Pushover analysis technique is a key tool for the performance-based seismic design that has been largely adopted in new generation of codes. Therefore, more precise and reliable performance predictions are highly demanded. Improved upper-bound (IUB) pushover one advanced nonlinear static procedures (NSPs) recently developed. This procedure adequately estimates response regular tall buildings. I...

This paper aims to guide structural engineers on how apply the rapid nonlinear time history analysis (RNLTHA) procedure effectively predict seismic demand, taking into account ductility and overstrength, effects of dynamic phenomena including cyclic degradation strength stiffness in structures, a direct expedient manner. The shortcoming conventional force-based approach design involving use for...

Pushover analysis is an efficient method for the seismic evaluation of buildings under severe earthquakes. This paper aims to develop and verify pushover methodology reinforced concrete frames. technique depends on a nonlinear representation structure by using SAP2000 software. The properties plastic hinges will be defined generating moment-curvature all frame sections (beams columns). verifica...

This paper presents a new methodology for the displacement-based seismic design of symmetric single-storey wood-frame buildings. Previous displacement-based design efforts were based on the direct displacement-based design approach, which uses a substitute linear system with an appropriate stiffness and viscous damping combination. Despite the fact that this method has shown to produce promisin...

This paper presents first a valid, fully non-linear 2-D numerical model that can capture realistically the in-plane hysteretic behaviour of reinforced concrete (R/C) frames with masonry infills when they are subjected to combined vertical and cyclic horizontal loads in order to predict their post-elastic earthquake bahaviour. The effectiveness of this simulation was validated by comparing the n...

Seismic assessment is a paramount issue and valuable instrument towards the conservation of vulnerable structures in seismic prone regions. The past events have highlighted vulnerability masonry towers that exhibited by severe structural nonstructural damages or even collapses. preservation existing structures, mainly focused on built heritage, emerging imposing substantial enhancements numeric...
