摘要

The seismic performance and structural response of buildings are crucial considerations in earthquake-prone regions. This research chapter focuses on the dynamic analysis of a G + 10 building located in an area susceptible to the devastating effects of earthquakes in the Turkey–Syria region. The study aims to evaluate the building's behavior and seismic performance under the specific conditions of a seismic event, considering critical factors that could potentially lead to structural failure. The research methodology begins with a comprehensive seismic hazard assessment. This assessment involves analyzing historical seismic data, studying geological surveys, and considering regional tectonic characteristics to estimate ground motion parameters. By understanding the potential for seismic activity in the region, more accurate predictions of earthquake-induced ground motions can be made. The G + 10 building under investigation is accurately modeled, taking into account its architectural and structural elements, material properties, and foundation conditions. This meticulous modeling ensures a realistic representation of the building's behavior under earthquake-induced loads.
