Description
Summary:Reinforced concrete structure is an effective system for resisting lateral loads. Seismic retrofitting of constructions vulnerable to earthquakes is a current problem of great political and social relevance. During the last sixty years, moderate to severe earthquakes have occurred in Morocco (specifically in Agadir 1960 and Hoceima 2004).Such events have clearly shown the vulnerability of the building stock in particular and of the built environment in general. Hence, it is very much essential to retrofit the vulnerable building to deal with the next damaging earthquake. To evaluate the performance of framed buildings under future expected earthquakes, a nonlinear static PUSHOVER analysis has been conducted. In this paper, we propose to assess the seismic vulnerability of a reinforced concrete building using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) for different zone.
