The responses of the asymmetric building change under external load depending upon various factors. Most of high-rise building structures are analyzed without considering infill walls. Generally, infill wall structures are analyzed without considering tensile forces or dynamic loading. As per the literature review, analysis of partial open frame plan asymmetric structures and the effect of locations of openings in different floor levels is very rare. In such a scenario, a specific size of the opening is considered at different floor levels of a ten-storied plan asymmetric building to compare the responses. In this case, the structure is considered on different supports such as hard soil, medium soil, soft soil, and fixed support under wind load and ground motions. Maximum base shear has been found in the direction of the ground motion when the building foundation is on hard soil. The partial open wall structure is not suitable for the seismic prone zone. However, a suitable location of opening mitigates structural responses under wind load to some extent.
