A presentation on Evaluation of Seismic Capacity and Expected Damage of Idealized RC Buildings in Bangladesh Part 2

The study aims at determining seismic capacity using 1st and 2nd level seismic evaluation procedure and proposing a simple procedure to estimate the damage level of RC frames designed according to BNBC code. The design of the models and their characteristics are shown previously in Part 1. For determining damage index, nonlinear static pushover analysis has been performed on the studied frames using seismic demand curve from BNBC response spectrum.
