Economic Seismic Performance of Buildings with Peer Methodology and Fema P-58

The performance-based seismic design pretends to take care of the lives of the occupants and reduce the cost of damage caused by earthquakes. Several ways of estimating damage and economic losses have been developed, but most of them lack objectivity and have great dispersion in the results. In the...

description The performance-based seismic design pretends to take care of the lives of the occupants and reduce the cost of damage caused by earthquakes. Several ways of estimating damage and economic losses have been developed, but most of them lack objectivity and have great dispersion in the results. In the last decade, the advancement of technology has allowed the appearance of new methodologies, such as the one developed by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER methodology). However, the information regarding application and scope is scarce. In the present investigation, the economic seismic performance for a steel building was determined by applying the PEER methodology with different levels of seismic intensity. A multi-family residential model of special moment frames (SMF) was used, and the structure was designed by means of modal analysis. Spectral, incremental dynamic non-linear analysis was performed where the structural response was determined, with the help of the PACT software. The seismic performance, expressed as the repair costs, repair times, deaths, and injuries, was defined. The results obtained indicate that buildings designed with traditional structural standards can be demolished after the action of an earthquake because the repair costs exceed 40% of the replacement cost. Rare and very rare seismic events can cause the total suspension of the service and a considerable number of deaths and injuries.
