hi

for building, high rise which is not expose to earthquakes/seismic condition and only wind load is taken into consideration..

do we still need to check whether the centre mass and centre rigidity coincide?

i am not be able to find a code regarding this..

because as far as i know.. no need to check if no seismic condition as long as the building pass the storey drift and sway check

please correct me if i am wrong..

many thanks..
