due to the imperfections and lack of rectitude, the gravity load can cause sway in slender columns in a multi- storey framed building.

Dr.T.Muralidhara Rao

If the frame is geometrically symmetric and the gravity loads are also symmetrically placed then there won't be any sway in the columns of multi storied building frames.
