Response modification factors (R-Factor) are used to modify the elastic seismic response obtained from the linear elastic analysis to account for the effect of allowed damage. Recent studies show that UBC-97 code-based response modification factors are not valid for high-rise buildings. Where wind governs the design, their validity comes in question further. In this study, an actual 40- storied tall RC building located in Bangkok, Thailand is investigated in detail to determine the actual R-factor in each and every significant mode located in low to moderate seismic risk area with mean hourly wind gust of 90 MPH and exposure type-B. The code based designed building is analyzed using elastic displacement-based pushover analysis procedure in each and every mode to determine the modified R- factor. It is found that actual R-factor is in the order of only 1 to 1.25 in all significant modes. |
