This paper aims at studying description of different plan irregularities by analytical method during seismic events. In all the studied systems from which dual system is chosen for analysis and studying its effects on different irregularities in which analysis is based on the variation of displacements, with respect to structural systems. Analyses have been done to estimate the seismic performance of high rise buildings and the effects of structural irregularities in stiffness, strength, mass and combination of these factors are to be going to be considered. The work describes to the irregular plan geometric forms that are repeated more in the metro city areas such as Mumbai like T-section and Oval Shape plan geometry. These irregular plans were modelled in ETABS 9.7v considering 35 and 39 storied buildings, to determine the effect of the plan geometric form on the seismic behaviour of structures with elastic analyses. Also, effects of the gust factor are considering in T-shape and Oval Shape plans. Although these affects mainly on the architectural plan configuration, plan irregularity find better structural system solution such as dual system has been use for structural analysis. In structural configuration shear wall positions located are located in the form of core and columns are considered as gravity as well as lateral columns. Two types of models are going to be developed namely strength & serviceability models. In strength model all the lateral systems (i.e. shear walls and coupling beams) are to be analyzed.
