Seismic Assessment and Strengthening of an Existing Non‐Conforming Multi‐Storey Steel Building
Existing steel structures show a wide variability in terms of structural conception and typology of adopted resisting systems. Moreover, these structures do not often comply with existing codes, showing severe structural inadequacies in many cases. An example of this type of buildings is the existing non‐conforming six‐storey steel building described in this article. The selected building features both Moment Resisting Frames (MRFs) along its longitudinal direction and Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) in the transverse direction. The seismic performance of the investigated structure was assessed in accordance with Italian NTC2018 and EN1998‐3, showing unsatisfactory performance and rather poor capacity. Therefore, seismic upgrading solution was designed and its efficiency was assessed and compared to the performance of the original configuration.
