| Summary: | In recent decades Performance Based Seismic Design (PBSD) is widely used for evaluation of the structural performance because of its capability and simplicity to estimate inelastic response of structure. On the other hand, some times in construction based on architectural decision, size of beams are being decreased. The aim of this attempt is to investigate the effect of beam size on structural behavior based on PBSD method using simple procedure. Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM) was implemented using set of RC frames (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 story with three bays) and ETABS2000 to determine the weakness of the frames system due to their reduced beam size. The performance of the frames was measured at Life Safety damage control level. |
