Recent earthquakes have revealed that conventional seismic design philosophy allows for large levels of nonstructural damage. Nonstructural earthquake damage results in extensive repair costs and lengthy functional disruptions, as nonstructural systems comprise the majority of building investment and are essential to building operations. A better understanding of the expected overall seismic performance of code-compliant buildings is needed. This study investigates the seismic performance of a conventional building. A 16-storey steel office building was designed using a modern seismic structural code(Eurocode 8). This study is the first to assess in detail the substantial earthquake repair costs expected in a modern Eurocode concentric braced frame structure, considering nonstructural systems with the FEMA P-58 procedure. The breakdown of total repair costs by engineering demand parameter and by fragility group is novel. The seismic performance assessment indicated that substantial earthquake repair costs are expected. Limitations of the Eurocode nonstructural damage methodology were revealed in a novel manner using FEMA P-58, as the prescribed drift limits did not minimize nonstructural repair costs. These findings demonstrate the need for design procedures that improve nonstructural seismic performance. The study results provide a benchmark on which to evaluate retrofit alternatives for existing buildings and design options for new structures.

湿害是由田间土壤含水量太高对作物造成的伤害。湿害已严重影响着大麦的生产,造成世界各国大麦生产不同程度减产,对我国尤其是长江中下游地区影响严重。有关大麦湿害耐湿性遗传和分子标记方面的报道还不多,难以满足大麦耐湿育种的需要。因此,开展有关大麦耐湿性的遗传和分子标记研究将对耐湿育种具有重要的指导作用。本研究利用Stirling×京裸11 F_2群体,初步发展了与耐湿基因相连锁的SSR分子标记。 目
