A staggered Truss System (STS) is a prospective steel structure system for high-rise buildings and a steel staggered truss framing system is one of the effective design techniques to improve the efficiency in building construction. Besides, cost reductions arise from a reduction in steel tonnage. The purpose of this study is to carry out a comparative analysis of staggered truss systems with and without a shear wall for 8, 9, and 10-storey buildings using the ETAB software. In this analysis, time histories are used. For the analysis, these structures are modeled in ETABS software and various displacement data are achieved for different types of structures. After analysis of the models, some outcomes were observed and it was concluded that the staggered truss system with the shear wall has lower displacement values compare to the staggered truss system in the x and y-direction. In the y-direction, displacement was 64% to 85% less and in the x-direction, it was 3% to 62% less than the conventional staggered truss system. So, after analyzing the data it was concluded that a staggered truss system with the shear wall is more efficient than the staggered truss system.
