Reinforced concrete structural walls with coupling beams are widely used as the primary lateral load bearing elements in high rise buildings. This paper describe a study deals with effect of depth variation of coupling beam at different story intervals Many researchers shown that there is uncertainty in the estimation of the effective stiffness of RC coupling beams. So here the analysis of high rise building with different story height namely 15 stories & 25 stories with symmetry is considered with the effect of span / depth ratio 1,3,5,&6 and aspect ratio of high of building to width of building 4.6,7.65,& 10.7 effect on coupling beam. The analysis will be carried out by preparing different models in ETABS 2016 software in this study. Medium soil is considered in this study. The behavior of coupled shear wall is mainly due to coupling beam.
