  • Risk-based seismic design of buildings using an efficient pushover analysis procedure [Elektronski vir]
    Lazar, Nuša, gradbenica ; Dolšek, Matjaž
    Present-generation procedures for earthquake-resistant design of buildings do not involve seismic risk assessment methodologies. Therefore the collapse risk of new buildings may not be acceptable for ... all stakeholders. This issue can be solved by adequate estimation of seismic risk in the design process of a building. By comparing the estimated risk with an acceptable risk it can eventually be decided whether or not the newly designed structure met all safety requirements. In this paper a procedure for risk-based design is summarized and demonstrated by means of an example of a 15-storey building. The procedure is iterative and involves envelopebased pushover analysis procedure, which was recently proposed and is capable of approximately simulating the effects of different system failure modes, whereas the collapse risk is assessed with consideration of appropriate integration limits. It is shown that the integration limits of the risk equation can affect final design.
