Influence of the Malaysia's National Annex for seismic design on the size and reinforcement weight of low-rise buildings

In early 2017, Malaysia's national annex for the seismic design of structures was published and led to some concerns regarding the increase in the construction cost of buildings. This study investigated the change in the reinforcement weights of beams and columns due to seismic design based on...

The results showed that buildings with low ductility class constructed on the soft soil had the largest increase in the reinforcement weights compared to the conventional design.
