Drifts, torsion, and structure period are essential parameters affecting high-rise building behavior. In addition, the stress concentration at the end wing of shear walls is another critical subject in high-rise buildings, which was resolved using end shear walls. The end shear wall connects the end of two shear walls in high-rise buildings without opening. In this study, a new end shear wall connects the end of shear walls in a high-rise building with regular openings (ESWO). Therefore, two 30-story RC buildings with and without end shear walls with opening were modeled by a nonlinear time history analysis under seismic load. The drift was decreased by 49% in a 30-story building with a new end shear wall. Moreover, the residual displacement of 30-story buildings with end shear walls with opening was decreased by 67%.. The time history nonlinear analysis investigation indicated that the end shear walls with opening declined the maximum displacement by 62% in tall buildings by Open Sees software. The reduction of the standard deviation of data increased the confinement in 30-story drifts in the X and Y directions by end shear walls with opening. Based on the results, the performance of the end shear walls with the opening was appropriate in the seismic behavior of high-rise buildings.}, keywords = {Reinforced Concrete,Seismic Behavior,Nonlinear Time History Analysis,End shear wall,Tall buildings}, url = {http://www.jsee.ir/article_701310.html}, eprint = {http://www.jsee.ir/article_701310_15f15f1e740035a1e817a42f1cb6673f.pdf} }
