How to use System.Web in .Net Core

Why do you want to do this? Is this related to your other questions about WebMethods and WebServices in .NET Core?

no, its for checking the following 

if (System.Web.HttpContext.Current != null &&
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User != null
&& System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity != null &&
String.IsNullOrEmpty(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name) == false)
{

LBCTIntranetUser user = this.GetUser(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name);

if (user != null)
{
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name, true);
HttpContext.Current.Session.Remove(UserIdKeyName);
HttpContext.Current.Session.Add(UserIdKeyName, user);
}
}

You can't use System.Web in .NET Core to access HttpContext. While it may be technically possible to add a reference to System.Web in a .NET Core application, the HttpContext that it provides is never populated. Also, the FormsAuthentication system will not work in .NET Core for the same reason.
