Seismic Capacity of a Reinforced Concrete Structure without Seismic Detailing and Implication to the Seismic Design in the Region of Moderate Seismicity

비내진상세 철근콘크리트 구조물의 내진성능 및 중약진지역 내진설계에의 적용

A four-story reinforced concrete frame building model is designed for the gravity loads. only Static nonlinear pushover analyses are performed in two orthogonal horizontal directions. The overall capacity curves are converted into ADRS spectra and compared with demand spectra. At several points the deformed shape moment and shear distribution are calculated. It is observed that the seismic capacity may not meet the design requirements in soft soil condition and may collapse in MCE. It is concluded that limited but adequate amount of ductility need be provided in the seismic design in low to moderate seismicity regions.
