Sumario:Production of W and Z bosons in pp collisions at LHC has been extensively studied by ATLAS and CMS Collaborations during the Run-1 period. Both Collaborations produced nearly 60 publications dealing with W/Z Physics in total. Wide range of topics is covered: production cross section of inclusive W and Z decaying into e, μ, τ and b channels, differential Drell-Yan cross section, differential cross section of W and Z as a function of boson transverse momentum, Φ∗ and rapidity, production of W and Z in association with jets, production of W and Z in association with c and b quark, ratio of the W and Z cross sections in association with jets, forwardbackward asymmetry of Drell-Yan lepton pairs, lepton charge asymmetry in inclusive W production, weak mixing angle with the Drell-yan process, angular distributions in the decay of W and Z, electroweak production of dijets in association with a Z boson and others. Representative collection of the aforementioned results is provided and plans for the Run-2 period are summarised.
