Drift and Damage Considerations in Earthquake-Resistant Design of Reinforced Concrete Buildings
The importance of considerations related to drift and damage in earthquake-resistant design of medium-rise reinforced concrete building structures is investigated in this study. Simple (linear) methods used to calculate estimates of actual drift can easily be communicated to engineers and architects responsible for design and detailing of a building.
