How Not to Design for Moderate Seismic Regions
Based on a collection of building peer reviews in moderate seismic regions, this paper discusses the manifold ways that both the spirit and the letter of the building codes and seismic design provisions can be misinterpreted, resulting in designs that are both unsafe and uneconomical. In light of these examples, the paper discusses the challenge of achieving in the building code an appropriate balance between simplicity, sophistication, transparency and prescription. Specific attention is given to design approach, architectural coordination, constructability and cost.
