Project Title: Performance-Based Seismic Engineering: Benchmarking of Existing Building Evaluation Methodologies
Client: National Institute of Standards and Technology
Project Duration:
Purpose: The primary objective of this report is to benchmark evaluation methodologies for existing reinforced concrete buildings and present recommendations for improvement of the seismic evaluation procedures of ASCE/SEI 41-17, Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Existing Buildings. For this purpose, calculated results from implementing evaluation procedures described in applicable methodologies are compared to data available for eight reinforced concrete structures subjected to ground motion shaking.
