This study evaluates the performance of the perforated stiffened steel plate shear wall system, a modern global system that is effective in high-rise buildings and provides economic benefits compared to previous systems. Steel plate shear walls are an important structural element in the design of buildings. They are used to provide lateral stability and resist seismic and wind forces. The study also examines the performance of steel buildings with unstiffened and stiffened steel plate shear walls, using diagonal, horizontal, vertical, and combination of horizontal and vertical stiffeners. The building studied is a steel moment resisting frame (G+20 and G+30) designed for gravity and seismic loading, using the Indian seismic code 1893:2016. The study uses response spectrum analysis and the ETABS 20 structural analysis software to evaluate storey drifts, base shear of the structure, top storey displacement, and storey stiffness. The results are obtained to evaluate the performance of the structures.
