Abstract
According to the Cuban earthquake standard NC 46:1999, the ERAD method was applied to study variants of 2- to 5-story reinforced masonry houses to be built on solid ground S2 in southeastern Cuba. The modeling was carried out with finite elements (shells) using the SAP 2000NL v19 program. The seismic load is obtained through the equivalent static method and response spectrum method. The evaluation of selected global and local control parameters is carried out by comparing their results, changing the number of floors or floor coverings and roof waterproofing, and comparing variants with different seismic hazard levels. The evaluation confirmed the conceptual design, simplified the structural design of the resulting variants, and distinguished the level of structural behavior.
