Abstract
In recent years, with the increase of the number of high-rise buildings and the increase of the frequency of earthquakes, the requirement of seismic design of high-rise buildings is getting higher and higher. Therefore, this paper mainly studies the requirements of the existing seismic design code and the basis of designing the seismic performance of high-rise buildings. The results of this paper show that the performance-based seismic design method is the most popular and practical seismic design method at present. It also concluded that the seismic capacity of high-rise buildings can be improved by changing the calculation method of bearing capacity and adopting stable lightweight materials. In addition, this paper also introduces the new seismic methods such as preset yield mode, so as to improve the seismic ability of tall buildings as a whole. In the future, more new and innovative technologies will be applied to the seismic design of high-rise buildings to provide a stable and safe environment for people’s production and life.
