And increase the usage of the AAC block as infill material in the infill wall for the high-rise building. traditionally, because masonry is a non-structural element, its impact on the building under seismic load has often been ignored, but some studies have found that infill wall panels affect the structure under seismic load. In an earthquake. In the research paper research about the various parameters that were studied were base shear, story displacement, story drifts, frequency, and time period.

1. INTRODUCTION In contemporary architecture and construction practices, the role of infill walls has evolved beyond mere structural support to become a critical component influencing the overall performance, sustainability, and energy efficiency of buildings. As the global construction industry seeks innovative solutions to address the challenges of environmental impact and energy consumption, there is a growing interest in exploring alternative materials and technologies for infill wall systems.

1.1 Objective of infill wall The objective of an infill wall in construction can vary based on the specific context and requirements of a building or structure. Infill walls are non-load-bearing walls that are constructed between structural elements such as columns or beams. Here are some common objectives of infill walls:
Traditionally relegated to the spaces between structural elements, infill walls are now recognized as integral contributors to a building's overall structural stability and energy efficiency. The choice of materials and design considerations for infill walls can significantly impact a structure's load-bearing capacity, thermal insulation, and environmental sustainability. In this context, the infusion of ion-based materials presents a novel approach, drawing inspiration from the unique properties of ions to potentially enhance both the structural and thermal attributes of infill walls. The integration of ions in construction materials has gained attention for its potential to influence various material properties, including strength, thermal conductivity, and environmental sustainability. By harnessing the principles of ion interaction, this research seeks to explore the feasibility and benefits of incorporating ion-infused materials in infill

1.
Space Division: Infill walls are often used to divide the internal space of a building into different rooms or areas. They provide a means to create separate rooms for various functions without affecting the overall structural integrity of the building.
2.
Thermal Insulation: Infill walls can contribute to the thermal performance of a building by providing insulation. Insulation in infill walls helps in maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature and reducing energy consumption for heating or cooling.
