Abstract
The paper discusses the main features of building codes on the construction and maintenance of buildings in seismic areas. Main attention is paid to changes in building codes requirements for frame buildings, as well as for the general seismic zoning maps for the period 1937-2014. The introduction provides an overview of the requirements of regulations from different countries on a visual assessment of buildings’ seismic stability on a quantitative assessment of the impact of the codes base changes on seismic resistance of the object, and a brief review of the developed consolidated system of the actual seismic resistance assessment of existing frame buildings. This study focused on the first and second tiers of seismic resistance evaluation system. The main part of the work is given as a table of standardized parameters, which should be followed in the design, new construction, renovation and operation of buildings that are built or placed in areas with seismicity of 6 grade or higher on the scale of seismic intensity according to DSTU B V.1.1-28:2010. The possible application of the results of a retrospective analysis for visual estimation of the actual seismic resistance of frame buildings, as well as their certification are described.
