Abstract
Current seismic design provisions allow structures to deform into inelastic range duringdesign level earthquakes since the chance to meet such event is quite rare. For this purpose, design baseshear is defined in current seismic design provisions as the value of elastic seismic shear force divided bystrength reduction factor, R (
Key Words
P-D effect; strength reduction factor; ductility factor.
