Multistory buildings designed to resist earthquakes
Earthquake resistant provisions of San Francisco building code were met by exclusive use of reinforced concrete in construction of eleven 13-story apartment buildings; X-shaped apartments have flat slab floors with wide flat beams over corridors; exterior walls are of bearing wall type without columns; interior partitions are of reinforced concrete to resist vertical as well as horizontal loads; extra cost of earthquake resistance was only 1 to 2% of total cost.
