This study aims to analyze the seismic performance of shear wall building to ground motion. Shear wall has a
high stiffness and strength which can be used to simultaneously resist large lateral forces.This work summarizes the results
of analysis on different models of building and comparing the results obtained. The scope of the present work is to
understand the behaviorof the high rise building for various positions of shear walls and to study the effectiveness of shear
wall. Modeling of the structure and the performance of the reinforced concrete shear wall building has been studied with the
help of SAP2000. Different models of building are made like bare frame and shear wall frame structure are considered in
SAP 2000 and change in the performance of building with respect to story drifts, base shear and top-story deflection of the
building for different position of shear wall in the building is observed and compared and presented in this paper
