Abstract The main objective of this work is to carry out a comparative analysis between the methods and provisions of the Brazilian code ABNT NBR 15421:2006 and those of the ASCE/SEI 7 and the Eurocode 8, on the seismic design of structures. The similarities and differences between these standards, as far as the application of the Equivalent Lateral Forces method (ELFM) and the Response Spectrum method (RSM) are concerned, will be addressed. The responses will be evaluated for a case study that will be modelled by the SCIA Engineer 17 software. This paper also presents some comments on the detailing of reinforced concrete structures to ensure a good performance under seismic loading, allowing for a more favourable interpretation of the seismic analysis results.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a new bond slip model for reinforced concrete structures. It consists in an interface element (3D) which represents the interface between concrete (modeled in 3D) and steel, modeled using 1D truss elements. Design/methodology/approach – The formulation of the interface element is presented and verified through a comparison with an analytical solution on an academic case. Finally, the model is compared with experimental results on a reinforced concrete tie. Findings – Contrary to the classical perfect or “no-slip” relation which supposes the same displacement between steel and concrete, the proposed model is able to reproduce both global (force-displacement curve) and local (crack openings) results. Originality/value – The proposed approach, applicable to large-scale computations, represents a valuable alternative to the no-slip relation hypothesis to correctly capture the crack properties of reinforced concrete structures.
