Irregular and unsymmetrical buildings are the modern trend for architectural and structural engineers, and this type of structure is always taken special care to design. This study focuses on the comparison between two setback buildings. Pressure, force, and torsional moment coefficients are highlighted in this study. The suction at the roof top of single-side setback is 95.84% higher than the both-side setback model. Torsional moment of both-side setback model is 259.02% higher than the single-side setback model. This study says that the both-side setback model is more susceptible than the single-side setback model.

Keywords: setback model; side setback; setback; single side
