For this purpose, eight stories buildings with/without shear wall are modeled and analyzed. The performance levels of model buildings are determined by using nonlinear method. The ratios of shear walls total area to building area were investigated for different column dimensions and shear wall configuration. Capacity curves of the model buildings and shear force and moment graphics of shear walls are obtained. The obtained results are given in figures and tables comparatively. </span> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> </span> </b>  </p> <p> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Sakarya University}
