In India, construction plays a very important role with the introduction of high-rise structures that has been increasing gradually. Along with this, the structure should be strong enough that each element should be economic and strong. The Reduction of Axial forces in Columns in Multistory building using Optimum size change approach is a new idea. It reduces the size of columns at the different levels of the building to reduce its self-weight. On other hand, the structural weight should be minimized when the self-weight of the same will be reduced and proved to be an economic structure. Concluding this, it is necessary to prepare various software models to analyze the structure and get the results regarding reduction of axial forces without disturbing the strength and durability of structure.
