| description | Penang Island experienced several series of tremors from the Sumatera Earthquake and South Sumatra Earthquake in November 2002 and July 2004, respectively. Due to these incidents, there are doubt about the integrity of the existing buildings in Malaysia that were designed without considering seismic load. This study is carried out with the aim to evaluate the effect of incorporating seismic load towards the material required for the main frame members and the total cost of materials. Reinforced concrete building models with 35-storey, 40-storey and 45-storey were analysed and designed using ETABs V18 software packages. Reflecting the low seismic zone in Malaysia, the ductility class low (DCL) was used for the building models with the peak ground acceleration 0.05g. The selected soil types were soil type A, D and E which reflecting the common ground conditions in Malaysia. In general, the results showed that building models incorporating seismic design resulted in higher total material cost compared to non-seismic design and this is particularly true for soil type D and E only. The percentage difference of cost was in the range of -0.9% to 2.0%. These range of difference is relatively low and will not significantly affecting the construction cost of high-rise buildings in Penang. |
