Shear walls are widely used to resist lateral load such as wind and earthquake and to limit interstory drifts
in multistory reinforced concrete buildings. Configurations of sher walls at floor plan are generally developed
due to architectural design. That configuration and shear areas of shear walls play a significant role in
earthquake behavior of them. In this study, the effects of configurating symmetric shear walls with rectangular
sections on interior or exterior axes to earthquake behavior of shear wall-frame buildings are investigated. Two
eight-story reinforced concrete shear wall-frame buildings having the same floor plan are designed according to
Turkish Seismic Code. Shear walls are configurated on interior axes of the first building and on exterior axes of
the second building.Base shear forces, sustained by shear walls, interstory drifts and furthermore torsional
irregularity factors for 5% additional eccentricity are calculated by linear elastic analysis of both buildings. The
comparison of these values and related suggestions are made for two different configurations.
