It is observed that there are different-different types of high-rise buildings in the world with different shape and sizes. These buildings are mainly designed for seismic and wind load. Therefore it is required to take new ideas of construction and research on that so that the chances of wind and seismic failure can be reduced. After reviewing various papers it is necessary to analyze different shapes of twin towers in multistoried building under seismic zone as per Indian standards.

Keywords: twin tower, different shapes, earthquake zone, seismic loading
