The assessment of tall building of structure performance due to seismic effect in Malaysia

This research aims to develop fragility curves specific to tall concrete buildings in Malaysia. The study analyzes two building models, differing in the number of stories: a 30-story type I building and a 25-story type II building. The analysis involves pushover analysis and incremental dynamic analysis, considering gravity and wind loads as per the Malaysian standard practice (BS8110). 

The findings reveal that the inter-story drift ratio or damage measure values increase with higher peak ground accelerations. Additionally, the pushover analysis indicates that the 30-story model (type I building) exhibits higher base shear compared to the 25-story model (type II building), suggesting a correlation between base shear and building height. A total of eight fragility curves are constructed, representing the probability of exceeding IO and CP limit states
