In Design of high-rise structures, Wind is considered as one of the important horizontal forces that have significant impact on the response of building. Due to rise in population, the demand for tall buildings is increasing day by day. Wind Load on such structures are calculated using pressure coefficients and force coefficients which are available in various international codes and standards. However, these international codes and standards give information about regular shape buildings such as square, rectangle, circular or octagonal.With the technological advancement, composite plan shape buildings such as square and circular, circular and hexagonal and square and octagonal etc. have been considered by many architects keeping in view of aesthetics of Building. The wind flow around a tall building with composite plan shapes having different height ratio variation differs from what we get in regular shape analysis. Since, data is not available regarding such buildings, the need to carry wind tunnel testing or CFD become important for analyzing wind effect on such buildings. CFD (Computation Fluid Dynamics) for determining wind responses is becoming immensely popular.
