Shear wall has high in-plane stiffness and strength which can be used simultaneously resist lateral loadsand gravity loads. Bracing is a highly efficient and economical method of resisting lateral forces in a frame structurebecause the diagonals work in axial stress and therefore call for minimum member sizes in providing the stiffness andstrength against horizontal shear. In this paper, Special moments resisting frame(SMRF), SMRF with Shear wall atcorners of building and SMRF with four bracing systems have been investigated for the use in high rise building in orderto provide lateral stiffness and finally comparing the roof displacements, story drifts and cost. For this purpose, 10 and15 story building is selected for in Earthquake zone III and comparison id done. The analysis and design was done withthe help of ETABs software. It is observed that the shear wall model have many a dvantages over the other two systemsand the cost required is also less.
