildings suffer from the lateral loads resulting from wind and earthquake more and more. As a general rule,
when other things being equal, the taller the building, the more necessary it is to identify the proper structural system for
resisting the lateral loads. The objective of this papers to study, the performance of structural system in high-rise
building subjected to seismic and wind load. Study of the literature is reviewed in this paper on various aspects of
structural system as; behaviour of high- rise structure was assessed by overall building drift, story drift, displacement,
base shear.
