Damage Prediction of Three Types of Buildings Based on Dynamic Analysis, Optimum Seismic Protection for New Building Construction in Eastern Metropolitan Areas

摘要

This report summarizes some of the results obtained from the analysis of three different types of buildings: 13-story steel frame (pilot building); 11-story concrete moment resisting frame; and 17-story concrete shear wall building. Details about the design data, the underlying assumptions of the analysis and the computer program used can be found in earlier reports. This report covers a general discussion of the results obtained and predictions of the damage states of these buildings from the various intensities of the earthquake motion used. Interstory displacement data is given in tabular form. Observations on the performance of different design types are made.
