Reliability-Based Seismic Performance Evaluation of RC Columns

초록

In the Reliability-Based Seismic Design, an adequate method of the structural performance evaluation should be capable of representing various types of structural local and global damages. This study focuses on the quantification of the uncertainties in estimating the column capacities, the concepts, and procedures for evaluating damage indices for reinforced concrete columns with a view to assessing their seismic performance level as specified in FEMA 350 Documentation. That produces a structural performance index that is believed to be more indicative of structural damage.
