Abstract
The SERCB (Seismic Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Building) is a popular
software of seismic evaluation for existing RC buildings in Taiwan. It provides a
powerful visualization function of plastic hinge setting for RC members as preprocessor
of pushover analysis as well as nonlinear time history analysis, preventing the manmade
mistakes and enhancing the work efficiency. In addition, It also gives an automatic
connection to the commercial software such as ETABS, MIDAS, etc. to perform
nonlinear structural analysis, and a postprocessor in justifying if the seismic capacity of
RC building is qualified or not. As a result, the SERCB is well used by the structural

engineers herein.
This project intends to extend SERCB to deal with seismic retrofitting. Some
available retrofitting works including (1) improving the RC columns by RC covering,
CFRP wrapping or steel jacketing to increase ductility or strength, (2) installing wind
wall to enhance strength, (3) inserting or attaching steel frame to increase stiffness are
studied and discussed. The plastic hinge property of the RC member retrofitted is able to
be determined and its precision is assured by investigation of practical experimental
results. Some case studies are conducted by the software updated. The completion of this
project can promote SERCB to perform the analysis of seismic evaluation and retrofitting
for existing RC buildings.
