Abstract
This paper reports on the structural system of a high-rise building with rectangular plan and the structural design of a 24-story apartment building. The structual system consists of rigid frames and "I" and "H" shaped multi-story shear walls. The "I" shaped shear walls with boundary girders resist against seismic force in the span direction. The "H" shaped shear walls which webs work, and two rigid frames are placed in the longitudinal direction. Loading tests of shear wall models and the dynamic analysis of the building were carried out to study the characteristics of the structural system. It was confirmed that the deformation and energy absorption were evenly distributed in all stories using the structural system in design.
