Title : ( An investigation on the seismic performance of reinforced concrete panel structures )
Authors: Behrooz Hassani , Abouzar Jafari ,Abstract
An investigation on the seismic performance of panel structures with permanent shuttering system is the subject of this article. Three building models with similar plan and different heights are taken into consideration. The nonlinear behavior of these structures are studied by PERFORM 3D software and its multi-layer shell finite elements with fiber sections. Carrying out the analysis, the performance level of each model is determined. According to the obtained results, it is concluded that the performance level of the structures which are designed based on the common codes is higher than their pre assumption, i.e. life safety.
