Abstract: A rehabilitation plan is presented for a two-story industrial steel structure in Iran. The building was found to have unsatisfactory performance: The first-floor two-way composite slab was prone to uncontrollable vibrations ...

Abstract: Current force-based codes for the seismic design of structures use design spectra and system-specific behavior factors to satisfy one or two predefined structural limit states . In contrast, performance-based seismic design ...
