Abstract

In this paper, the effect of base shear ratios between moment-resisting frames and shear walls on the seismic behavior factor of RC dual structures is evaluated. For this purpose, 12 building models that have 4, 8, and 12 stories, considered low-, medium-, and high-rise structures, with base shear wall contribution ratios ranging between 45 and 75%, were generated and designed according to Algerian seismic code RPA 99/Version 2003. Nonlinear static pushover analyses were carried out to compute the R factor components, such as ductility and overstrength factors, with the consideration of failure criteria at both the member and structural levels. According to the analysis results, the conjugate effect of the structure height and base shear wall contribution ratios could produce an undesirable effect on the RC dual structures under seismic action, such as instability failure due to P–∆ effects. In addition, the value of the seismic behavior factor increases as the base shear ratio of shear walls increases.
