Abstract

Seismic performance factors are important parts of performance-based seismic design, and values of seismic performance factors are directly related to structural safety and economy. Six typical RC structures in high intensity region are designed according to the current Chinese Codes, and finite element models are built on OpenSees platform. The objectivity and accuracy of modeling methods are verified by existing experimental results. Values and rules of seismic performance factors are revealed by adaptive pushover analysis (APOA) and incremental dynamic analysis (IDA). Through comparison with values of design codes, values of the system overstrength factor, the ductility reduction factor, the response modification factor and the deflection amplification factor in this paper is reasonable, and this study provides theoretical reference for Chinese Codes. Analytical methods have important effect on seismic performance factors. Comparing with the IDA method, the APOA method underestimates seismic performance factors. Structural height has significant influence on seismic performance factors. Overstrength factor increases with increase of structural height but ductility reduction factor, response modification factor and deflection amplification factor decrease. Infilled walls increase seismic performance factors of RC frame with infilled walls. The effect of infilled walls on seismic performance factors decreases gradually with increase of structural height.
