Abstract— In present days, the tall buildings which are constructed with RCC, steel, and composite materials. Based on the density of materials one can say that the earthquake response of the steel building will be more and the earthquake response of RCC building will be less. The earthquake response of composite material lies in between steel and RCC. Commonly used materials for the construction are RCC and steel. Composite materials are very rarely used for the construction of building. So, present work gives importance on optimization of earthquake response of tall irregular buildings like L, C & H shapes. It can be done by developing different framing systems (RCC, composite, steel) over the height (combined model). In this study, the comparison has been done between combined models and composite models of different shapes. Key words: Time Period and Frequency, Displacement, Story Drift Ratio, Story Shear I. INTRODUCTION In developed civilization, there are different types of buildings which are stable against earthquake with different techniques, different material &different shapes. In this project, earthquake responses of tall structure with different shapes which are irregular in horizontal plane are studied. There are many different types of irregular buildings that are constructed, but in this project horizontal irregular building with shapes like L,C & H are studied. These structures are either built with steel, Reinforced Concrete or composite materials. A. Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) Concrete structure is defined as the overall building of structure frames, sections are made up of concrete material. Reinforcement arrangements are usually designed to resist tensile stresses in some regions of concrete that may cause unacceptable structural failure & cracking. Advanced RCC, it contains materials are made of steel, polymers or substitute composite materials in joining with rebar. RCC may also be stressed permanently, so as to improve the behavior last structure working under the loads. In USA, the strategies are called as post & pre-tensioning. For ductile, strong &durable construction, development the reinforcement necessary for the accompanying properties like  Relatively higher strength  Higher tensile strain  Great bond to the concrete, irrespective of pH, moisture& similar factors  Thermal compatibility, not causing unacceptable stresses in temperature changing.  Strength in the concrete environment, managed stress& irrespective of corrosion.

B. Steel Structure A structure which is worked by utilizing metal is called steel structure. Steel structures are used for a numerous reasons including living accommodation, work places &storages. They are arranged into specific types depending on their uses. A steel structure at first popularity is gained in the mid-20th century. Their uses turned out to become more during 2nd World War &basically extended later the war when steel become more available& due to cost efficiency steel structures are widely accepted. The application range has expanded with improved products materials & design compatibilities of PC supported configuration programming like design software. C. Composite Building It is a nonspecific term to describe building development including different materials. Construction of composite is regularly utilized as a part of building, aircraft, watercraft, and building& bridge structure development. There are many reasons to utilize composite materials including environment sustainability, aesthetics, and increased strength. In civil engineering, a composite structure exists when two materials are bound together that they act together as a single unit from of structural point of view. When this happens, it is called composite activity. One normal case includes concrete floor slab supported by steel beams. If the slab is not connected to the beam, then the slab transfers its entire load to the beam and the slab contributes the load conveying ability of the of the beam. In any case, the beam is connected to the slab with studs and then the section of the slab can be assumed to the beam act as positively. As a result, this composite makes a stronger& larger beam than would be provided by the steel beam. The basic designer may compute a changed area as one stage in analyzing the load carry ability of the composite beam. D. Objectives Following are the objectives 1) Analyzing the tall irregular composite structures i.e., by pushover analysis method to study the earthquake response of the structure. 2) Analyzing the tall irregular combined structures i.e., by pushover analysis method to study the earthquake response of the structure. 3) Irregular shaped buildings with different materials are studied and comparison is made to find out which structure is more stable against earthquake. II. METHODOLOGY 1) In this study, six models of irregular shapes like L, C & H are modelled in ETabs 9.7.1. In that three models
