This literature review is an analysis of some of the factors that affect the seismic performance of tall buildings. The increasing number of high-rise buildings globally, especially in seismically active regions, necessitates a better understanding of their seismic performance. This study focuses on the structural response of tall buildings under seismic loading and analyses various design strategies to improve stability and integrity [1]. The study examines different structural systems, including frame and box structures, and evaluates the effect of basement structures on lateral displacement and stiffness. Structural dynamic analysis and finite element modelling through software such as Abaqus are investigated with the aim of predicting and optimising the seismic performance of high-rise buildings. Comparative analyses of material properties and structural configurations were carried out to identify effective design solutions. It is expected that the results of the study will contribute to the development of better seismic strategies to ensure the safety and seismic capacity of tall buildings in earthquake prone areas.
