An equation to estimate the torsional acceleration of a tall building under wind load was derived and proposed by G.L Greig in 1980. However, the accuracy of the equation was to be determined. The Orchard Turn Tower was modelled in ETABS to obtain the mode shapes and the corresponding frequencies. F...
