Earthquake-Resistant Design Philosophy for buildings: (a) Minor (Frequent) Shaking – Components of seismic structural configuration: (a) overall geometry, (b) structural elements
No/Hardly any damage, (b) Moderate Shaking – Minor structural damage, and some non-structural (e.g., moment resisting frames and structural walls), and (c) significant non-structural elements
damage, and (c) Severe (Infrequent) Shaking – Structural damage, but NO collapse (e.g., façade glass)
