Seismic checking of panel zone for steel frame is very important in seismic checking of steel structure. This paper starts with the comprehension of new seismic design code of 2010, and the calculation formula of shear strength and yield bearing capacity for the panel zone is derived when the beam height in two side of joint is unequal, resorting to current Design Code for the Steel Structures and Seismic Design Code for Buildings. The formula is utilized for an engineering example in this paper, and it can provide some references for the design of steel structure.

Although current design code can manage the separate action of a fire or an earthquake, which causes a significant threat to the human life and to the integrity of the structures, the dual effect of a Post- Earthquake Fire (PEF) stands as a major hassle to designers and rescuers alike. Algerian seismic design code, RPA99v2003, with no exception does not consider the possibility of a subsequent fire after an earthquake, whose effect can significantly weaken the steel frame and destroy its fire protection. This paper presents the evaluation of the fire resistance for a two-storey steel portal frame, damaged by an earthquake simulated through spectrum response of Chlef, scaled three in the Algerian Seismic Code. First, the design of the steel structure considers seismic actions by a static nonlinear analysis. Second, it is followed by a fire analysis using an ISO834 standard fire model, considering that the structure is partially damaged. The finite element simulation and numerical analysis of the structure in post-earthquake fire condition yield the bilinear capacity curve at ambient temperature and the variation of local and global displacement at high temperature. A final comparison of the damaged (PEF) and undamaged (FIRE) frames subjected to the different fire scenarios is done.

Abstract. After the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake and the 2017 Pohang earthquake struck the Korean peninsula, securing financial stability for earthquake risk has become an important issue in Korea. Many domestic researchers are currently studying potential earthquake risk. However, empirical analysis and statistical approach are ambiguous in the case of Korea because no major earthquake has ever occurred on the Korean peninsula since Korean Meteorological Agency started monitoring earthquakes in 1978. This study focuses on evaluating possible losses due to earthquake risk in Seoul, the capital of Korea, by using catastrophe model methodology integrated with GIS (Geographic Information System). The building information such as structure and location is taken from the building registration database and the replacement cost for building is obtained from insurance information. As the seismic design code in KBC (Korea Building Code) is similar to the seismic design code of UBC (Uniform Building Code), the damage functions provided by HAZUS-MH are used to assess the damage state of each building in event of an earthquake. 12 earthquake scenarios are evaluated considering the distribution and characteristics of active fault zones in the Korean peninsula, and damages with loss amounts are calculated for each of the scenarios.

In FY 2000, a 3-year testing program of eroded piping was initiated with the following objectives: 1) to ascertain the seismic safety margins for eroded piping designed under the current seismic design code, 2) to clarify the elasto-plastic response and ultimate strength of eroded nuclear piping. A series of tests on eroded piping components and eroded piping systems was planned. In this paper, the results of those tests are presented and analyzed, focusing on the influence of the form and the number of thinned-wall portions on the fatigue life of the piping.

This paper describes the development of seismic design provisions of highway bridges will be revised in Taiwan reflecting the destructive damage in the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake. After the Chi-Chi earthquake, the revised seismic design force and other related requirements in the seismic design code for highway bridges are developed in Taiwan. In addition to the conventional force based design, a capacity checking level is considered for the near-fault sites by limiting the ultimate capacity to exceed the maximum possible seismic demand. The development of seismic design force and the capacity check method are described.
