Abstract

This work presents a typical 6-storey reinforced concrete building frame analyzed and designed for four load cases considering the three revisions of IS:1893 and IS:456. A conceptual frame work and detailed procedure for performance evaluation of reinforced concrete framed buildings are presented against the explicit force based method described in Indian codes of practice. Modelling issues related to generation of capacity curve, the damage and vulnerability indices are discussed. Based on the studies simple expressions are suggested to estimate, the global damage indices in the hardening and elasto-plastic regions of the capacity spectra.
