Analysis of earthquake-resistant building structures using IMRFS and SMRFS methods.

The Moment Resisting Frame System (MRFS) is a structural system used to fulfill the seismic design aspect of a structure that functions to resist forces acting through flexure, shear, and axial actions, with its components and connections serving as binders. In this study, the building structure is modeled using two types of systems, the Intermediate Moment Resisting Frame System (IMRFS) and the Special Moment Resisting Frame System (SMRFS), under two different seismic intensity levels: high and moderate. The method employed in this research involves three building models with three different scenarios: a building with SMRFS in a high-intensity seismic location (D), an IMRFS building in a high-intensity seismic location (D), and an IMRFS building in a moderate-intensity seismic location (B). All three buildings are designed with the exact dimensions and floor plan configurations. The results of this study indicate that modeling a building with IMRFS in the exact seismic location, with the same floor plan configuration and component dimensions, shows that IMRFS modeling is not feasible in high-intensity seismic locations. However, it can function optimally in locations that comply with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) requirements for moderate-intensity seismic locations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
