Abstract: According to recent statistics, India is recognized as one of the most densely populated nations in the world. Due to this density, a severe shortage of land is being faced across urban areas. As a response to this issue, high-rise structures with broad coverage are being preferred by urban planners. To maximize space efficiency, aesthetically attractive buildings are being designed by engineers in increasing numbers. Although these designs are widely favoured by clients, post-tensioning methods are rarely implemented during construction. The benefits of this technique, such as reduced material consumption and enhanced structural integrity, are being largely overlooked in modern high-rise developments. The main challenge is to maintain the stability of architectural buildings when structural instability arises due to their visually attractive designs. In this study, various papers related to the topic have been thoroughly reviewed and critically analysed, revealing that extensive research has already been conducted in this field but not in multi-storeyed buildings. To enhance the stability of these buildings, a comprehensive literature review was carried out. As a result of these findings, clear and focused conclusions were drawn which forms the research objectives of our further technical study.
