PUSHOVER ANALYSIS OUTPUT OF EXISTING BUILDING

For 500 YRP Earthquake

Performance Point
(V,D) = 768.179kN, 30.231mm

For 1000 YRP Earthquake

Performance Point
(V,D) = 825.678kN, 43.765mm
(Sa, Sd) = 0.258g, 26.458mm

Conclusion:
A Pushover analysis was performed to assess the performance level of the building at different level of
earthquake demands. As per the results, it can be asserted that the buildings performance is good in both
direction as it reached Immediate Occupancy level when subjected to the respective earthquake demand.
Other than that the level of performance is safe to withstand earthquakes.
