Abstract
There is an increasing trend in the construction field to build structures that are asymmetric both horizontally and vertically due to the need for unique aesthetic appearance. Also, the increase in population forces people to build structures in densely populated cities leading to scarcity of land for construction. Many other circumstances pave the way for structures to be irregular in nature. These structures have to be made seismically resistant in order to avoid loss of life and property. Shear walls are one among the solutions to conditions that don't satisfy seismic resistance. They have high stiffness which counteracts the lateral loads of the building due to earthquake forces. This study aims at providing insight to major findings about the behavior of asymmetric structures with different locations of shear walls in terms of seismic response parameters.
