Abstract

Structural systems that do not use a beam as the main component were first developed by Turner in 1906. This structural system is better known as a flat slab. The flat slab structure is supported by column heads and drop panels, or without drop panels, or without column heads. Several building codes such as IS 456: 2000, ACI 318-08, ACI 318-19, EC 2:2004, and NZS 3101 (Part 1):2006 provide guidance for designing flat slab systems under gravity loads only. However, many flat slab buildings are also built in areas with high earthquakes which can cause the collapse of buildings due to earthquake loads. In this paper the 10-level flat slab building structure design results are analyzed using nonlinear time history response analysis with the help of OpenSees Navigator software using several earthquake records, namely Kobe (Japan, 1995), Imperial Valley (California, 1979) and Tabas (Iran, 1978) which has been adjusted to the design spectra of the city of Yogyakarta. From the results of the analysis using OpenSees Navigator, it was found that the story drift that occurred was still within the limits required in the regulations, so that the building being reviewed was still within the limits of life safety design.
