the purpose of this study is to consider the effect of foundation flexibility on the seismic response of reinforced concrete shear walls designed according to displacement based design. For this purpose four shear walls with different heights 4,8,12 and 16 floors have been considered and designed based on the displacement based seismic desing method.
