Abstract

In this study, design approaches used for the seismic design of non-structural components subjected to earthquakes are compared according to the Turkish Building Earthquake Code 2018 (TBEC 2018) and the ASCE/SEI 7-22 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures standard. In the scope of this study, a school building designed in accordance with TBEC 2018 has been modeled. After the analyses of the school building structure, seismic forces acting on an imaginary generator as an example non-structural component were determined using equivalent seismic load and nonlinear time history methods specified in TBEC 2018 and ASCE/SEI 7-22. A parametric study was conducted for this component, considering different floors, and all results were compared with tables and charts. In addition, raised floor shake table tests were conducted at the ITU Structural and Earthquake Engineering Laboratory. The design forces obtained from the relevant codes were compared with the experimental results to confirm their consistency.
