Structures are classified as rigid and flexible. Tall structures are more flexible and susceptible to vibrations by wind induced forces. In the analysis and design of high-rise structures estimation of wind loads and the inter storey drifts are the two main criteria to be positively ascertained for the safe and comfortable living of the inhabitants. Estimation of wind loads is more precise with gust factor method. Inter storey drift can be controlled through suitable structural system. The present investigation deals with the calculation of wind loads using static and gust factor method for a sixteen storey high rise building and results are compared with respect to drift. Structure is analyzed in STAAD Pro, with wind loads calculated by gust factor method as per IS 875-Part III with and without X- bracings at all the four corners from bottom to top.
